What will be the first thing you do in the spitfire?

I will probably look at the manual... then at the aircraft... back at the manual, start a little talk to myself Pulp Fiction-like (ref. Vince back from the dance contest), "You will not fly her directly, you will just look at her, say goodbye, head back home, have a little reading, and only then...". Then I'll probably just get impatient and start her right away :doh:

More than likely overheat it and crash and burn.............

Hoss

Quick start mission in the air "Free Flight", and see how her and I get along.

Then basking in the glory of knowing that Yo-Yo has capacities freed up to bring us the MiG-29 and Su-33 PFMs shortly after the Spitfire's release! :)

First thing I will do? Hmm, I guess turning on the battery power, but not sure. I'm waiting for the manual :)

Grab a cup of tea and read the manual, obvs.

P-47 and the Normandy map before any of those, is what he should be doing :)

It what seems more appropriate. :smartass:

is a good job i know how to start and taxi it because it means i can do some take offs and landings then do some mock dogfights to get used to the gun sights and the go do combat :)

I'll check whether it's a Mk IX or a Mk XIV :P

Who knows... :smilewink:

Look for the keys to start the freakin thing but only after i put on my seat belt and realize i left my spitfire keys at home..

I think you nailed it there, That's what'll probably happen to me.But this time I intend to put in about full of rudder and accelerate slowly, not try the scramble take off until later ....much later

I'll check whether it's a Mk IX or a Mk XIV :P

Who knows... :smilewink:

Double post

I think i try to start a 100 Times and

When im in the air i will make a party

probably crash it on takeoff, like I did with the 109, Dora, and P-51... :-)

Fly super slow until my stick is way back and I am janking left 'n' right to keep her airborne :)

Then mid speed, cut throttle - full rudder - full aileron - full elevator --- snap that bird :joystick:

If I am still alive then I should prolly land and call it a maiden flight ;)

Just sit in the cockpit and immerse myself in the ambiance.

I will probably try to start it up without looking at any tutorials, probably fail, then test out Yo Yo's FM in a fight against the 109!

 

I'm really excited . . . . :pilotfly:

check out her perfect figure :D

 

 

 

Only one problem with that plan buddy................finding someone to fly the Bf109!! most of us will be in the Spitfire :joystick:

I'm willing to fly the 109 or the 190 but only if we trade off every other engagement. :pilotfly:

Anybody else crossing there fingers for some good news today?

As I have been doing for the last month! :doh:

:dunno: I presume they want to bring 2.5 before Spitfire into DCS. We have seen a lot of Spitfire over Normandy, so that might also be the reason. Maybe they want them both out at the same time?:cry:

I hope not. It should be released when it's done, independently from other projects if possible.

WW2 needed some fresh content yesterday.

Not holding my breath on this one anymore, these forums were a little premature ;)

It's been moved from "mid-2016" to "late 2016" so there might still be a long way.

Any way, Ill be glad to see the Spit 9 come alive.
