I would like to hear more about the navigators role, what they can do etc...

 

If no one takes the navigator role do we have an AI navigator filling this role?

Another weekend news and no mention of my Mossie...

 

I understand ED are working hard on the WWII damage model, but I start to get worried :shocking:

Not particularly, first news we got was in October 2018 then just a few pictures between then and it's release in July 2019.

 

We saw our first pictures of the Mossie around the same time we saw the Anton.

I have different speed (cruise, fast cruise, landing etc...) and engine boost/rmp for each.

I think the version the book is a mossie with merlin 21 engines running on 100 octane fuel.

 

It's an early version. The mossie mk VI had merlin 22, 23 or 25.

but as far as I know the basic game mechanics that allow two players to sit in the same plane do not exist (not available in the F-14 right?

 

Not sure if I'm reading this right, but you absolutely can have two players in the same F-14, Pilot + RIO, so the precedent is there.

 

I would love to have the Mossie be multicrew, even if it's just the navigator role. Would make for some great night time action which is where the Mossie shined quite a bit (pathfinder stuff for marking targets, etc.)

Yup, finally some news on the Mosquito in the newsletter.

 

Cockpit looks great, I wonder how far along the FM is. That's going to be a big task, like ED said it's the first twin engine prop plane they have done. Can't wait to experience it in VR, it's my most awaited module since the Spitfire IX.

 

My late father worked on Mosquito's as an engine fitter during WW2, so there's a bit of a connection there with me too! Got some great old photo's of them taxying out to go on a raid he took during the war.

 

Ok, here's my guess for a release timeline. A few day's before Christmas if we are REALLY lucky, but if I had to put money on it....sometime Q1 2021.....

Has anyone shown Bozon the latest Pictures should keep him going until release.

Just returned after changing my underwear...

This is so awesome - love the screenshots, I’ll go over the pixel by pixel later tonight...:thumbup:

 

I was starting to worry that the mossie will be pushed back due to all the other development that ED are doing.

 

THANK YOU ED! KEEP IT COMING ON SCHEDULE AND TAKE MY MONEY!
