Lee reacted to Vonrd in Masters of the Air Debut
Starts in one week. I have high hopes... Please don't screw it up Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks, and Gary Goetzman!

So, will the Germans get this to balance?

What about the Russians?

The WACO CG-4A has a glide ratio of 12:1 and sink rate of 400 ft/min at 60 mph. You initiate landing by releaseing the tow line. Upon landing you become a rifleman.
I prefer sailplanes myself.

I’m still using an earlier version of neck safer with no issues.

Here's the latest. Glass plates / platters along with a video of the process (his is a bit larger than mine but the same moves. The final spin is really exciting.

Vik, good to hear from you. As a fellow 73 year old I fully understand and sympathize with your situation. Hopefully your optometrist will work something out. Visual target acquisition is overrated anyway, I just follow the bullet stream back to its origin. My optometrist tells me I’m starting to get cataracts, so there’s that for me to look forward to. Lately I’ve been pushing the idea that the 70’s are the new 60’s. What do you think?
S!

I uninstalled Steam and Steam VR and just use the runtime switcher to enable Flying Circus to run on my Reverb G2.
Launch Windows Mixed Reality Portal then launch Flying Circuis. Works great with the added bonus of getting rid of unneeded software (Steam and its associated components).

So once everybody's all setup, maybe we can coordinate some similar types/routings of aircraft and do "virtual fly-ins" to specific locations, maybe? Doing some loose non official low maintenance flying events in a civ sim seems like an awesome way to have a chat night when we're not working on combat related stuff!

Well hey, that works. Thanks.
Was really struggling to find one for the longest time.

Yes, HD space. My install uses 350 GB.
I have the Premium Deluxe version and Reno Air Races along with all the World Updates.
I connect my iPad's FltPlan Go app over Wi-Fi for moving maps.
The pms50 Garmin mods for GTN750 and GNS530.
AuthentiKit Tuning App with vjoy to get the trim wheel functioning on my Honeycomb Quadrant.
Then 11 addon aircraft I purchased, mostly GA singles plus 3 freeware gliders.
I'm currently checking out the Eastern US mountain ridge system in game where a bunch of glider record distance flights were made. It's a shame Tom Knauff retired and sold Ridge Soaring Glider Port last year. It's going to become a horse farm, although it's still in the game (79N). Took my Schweizer 1-26 there once, but the ridge wasn't working that week.

I know that I haven't been participating with JG1 for some time now so I wanted to check in and explain why. Unfortunately I am at the age where problems pop up (73). I've picked up a problem with my left eye where the vision has diverged dramatically from my right eye. Additionally, it seems to wander a bit from day to day. Makes it really hard to come up with glasses that correct the vision for all circumstances. Indeed, as I type, the letters are slightly blurry since my current glasses are optimized for reading books and not for computer distances. Really screws up tactical flying since I just can't see small targets at distances with results you can well imagine. Most of my flying now is with DCS and involves carrier ops since the big mirror on the supercarrier module works well even though I can't see the actual mirror on the boat at any distance. Getting pretty good with the T-45. Nevertheless, the problem has completely screwed tactical flying. Still playing around with my optometrist trying to find a prescription that works but not having much luck and I have to admit I am not terribly optimistic. Works well for books and my distance vision for driving is fine even without glasses. Just can't make the book, computer, driving combination work. Anyway, best wishes to everyone.

I believe we have a squadron member who flies occasionally with a game pad. This might be of interest to him.
