When you want to sink a carrier group, you don't bomb them while 3 feet above the water, and you don't bounce the bombs into the ship

Those ship gunner must have been blind if they couldn't hit a low flying plane like that.

Easily the best IL2 videos come from you, along with some really good gmod ones.
You have a good channel.

It's due to weather, the fog and the altittude I was at. I found that flying 10m higher meant they could see me atleast 100m further away. When I first tried this in broad daylight I was taken out by naval cannons at about 500m.
Il2 is a classic right up there with Red Baron 3D

That was absolutely amazing, may I ask what mod you used for the particles? They didn't look like the vanilla ones.

Red baron you say? Dude, that was my first ever game! Not the ugly 3D sequel, the DOS one. Hey, remember this?

I actually still have an original copy of Red Baron on one of those old 5-inch floppy disks, along with my old copy of Red Baron 2 on cd.

Fuck yeah, me too! Praised be the days when view distance was limited by your crappy resolution and you tried to make out what single moving pixels in the distance could be
I played the shit out of Jane's Attack Squadron when I was a wee lad.

Anyone who says it isn't probably just doesn't own a joystick and/or couldnt be bothered to learn how to start a plane.
I remember having a copy of Air warrior somewhere, that game was brilliant, me and a friend would team up on the same keyboard, one operating the guns and flaps and technical stuff whilst the other flew with the mouse, we didn't have a joystick. we managed a 52 killstreak in a foker dr2. good times.
I'm still waiting for you to upload them adv. dupes
Also sick game, I think I should blow the dust off my joystick and try it sometime
