A new trailer for IL 2 BOS is out by IIN8II. He makes fantastic videos. This one is EPIC! Nicely done. Dont forget to change resolution to 1080p in you-tube www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEHSEaHwPTM

It's got a long way to go before we can use it for our purposes, such as a Ghost Skies type campaign. Some day maybe. Thanks for the heads up.

I bought this during beta and I'm still really let down by it. I hope something is done about it because I feel a little cheated out of $60. The aircraft feel like kites to me, much the way the biplanes did in ROF, but at least I could understand it in that game, after all... they were made of wood and fabric for the most part. Heiden and I have been flying the 109 K-4 on DCS lately. The price tag is a bit hefty unless you can score it on sale, and I definitely don't recommend it unless you're an absolute glutton for punishment, as takeoff and landing alone are horribly difficult until you really know what to expect and get it all down. That said, there's definitely some potential fun in there for when we're not tearing it up in CloD.

I'll keep my fingers crossed! Spring seems a long way off to me right now.

So how does it fly? Is that tendency to highspeed stall markedly decreased? More importantly, is this sim worth the $60 some-odd bucks to get the A3?

Groove, Meyer and Mindle flying FW190A3 yesterday in Bos after FM adjustments. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ie1MyuFqzQNo lone wolfing, but a wolf pack. Team work, co-ordination of attacks, clearing each other. Well flown. Lots of positive input on the 190 now since adjustments made in 2.007.

I'd have to say I like it! Over all it seems a touch better than it was before the incorrect FM was introduced. The sudden stall is still there, but it seems like the resulting spin is easier to recover from. I don't understand why anyone would want to fly a 109 now, but it would be a real drag if everyone flew 190s. Maybe when we (as in Hackl and I) fly online it won't seem as nice. Time will tell.
Watched some of the video and I can't believe how smooth Groove was flying.

Got controls set up and did some test flying. I would say it is back also. Seems more responsive all the way across. Energy retention is really good now. Dive speed and acceleration is insane! The plane actually feels a bit lighter and more nimble than it was. Climb rate is a lot better than before. The bouncing during taxi nearly eliminated. Take off it seems to leap into the air much quicker; It seemed use the entire runway before. Have not tried a stall or spin recovery yet. It does not like ham-fisted flying but then it never has in any sim. That goes for most planes except the Spit anyway. Did I mention FIRE-POWER!!

Yea, firepower is something else. But aside from all that it is so beautiful. The 190 looked good in '46' also, but I think it's even better in BOS. With the JG51 skin it is really striking, too bad it's a 1st Staffel paint job (the mighty 3rd would of really been sweet).

Wonder how it flies? Did you purchase BOK Hackl? If so, I would be interested to know your thoughts on the A5.
