RE: Calling all lurkers (and forumites) - STATUS UPDATE please!

<t> I disappeared for awhile after nearly finishing my game with BradfordKay. Unfortunately, we got hit with the pilot bug in Jun/Jul 1945 IIRC. Played WITE and WITW for awhile. Then went on to Naval Command. Now its almost exclusively DCS in VR. Nothing like shoving an AIM-120 up the tailpipe of an ...

RE: OT: Dunkirk the Movie!

<t> I didn't like it either. In fact, I walked out after one hour. The movie reminds me of another movie that promised similar accuracy... TMTSNBN.<br/>

I thought there was very little historical accuracy. I was expecting something more along the lines of Band of Brothers, Saving Private ...

Another Win 10 upgrade issue...

<t> I upgrade from Windows 7.1 to Windows 10 recently. At first, I had horrible lag problems with the cursor, etc... but the -deepcolor switch fixed that.<br/>

However, I also have a different problem that I haven't heard mentioned. While playing the game, it frequently minimizes the game to ...

RE: B-17G of the CAF

<r> I had the good fortune to fly in in CAF's B-17G "Sentimental Journey" last August. It wasn't cheap but it was an amazing experience. It's much smaller inside than I had thought. It gave me a much better insight of what it must have been like trying to get out of a burning, falling Fort. <br ...

The player should be able to specify the type of pattern ...
