Wow, this looks awesome!

Wow, amazing job so far! That paint scheme is obviously really nice, but I can tell that it's a PITA to try and recreate accurately. How long has the hand placing taken you?

Yeah, that's weird. Either way, DCS has definitely turned a corner. It's such a amazingly beautiful game now. The clouds are phenomenal.

I'm hoping, nay praying, that a GDR skin releases with it. *crosses fingers*

So glad it worked! Was worried it wouldn't. Great shots btw!

I just started flying it as well. It's a lot of fun, but I'm definitely still learning.

@Ludwig, if there is no ScreenShots folder at Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\ScreenShots, go ahead and create one. Print Screen *should* then work.

One of us! One of us! One of us!

Nothing like attack helicopters and Soviet-era 70's porn music.

This is pretty cool! Definitely let us know what you think after you download them.

I've never heard of Historynet, but after googling them, I guess they're owned by the same people who published Armchair General magazine, which I used to see in the pharmacy and convenience stores in my area. Strange how they don't date anything... I don't know enough about the history of rotary engines, or how they operate or perform, to say what I think about the article. But its definitely fun reading.

Chill's videos are outstanding. Like this one - a rotary touch and go:

All I want for Christmas is a Fitter.

Yeah, Cuban paint schemes are really nice.

For people with JG1 access: https://forum.jg1.org/topic/8891-jg1-discords/

Brit, Lady and I use Discord all the time. But there is so much racing stuff going on, anything squadron related we post gets lost. So we just stopped. But with a tighter page, dedicated solely towards getting people together, I think it could be very effective.

I'll start thinking along those lines and get back to you guys.

The idea of a dedicated PUG area is a good one. I am, however, concerned about adding another sub-forum to a board already filled with sub-forums. For Brit and I, who see everything , I feel like we need to be pruning back, not expanding. PUG messages don't need to be kept for perpetuity. 4./JG 1 communicates through WhatsApp about their day to day schedules. And Discord basically does the same thing for those who check it. No reason to keep messages designed to be abandoned after the date or time. Perhaps our current JG1 Discord needs to be given over fully to JG1RT, and a new JG1 Discord created that's cleaner, simpler and more direct.

Yeah, wounding in 1946 didn't really work. You were kind of alive or dead - Schrodinger's pilot? Much the same way DCS currently handles it. BoX is much better in that regard, as it actually gives you an idea that the pilot has been hurt.

I love the bear. Going further down this rabbit hole:

Not sure right now. Still working out ideas. But it would probably be helicopter and CAS focused.
