for you guys waiting for it, the patch is on now.
No matter what you do, the bullet with your name on it will get you. So, too, can the ones addressed "To Whom It May Concern".

Oh boy!
That thing is HEAVY. I find it very hard to fly the new bomber when fully loaded with bombs and fuel. Once the bombs are gone, it's quite easyer. Also, that beast is droping speed quite fast during the landing approaches.

Sweet, I know what I am doing this weekend. Hurry up and someone made a dogfight map with bombers and respawnable AI  p.s. someone should also make a german skin for the plan so both sides can use it till the gotha comes out.

I am only working Monday through Thursday, so guess what I am doing today? 
Instead of complaining about SPAD 7s, Central pilots should capture and fly them too. I suggest putting an apple in the middle of your Aerodrome field and just wait. Eventually a SPAD 7 will come by to get the apple, cause SPADS can't resist apples. This is how the Entente gets a hold of SPAD 7s, m-kay?

Going to let it download while I go fly a real plane, then when I get back I can fly a virtual one!

I have work all day, and tomorrow the weather will keep me down. Haven't flown since last Wednesday. I'm getting itchy because I never go faster then 130 kts. All I do is fly a cheap 150 and 172. 182RG should be a real treat.

Anyone spent some time flying now after 1.016 and able to report on frame rate affect? Will not download patch until I hear some word about how the frame rates are affected. Having a minimum spec PC causes some concern. Hoping for a quick response. BadBud www.simflite.com

Frame rates are only affected of u bump the new effects up. Basically it breaks down like this:
Old shadows high = new shadows medium
Old reflections high = new reflections medium
Shaders max adds micro bumping
Turn lights to= 0 for no frame hit on lights...

Also, that beast is droping speed quite fast during the landing approaches. Remember that a full fuel load gives the plane an 8-hour endurance. 50 percent fuel is plenty enough for the missions we will be flying with this plane.

Question: I would assume it would be a good idea to back up the ACCData and Profiles files, correct? If those files get cleared, I could just copy and paste my originals, correct?
