Lancaster Escort

Postby Ecko » Fri Dec 09, 2005 6:11 pm

Hi guys!


Here's some shots from a multiplayer session with Grysnak, Clipper, Cspyro and myself.

The first shots are from a setup escort, the others are pure dogfighting! 8) And the last shot is from an old MP with clip. :)

Walk & Follow is really good for these situations.

Up and close. :)

Bye Grysnak! :D Damn these shots are hard to get.. :o

Me and Clip on a nice afternoon flight around canada. Only one shot, since the rest of the time was used chatting, and going around- VERY VERY VERY hard approach + no lights on the seafire, or the runway.

Spits aren't my forte, so this is probably a dumb question, but don't some have square tips on the wings and some pointed? Whats the dif as far as model and which was first?

Awesome shots, btw.

Where's the pics of me nose diving into the gound....again and again... ;) Learned that trimming at 400kts. is an exercise in futility. Thanks for the tip Ecko!

Thats correct- some have clipped wings like the ones in my shots. I think it was the later model that had clipped wings.

Actually the only way to pull out of a 400 knots dive, is to tip the stick forward. AH have modelled that effect pretty nicely, at least on the Seafire, I don't know about the BF109.

Thanks for the comments guys! ;)

Well, I know that pulling the stick back doesn't work at those speeds!

1280x1024- But it's really all about compression. I use Photoshop Elements.

Would Photoshop CS help with compression? I'm presuming you've seen my shots Ecko, and, well, they aren't the best, compressionwise.  :-[  ;D

I havent tried CS myself, but I think it's better than Elements.
