On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

Id love to see a series where he grabs a handful of friends and run a five on five with a full on furball. Doesn’t really matter if it’s WW1, WW2, Korea, or Vietnam.

Yeah this was fun

Agree. Friends and a giant aerial furball.

The screaming sound of the German bailing out was something else! 😂

[@gibsoncook3609]

That’s funny to you

[@gizmomckopp1131]

2:50 they're Me 410 - the successors of the Bf 110. They've got two remote controlled 13mm rear guns instead of the single 7.98mm gun in a 110. You can recognise them by the shape. A 110 is rather boxy, whereas a 410 is much more round and sleek and shares its engines and outer wings with Bf 109 G models.

[@poweedlo]

Those reflections on the canopy at 5:54 OMG that's insane level of details

[@kylestickley8096]

Thank you for giving some more love to IL2. I've been loving the Normandy map!

My father was a WW2 fighter pilot. Although he flew the F4U Corsair in the Pacific, these great videos give me a taste of what he must have experienced in aerial combat. Thanks guys!

I hope ur dad lived an amazing life he was def owed it after serving in ww2

[@mrjefferson1812]

@@norcalsrt1214. Thank you for the kind words! He did live an amazing life. He went on the do great things as a fighter pilot in Korea & Vietnam. But by far, his fondest memories were flying the Corsair in the pacific. It’s the aircraft he loved to talk about the most. Hopefully someday Growling Sidewinder will feature the Chance Vought F4U in one of their videos. Cheers.

apparently P-51D was available in numbers for the Normandy invasion also (bubble canopy, Merlin engine) but plenty of B and C models would have been there too

[@milanprica7513]

B/C also Merlin

[@whylie74]

That looked like a Me410 they've got two MG131 13mm heavy machine guns in a remote barbet, one each side, sweeping high and low rear quarter, best attack is beam to front quarter either side and direct front high, direct front low can get you a face full of 20mm or bigger depending on subvarient

[@remingtonwingmaster6929]

good eye..... they were either Me 210's or Me 410's

[@patm8622]

Definitely a 410.

[@acftmxman]

I totally loved the added sound effects. Especially the guys jumping out. That little high pitched scream had me roaring.

[@aveenvp]

Really stoked to see you do more pre-1960 stuff. WW1, WW2, Korea, etc, would love to see more of all of it

[@onenaner]

WW2 aircraft never cease to amaze me.

[@Chio_OB]

IL-2 is simply still the best WW2 combat flight simulator, DCS is great but nothing does WW2 like IL-2. Flight model, damage model and engine management are just so good! I played IL=2 when it first came out 300 years ago (to play it on the Hyperlobby (remember that) or online needed installing it and it's many, many, many, many, many patches in a very specific order (not in "the correct" order) and it still rocks now, no need to apply 10 patches in a mixed up order!

[@Coffey_DCS]

DCS uses actual wind tunnel data. Il-2 engine management is based on a timer. Il-2 is nowhere close to the realism of DCS.

My favorite content has been the WW2 and WW1 content. It's awesome your jumping back into it again!

[@maeror1022]

WW2 era dogfights are always so much fun to watch.

[@fatwizard1234]

I like the added thing of the pilots screaming as the eject out of the plane LOL

[@castlebravo1599]

so the mirage has had some pretty significant flight model changes making it keep its energy better as well as allowing it to have a turn rate to speak of. i was wondering if you could fly out the new mirage and see how it now holds up against a few bandits

[@there_can_only_be_one__unicorn]

[@mana_btw]

You always make me smile! Keep making vids! 🤙🏼

[@CaptainLawrenceNZ]

Haha 😂 that was a decent landing in the P51. As a professional flight instructor, aerobatic Pilot and tail dragger pilot I would LOVE to collaborate and give you all the information we use for training pilots onto tail draggers and high performance aerobatic aircraft 🫠

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

I would love some tips about how to land them for starters

[@CaptainLawrenceNZ]

@@GrowlingSidewinder I’m down I got so much information I’ve created for students and of course actually flying them…. I’d love to help if I can, you’re a pretty good pilot from watching your dogfights 🤌 I messaged you on IG a while back otherwise I can email you?

[@JackManiacky]

One of the complaints from real pilots I've heard of IL-2 is the planes are really floaty slow with flaps down. It's hard to keep certain planes from bouncing in the sim.

[@CaptainLawrenceNZ]

@@JackManiacky it would be interesting to apply different tail wheel landing techniques and see which ones work better 🧐

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

email would be better I don't really check the messages on IG I get so many I'm sure yours is lost in the sea of DMs at this point.

[@kevinloper6551]

Awesome, good to see you back doing some WW2 videos.

[@wackswax8423]

Whether it’s warbirds or modern planes. My fav videos of yours are the ones where you just play dcs and do missions or just go out on sortie hunting! I’d love to see something Wild Weasley if that’s even possible. The Korea vid from last week was so sick. I don’t even play dcs, but these videos are really great man. Seems like you’re on the tip of the spear as far as air milsims go. Don’t get me wrong, the 1v1 dog fight videos are great too, but there’s another level of realism in the other style vids. Awesome stuff dude 🫡👍🏻👍🏻

[@jonesy279]

[@debbiestimac5175]

Love the audio effects! Did you hear that first guy scream as he hit the silk? "AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Hilarious! Edit : That bounce on landing, at least it was straight down the airstrip and you did not change your attitude, let the bounce happens keep dancing on those rudder pedals to keep from ground looping. I'd say it was great recovery and awesome you admitted you need to work on landings more. Tail draggers are no joke and landing them is a perishable skillset.

Great video. The new damage model is awesome. The penetration power of the .50 cal is very impressive now.

[@plushie946]

so glad they fixed .50s, the reason I stopped playing IL-2 GB for like a year was because of how frustrating they were. I was so excited for the lend lease planes being available for Russia only to find out they were all basically useless. Might as well have been shooting .303 with how long you had to sit behind enemies. Especially larger planes. They look much better now. Especially excited for the dynamic damage modelling. It looks stunning on the tanks, I bet the planes will look just as good.
