Re: FAO: Peter Larry - Paddy Hemingway - Restore to flying condition P3966

Officially Credited RAF Squadrons 10 Jul - 31 Oct 1940

Have created this (along with all the names of those lost during the BoB - which plays for 1hr 30mins) for Septembers BoB Mess Dinner. Which are becoming mainstream again. This is more of a play in the background kind of thing. The video shows all the RAF/PAF/Cz/Coastal Command/RN FAA and other Squa...

Re: BoS VR

Jonesy. I'm toying with a similar idea. I want to use my old Hurricane (SpitSim) controller for IL2 Battles & Cliffs. But don't want my chair moving. So I have removed the casters and swapped them for the static "Office Caster Stops! (Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B088D71YTX/ref=ppx_yo...

Re: BoS VR

I also have the HP Reverb G2 on pre-order. As soon as Asobo release the VR support for MSFS 2020, we will know the G2 is ready for release! Have retired my home built Hurricane pit. At least with VR the cockpit is available as soon as you put the headset on! I bit the bullet and went as far as IL2 B...

UK Informational Posters 1939-1945

Cobbled this together this afternoon to play in and out of my CoD Stream. None of them are in any paricular order!

Patiently waiting for 32 to reform, to save Britain in the hour of its deadliest danger.

More importantly, all stay safe.
