in IL-2: 1946 Pretty much covers the entire Air War of WW2 with a realistic flight model. Now if they'd only have fully pilotable Heavy Bombers...

If you poke around you can find vids like these:

I have that game. I have never successfully landed on a carrier. I usually have to ditch it ot splatter myself all over the flight deck. Take off is easier if you lock your tail wheel.

Especially when you get in with a good group of guys... 7 of us were playing a mission resembling the movie 633 Squadron:

A fictional movie about a Mosquito squadron attacking this V-1 factory in a Norwegian mountainside. The river run inspired Lucas and his Trench Run in star wars.



How bout them special effects :roll:
