Compatibility mode? I didn’t know about that one. Did a search for it in Windows Help, found it, tried it, BINGO! Thanks, Joe!

Tried your idea first, Moe, but had similar results.

Okay,
I spent 25 minutes flying & only successfully released the bombs one time....What am I doing wrong..:ques: :isadizzy:
 
So many sexy planes and just not enough money. I just love WW2 aircraft, just have to wait a while. I sure wish I were made of money.
 
HI - could someone do a screen to show how well the canopy glazing texture looks. It looks dull or non existant next to the zero in the screens above - is there any?
 
Gajit, pretty sure the canopy is open (slid back) in all the screenies above, would be almost impossible to see it.

How did you do that? It was late and i haven't read the manual :redf:
I was only able to fire the rockets and to drop the tank.

Yes,
I wish there was "sim manual" other than the POH. :kilroy:

All that I can remember is that I was in a dive, and after hitting many switches, I hit the spoiler button and it worked.....

HOWEVER, I couldn't (and still can't) re-create it....:isadizzy:

(PS: You can also fire the guns too..)
 
To drop the bombs you must first be off the ground. (duh!)... then, once you are in the air, you press "a" to switch to the arming panel (lower right hand side), and then, you must fuze and arm the bombs. (same with the rockets). Once that's done, you may press "a" again until you are in the correct view. You will note a red button on the lower right of the gunsight. that is the rocket launch button. To do the actual drop, you use the spoiler key. That should do it.

to fire the guns, you must first take the safeties off. Those are located just below the main instrument panel (the red and white doodads). Turn them both to the right for unsafe. Note that the guns are fired using the brake key (trigger), so it would be a good idea to be off the ground when you use them.
Then, using the same method as the bombs and rockets, switch to the arming panel and arm the guns.

Press the trigger... whoot whoot!
