Accept the technical challenge of flying bombers or attack aircraft like the German Junkers 88, Heinkel and Stuka, the Italian Fiat BR-20, or the British Bristol Blenheim or Beaufighter.

    I had the honour of thanking a veteran of the Battle of Crete at a random meeting about ten years ago. That noble man was in tears. May his fighting spirit endure for all time.

    That is quite an interesting thing to happen, it does indeed look like you 'threw' a piston on that one, gotta watch WEP usage, keep it short. Good show.

    I hope they update the graphics more for this game, it still doesn't look too realistic, but the mechanics of the game are fantastic. And I loved the paintjob on the hurricane. Try to gain more height and speed in your attacks! Great video.

    Possibly the only BOB Hurricane Op conducted in a cap. No helmet, or oxygen! Incidentally, at the time, 257 was commanded by Bob Stanford Tuck, one of the greats of Fighter Command.

      over temperature you can see @16:45 water temp is 130 Deg C, max is 120, over that and engine will degrade quickly. Two things that damage engine fast is over temp and/or over reving the engine. lots of lower speed and high engine settings will raise the temp, something you have to keep watching.

    Besides blowing your engine, not to shabby. I hate it when the A.I. continues to cut in front of you. If I'm firing, when that happens(repeatedly) I say "Oh well" and continue shooting. The game will either stop cutting you off, or, you'll be a German Ace!

    No wonder that was a bit of a hairy landing: your rudder and your stabilizers were pretty chewed up. One of those 109s must have tagged you, or was it a case of "friendly fire"? Either that, or your Hurri has got a moth problem!😀

    What equipment (joystick, VR gear) do you use to play this? Do you use a full rig with HOTAS and rudder pedals or a simpler joystick rudder combo?

    When you see the aircrafts all gray or as if they were under the shadow you have to delete the content of the cache folder (or the entire folder) located in Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover

    What's up with the lack of direct lighting in the replays? Is that something that's a known issue or only on your computer?
    I haven't played Clod Blitz in a while but I seem to recall lighting working fine in the replays back when tobruk released.

      No I think you have a point there, it was recorded /rendered in 1080 but it looks like TH-cam’s processing has almost downgraded the resolution. Not sure why that’s happened but I’ll have a look into it

    Book store? Book shop is how people used to talk in the UK until about 10 years ago. We also don't say gotten here since the 19th Century, it's archaic. I do enjoy these, but the American English is ahistorical.
