Someone called Enigma on youtube asked me about the basis of the calculations. The code is available on github at the link I provided with MIT license, so anyone can get it and do anything they want with it, provided they keep a copy of the license. Basically this calculator gets your plane's heading and speed. Knowing the wind's speed and heading it calculates the relative wind heading which you must input in the bomber sight. It is just getting the difference between two vectors. It does NOT take into account target altitude or QFE or whatever, just the speed and heading. The rest is up to you Cheers!

Totally on purpose. That squirrel looked funny at me

Hello all, After a long time with no videos - waiting for an upgrade to provide decent video quality - I present you with an idea brewing since Bodenplatte release
-
I've updated the engine spec sheet with missing planes from Bodenplatte. I have not included the Me-262 since I don't think it fits this sheet due to totally different operation of jet engines.

Hi all, Made a very simple wind heading calculator for use in bombsight mode. It is a simple web page with javascript, so it runs well on mobile phones or tablets (at least android). https://spiff.ddns.net/il2bcalc/ Github project (relevant code is Javascript inside index.html) https://github.com/nunoi/il2bcalc Some screenshots below Normal mode for regular screens Small mode for mobile Cheers!

Captain Spiff has become totally obsessed with the Spitfire Mk IX. He takes it for some spins.
