  1. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=144344 It's hard to wait, but this is completely understandable. And I approve. Better to have it right. The link also has some great updates regarding DCS WWII, the MiG-29 for Flaming Cliffs 3, the DCS: L-39 Albatros, and the DCS: F/A-18C Hornet.
  2. Great shots! I've got to start playing again. Haven't had the chance recently. I noticed a small patch came out for Arma III. Was it anything important?

  4. How cool! Can't wait to see the finished product.
  5. For those who still have IL-2: 1946 on their computers: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=229298
  6. http://www.fallen.io/ww2/ I thought this was an extremely impressive presentation. The numbers are staggering. And the video really puts all the casualties in perspective. Especially when you see them visually, side-by-side.

  8. For everyone who loves engines so loud, it's deafening. http://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/the-flight-deck-of-an-aircraft-carrier-is-loud-as-hell-1708541482

  10. http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/DCS_World_Summer_Sale_2015/ Great time to get the MiG-21bis, or the MiG-15bis.
  11. Hi MatAWG, Thanks for posting! I'll drop you an email tonight.
  12. Cool, I'll have to check them out!
  13. I've always been a fan of the S-16 (and the S-22 too), for no other reason than it was designed by Igor Sikorsky (and I live in Connecticut). I agree it doesn't do a lot for us overall, but it's great to have new content! And, as you said, the early war machines are a great bunch to pull from. I hope this means they'll start supporting RoF again!
  14. http://riseofflight.com/forum/topic/45597-have-we-been-put-back-shelf/?p=635922 This is great news!
  15. http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/footage-of-the-dc-flyovers-emergency-landing-1705947436 Thought the video was interesting. It's a TBM Avenger, during the May 8th DC fly-over.
  16. Hi Rookie, I'll drop you an email tonight.
  17. Hi Rookie, When we're in-between events (like we are now), we'll usually just jump on Wargrounds or Syndicate, and have fun. It's good practice, and it gives us a chance to try out different aircraft. When we're preparing for a tournament, or when a specific training issue has been brought up, we'll have more organized practices with specific subjects of discussion. Usually we'll train for the first hour, followed by a second "fun" hour on an open server. This way, we can try out what we were talking about in a "live fire" environment. Regarding a "leave of absence", just let me know you'll be away. We have a number of reserve pilots who stop back every few months.
  18. Brit summed it up nicely. Overall, JG1 is a fun group that really enjoys flying. We try very hard to focus on teamwork and group tactics. But real life always comes first. So, it's understood that you'll be around sometimes, and that you may not be around other times. It's been a lot of fun flying with you! So, I hope we'll see you at our practice on Wednesday!
  19. Hi Tzigy, Thanks for the application! I'll drop you an email tonight.
  20. Very cool! We should try and fly.
  21. Looking good! Voted.
  22. I saw this in the news! Such a great story. I'm glad she got the chance to fly in a Spitfire again.
  23. Very close call! Reminds me of the bridge scene in The Blue Max.
