Aircraft featured is 'Sailor' Malan's ZP-A of 74 Squadron, with which I will be flying my next RAF campaign in WotR, which will get the AAR treatment for anyone interested.

Thanks for the pics 33Lima great.
One thing they seem slightly blurred is that low quality setting on jpg or something?

Thanks catch.

They're all taken with the K key and then the output .bmps saved via MS Paint as .jpegs as the former can't be uploaded here - I see no visible quality loss from the original .bmps, despite the much smaller filesize. I'm just using 4xAA (Nvidia driver over-riding the app setting) with 1600x900. Haven't tried pushing the AA any higher as the FPS is generally high and it looks more than good enough to me, especially compared to CloD with its horrible jagged aerial wires at normal viewing distance and whole aircraft jagged at medium or long range.

Jpeg always loses quality somewhere it's a lossy algorithm. I save with 99% quality on jpegs which helps some. Not sure what settings Paint saves with but it's likely somewhere around 80% quality on jpeg.
Maybe the resolution is the problem, as with jpegs they usually look the same until you zoom in a bit. I'm viewing on a 3440x1400 monitor, so they will be zoomed in a fair bit if the original res is lower.

Just noticed this game the other day. I have been a long time fan of the Battle of Britain, and this game looks wonderful. May give it a go.
