Question: When doing a crash landing, is it possible to land it (the plane) after ejection? I have always wondered if you lined it up and cut throttle before touchdown, can it land safely? Thus, like the pilot had a heart attack or stroke and didn't pilot the plane for the landing.
I remember playing the Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator series as a kid. Having not played any new flight simulators since about 2006, it's honestly mind-blowing to see how far they've come.
Remember the original IL2 sturmovik? I could play the map editor all night long what a brilliant sim series this is. Another suggestion is Silent Hunter (I played the second and third) it’s a WW2 submarine simulator fantastic sim as well
mission turned out well overall really suprised by how my A-20 made it back to base, fun fact on the hug at the end as soon as i put in power the engines died on me XD she'd had enough by that point.
@@hasina1461 thats crazy, considering the main reason people love you guys is because of your sense of humour, real world pilots that I fly with also have a sense of humour, one recently got a light bollocking from Wattisham approach for not having his transponder squawk show on radar, his response was "Its like the pilot, old and slow, let it bloody warm up". Lols Love you guys loads.
My grandfather told me that he found a lot of paper from the bombed Philips offices and factories in the fields of the surrounding villages after the raid. I envy my grandfather, he got to see it all, massive bombing raids, the huge armada of planes that dropped paratroopers during Market Garden and Spitfires and P-51's dogfighting above his house.
Hi! Great video! I would like to use some of the combat segments in order to illustrate one of my own videos on the Mosquito. How would I go about getting permission for this in order to avoid copyright trouble? Thanks!

When they were planning the doolittle raid they briefly considered using the b18 Bolo, sort if a bomber version of the c47. Theres an obscure bomber for you.
Douglas A-20 Havoc was used primarily by forgein forces an loved by the Soviets. The havoc was lightly armed with only 30. cal machine guns on it. The A-20 Havoc was the second most produced bomber in America second only to the B-25. Not trying to be a thorn but the hurricane was also armed with x6 308 cal Machine guns,not x4 50 cal.
very nice , but the bombers Bostons , Venturas and Mosquitos didn't have a fighter escort. They were all planes from RAF and RAAf SQdns. lots of planes had damage before arriving at the target from birds. Over Eindhoven they lost 4 planes , my family have adopted the graves from one of the Venturas crew who chrashed into houses only 500 metrers from where we live now.
Was able to get my bombs off but took heavy damage over the target and was able to make an emergency landing and the crew was able to avoid capture and make it home to fight another day. Ricky Bo...........bby
at 43 minutes and 41 seconds, you left a very racist remark against Germans calling them krauts. I am extremely offended that you call us krauts that's not very nicem
Historical battle,maybe fly in a historical formation instead of this willy- nill Lame whatever formation you call it In ever single video I watch. Disappointed.

I read an article stating the U.S.A.F is using this game(with VR goggles)to train A 10 pilots
I got some inside info from Nellis AFB, you won't believe what's going on behind the scenes there with this sim.

- "I've got an engine on fire"
- "it's why god saw fit to give you two Ricky"
:D

I am impressed you made it back!
The massive man hugs at the end of these IL 2 missions is my favourite part
same
We get to many angry letters though XD

Wow!

I'm glad to see it's not just me who can't land the Spit without ground looping.
Can you lock your tail wheel before landing?

Now here is a question about VR replays
Every time i try to record VR replay, it always had a lot of head shaking
how did u get rid of it?
Maybe just try not to shake my head during VR gameplay?
Opening sequence. Take the high octane fuel Cap....good....no not the Merlin 70...OK good back on the octane...No, not the Merlin 70...Ah screw it
lol

Fantastic Mission!
Should have used Mosquitoes, you would have been and gone before they knew you was there
Good fun

they will be needed in future missions RB

So now ''Tommys'' is out of order I presume. Weirdo.
I honestly can’t tell if this is serious or not...
oh hey Karen, nice to meet you
Such a sour kraut
With an attitude like that it's no wonder you lost the war... twice.
Historical battle,maybe fly in a historical formation instead of this willy- nill Lame whatever formation you call it In ever single video I watch.
Disappointed.
😂
