Catfish2 Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 .. buy this plane single or as a collector's plane when i purchased BoS, or do i have to additionally buy BoM to fly it? Thanks, Catfish
PatrickAWlson Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Premium edition available for $20 right now. $2 per plane. Why buy just one plane when you can get 10 of them and the map Edited July 14, 2020 by PatrickAWlson 2

Actually i bought IL2 because of this plane, not that i do not like the others... my father first got his first apprenticeship at Junkers in Dessau, and later worked for them. Yes i guess i'm getting old lol. There are not much books about the JU 88, i read "Feinde in der Nacht" by Spoden, "Er flog an meiner Seite" by Mortzfeld (more a novel but the author obviously knew a bit) and "Kampfflieger zwischen Eismeer und Sahara: In meinem Fall Ju 88" by Stahl. There are also Len Deighton's "Bomber" and "Fighter" books describing tactics and defense, all worth a read. Thanks and greetings, Catfish 1

PatrickAWlson Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Toe brakes are your friend. The Ju88 is a good plane to have as a favorite. It flew beginning to end so there is a lot you can do with it.

I already have several emergency landing at forward airstrips or dead stick ditch landing on the frontline under my belt
Lusekofte Posted July 17, 2020 Posted July 17, 2020 Oh. 5 minutes ago, Alexmarine said: Good luck Those Migs are deadly. I found Stalingrad quite survivable but difficult. Only flown 11 missions but no really impossible missions. One should think it would be the other way around.
1CGS LukeFF Posted July 17, 2020 1CGS Posted July 17, 2020 I had a 44-mission career in the Ju 88 end on the Stalingrad map, because I stayed too long in a burning plane. That was really stupid, because I could have bailed out and would have been able to progress to the next mission, since I was over friendly territory at the time. ? 3

Ok I believe you reccomended me Stalingrad career on JU 88. I think it is the most fun career I flown so far, thanks. Had less time and Ice ring campsign came along. I think I stay at Stalingrad and see how far I get
