Parachutes in Flying Circus

[Dr1falcon500]

There are a lot of examples of German planes using parachutes well before their time. The earliest use of chutes by German pilots seems to be June 1918. Yet in 1916 there are Halberstadt CLII crews leaping from their kites and parachuting down. It's like a time warp with some planes that didn't fly at that time. Not much sense of history or reality from the developers. Is this a flight sim or a video game?

I think both. You can find more things not historically correct. Like beker gun or not realstic/authentic FM in some planes. But then so what, enjoy what it  is , and it's enough to do so IMHO.

Just shoot them instead. Fix the space-time continuum and practice your gunnery at the same time.

I shoot down every parachute I see.

Be it WW1 WW2 or any Era.

 

Just a little bit of trolling, like tea bagging.

In time the career is waiting the last plane package… after their arrival the career will get an more accurate planeset
