The stall speed could be lowered by opening up the canopy and exposing that ginormous cap to the airflow. It provided 17% more lifting surface.

 

 

Poorman's airbrake.?

Peaked Cap is of a caliber seldom displayed, even wider than Red Star Marshall's on Parade ground 

It really was hilariously big.

Ain´t gonna happen. If your lucky you´ll find them in DCS before 2026...

Joking aside...I'm curious about FC.

WWI is a great fit for this engine IMO.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Me too! We need promising career mode for FC and new western map WW1.

Absolute classic that song. Everytime I hear it, or Fortunate Son for that matter, I can't help thinking of Napalm, F4's and Huey's...

Get some!...

Pretty sure I read that the render hasn't even been finished or turned over to 1C for them to do the FM. They were speaking of several months before this one is released, so me and any others foolish enough to have pre purchased the IAR will to wait until mid year at best most likely, but Mum's the word.

Yeah I pre ordered (as usual) but have written it off for now. Won't be doing it again unfortunately, I'm not so happy with the way things are going lately.

Well to be fair to the two chaps building the IAR, I expected that it would take a long time, but not as long as it appears this project will take to conclude. That is on me and my hopeful expectations. Carry on gents, She is looking beautiful and I still look forward to flying her someday.:good:

This guy must have been a killer with the laaay-deees, what with the moustachio and the saucer cap and whatnot.

At first sight He has the look of an actor in a Musical of the 30's.........

But mind to imagine what awaited him -if he survived : from Comedy to Tragedy, just a gleam ...too sad !

to put in perspective
BOBP was released 7.11.2019
BON was announced as pre purchase on 26.11.2019 with the whole planeset, map and everything.
BON was released 7. september last year, and still not a peep about whats coming next.
 
 

Well the long time between announcement and release was likely due to COVID. (Not that development for a modern sim would be quick anyway, but still.)

The guy on the right is the 9th FG ace Ion Dobran.  He survived the war and passed away in September 2021, at  the respectable age of 102.

He was not complaining about that with that post, it was ment to demonstrate that it took 19 days betwen BoB was full relised and next DLC BoN was anaounced with all details. To deonstrate that what we have now is far from normal as its now pased few months with no anouncment on whats next since last DLC was fully relised. I would like to remained that BoBP was anounced while BoK was still in development also, so even before past DLC was finished we get new on what next DLC is and detailed plan of it... so this situation is not normal and something is off with this long wait to tell folks clearly whats next. As from what is said not clearly untill now, only real option for whats next is , no more DLCs for this game, and new game is being developed since last year, will new game be for PC, consols, mobiles, MIT level full motion sim only who knows, will it be WW2 or not, who knows, will it be lke its now or but priciyer with less stuff, free to play with NFTs and bitcoins or 20$ per month subscribtion who knows, all wee know is we dont know and if you look how previously things were done it didnt take so long to inform ppl who buy stuff on whats next.

@Wardog5711, If I remember the live stream Interview correctly... There was a commitmemt o do such a stream once a month. Did these happen and I missed it?

I mean it was a commitment to the community and it would be more then fair to inform, if thinks have changed.

 

Thanks a lot!

@T24_Martin

Back when we did the first stream, the initial thought was to do more video type DD's and maybe a quarterly stream. More in line with what is done with Caliber.

But like a lot of plans, they change.  As the CM's were gathering the topics of interest on both the EN and RU forums, it became obvious that the majority of the topics were still need to know (1CGS internal) and not ready for public discussion. That was confirmed when we got our submitted topic plans returned to us. ?

There wasn't much reason to go the the time and expense of setting up a stream that would be 1 minute long. The choice was made to hold off more streams until more content that can be discussed and shown is available.  

And no, there is no timetable for that yet. Any date given would be TBD and if it slipped, you know the result.

@Wardog5711 thanks for the clarification!

 

Maybe the something in between would be good. 20 Min stream with some info and reasonable time in between to keep the community up to date and the amount of infos to share manageable.

 

My experience ist... Wait for the 100% solution takes too long, be ok with 85%. There will always be changes ?

Sorry, but as of right now WIP stuff isn't going to get posted.

Having an incomplete model/animation/function that may change substantially as it progresses get spread across the internet is a no-go.

2 minutes after it debuted here, it would be all over social media and somebody would be writing in their blog about how the new stuff looks like rubbish.

That position might change in the near future. But when is not up to me and still TBD.

No.

That statement is directed primarily at the new project and the folks wanting more info on it.

For IL-2 GB, there will be DD's when things are ready to be shown like they have always been.

I never know they are coming until the night before, or the morning of posting.

I'm not aware of any changes to that plan at this time.

  • Is there another "Battle of" coming to the great battles series or was Normandy the last one?
    • If there is going to be another "Battle of" is there a plan on when to announce it?
  • Are currently released "Battle of" products including collector aircraft going to be compatible with "the new project"?
  • Has the previously mentioned "to be announced" collector aircraft been decided on by the devs or still being decided?
  • Is there a status update on the Career mode for Flying Circus?
  • Is there a status update on the 1918 map for Flying Circus
  • Is Flying Circus 3 still planned or has it been shelved?

 

A couple of ideas for DD's I think would settle some concerns for some.
