Thank you, Scott & GT182, for the FM info. And thank _you_, AC, for those extremely interesting insider's comments of real-life WWII aircraft - well, as Richard said already there's NO substitute for the real thing! But anyways: BoB2 looks good, behaves good (or so they say anyway) even in a lo-...

Still the Hurri for me Though I definitely gotta try the Biffer too...

Yeah, I'm interested in this too!

Yep, AFAIK this is the normal shutdown sequence for WWII-era AC. You'll get too rich a mixture for your next start if you turn ignition off 1st.

Emergencies, OTOH, are a different matter altogether I presume...?

I beg to differ. The majority @ UbiZoo are actually pretty satisfied with the new FM, myself included, but the whiners are just too loud...

But yep, it's not called UbiZoo for nothing

The MkIIC arrived well after the Battle of Britain. Mk1s only in the BoB, some with two position pitch control only. Yep, that's true and historically accurate (& kudos for that). But who the h**l cares since Hurris rule anyway, huh? ;) No, but I WILL ride the Hurri, be it MK1 w/ Brownings or a...

As for me, it'll be the Hurri. No speed demon that one, but I just _LOVE_ the frickin' plane, and those 20mm. Hispanos just plain ROCK!!! I'm actually so badly hooked that all I've done lately has been playing off-line Hurri Mk.IIc vs. bunch of Ju-88A-4s in IL-2 ;) And we of course have to remember ...

Any comments on this setup:

AMD Athlon 1.3GHz
512MB RAM
GeForce4 64MB memory

Will I be able to run the game with mid-quality graphics settings? Yeah, I know, this computer is an old piece of c**p... But what can I do - no money for a new one yet

Thank you Scott! That clears it all...

Happily waiting.

I'd like to see an official statement on this matter, this being as badly late as it is. I mean, you DO hit all kinds of snags in a large software project, but "2 weeks, be sure" just doesn't IMHO cut it anymore... Sorry if I sound like a whiner, but I'd REALLY love to see this sim out &am...
