[Screenshots] Fighting Woodpeckers - Flight with 8 planes

Hi all!

Just after our performing at VFAT we got 3 more pilots and had a flight in big formation with 8 x P-51D.

The results are below! :wink:

All 26 screenshots you can watch here or download them in one file in the archive!

Great screenshots! The formations look to have very nice symmetry - nicely done. I'd hate to be the outer wing, tough flying for sure but it looks like they fly their paint as good as the inner wings.

Thanks Ray! That was our first flight by 8 and we got pretty nice result because we trained flying in all these positions before. Of course there are many other figures and formations that we are able to do, just need to join by so much ppl again ;)
Yes, flying on the outer wing position needs other and special trainings, and in IL-2 it's more difficult, or maybe just even more uncomfortable to stay outer than in Lock On :)
