i tried to play this sim as ww2 sightseeing simulator

[NoelGallagher]

crusing over armstredam gives me such a chill feeling 

i know there's a better suited sim for this kind of thing (microsoft flight sim)

but that doens't give you the landscape of 1940's right?

whenever i got tired of shooting things and bombing

i just cruise over the beautiful land of europe hahaha

it works

I do this in the U2/Po2 on occasion.  The Kuban is especially beautiful at low speeds.

Have you already tried to make the flight from the south to the north following the Rhine?! It is a great flight and more!  

It is a great game.

The "havoc over the Kuban" campaign does a really good job at showcasing the beauty of that map.

In Il-2 Desert Wings... I've spent a huge amount of time in the Bf-108... there is something incredibly charming about it... just fast enough and with good enough visibility for sight-seeing, but still with the limited power you'd expect of a civilian aircraft... and it really is pleasant to just explore the maps.

 

Nothing beats having a small civilian plane to explore in. In Il-2 1946 the RWD8 and RWD10 mods were really brilliant (the Miles Magister was also fun - but not quite as much fun as the Parasoles).

 

In BoX/Great Battles I tend to tour in faster fighters or in the WW1 aircraft (sometimes the U-2VS)... and it is fun.

I really wish we had the Ju-188 (or failing that the Fw-189)! The cockpit of the Arado 234 will be far too cluttered - but the Ju-188 and Fw-189 had truly exceptionally clear cockpits... better than the He-111!!

You know what is funny? I don't really get into civilian flying usually - I really enjoy flying gliders in the original Flight Gear (to this day - there is something about the simple thermals and small almost intimate locations) and I've modelled aircraft in X-Plane... but I don't really do civil flying... but in these sims - I loved the Bf-108, RWD-8, RWD-10, some of the Flying Circus aircraft (and the Demoiselle and Farman/Boxkite in FS-WW1)... so it is very much aircraft specific I suppose?

I did that, too.. and while some details are nice.. like the cuban straigh crossing cable car or the greek museum building .. But I was kinda dissapointed that there is no Fort Eben Emael near Mastricht on the Bodenplatte map

Its even better with the enhanced texture mods too ?. I seriously wish the dev's would port some of the various texture mods into the base game like they did with the 4k pits.

The Kuban map is absolutelly stunning, I do scenery flights there often.

I also love flying “training flights”, especially along Zeeland and the Dutch coast.
