There is a brand new HBO documentary film about virtual flying. More than one hour about American, Polish German and  Russian pilots, their families, their passion, also a bit of hate between nations and some virtual squadrons, and about Il2 of course (but not mentioned) Wink   The movie is in 4 languages, hopefully soon with English subtitles... It has already been shown in HBO in Poland, and (maybe) it will be distributed worldwide later...

Thank you for finding this and uploading link.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that I featured continually throughout this documentary! Just look for the Luftwaffe pilot getting shot down in each sim footage and that's me!  Tongue

There is no English translations now, you have to wait till your premiere in HBO. Or you can try and find someone who knows Russian, German and Polish and translate by your own this...

Very nice documentary. Has half a dozen of virtual pilots whom I played with there in olds virtual wars (CAD, CW, BW) - JG27 Lohan, the guys from polish 300 squad and others.

The most interesting was seeing how the real world are guys who were as talented as controversial as the 300_Lukas and 300_Pinker (the latter has always been a hobby shooting humans paratroopers).

Stop talking about this already! I can't seem to get my hands on it in any way, but I really, really, really want to watch it Smiley

Cool documentary, but damn does it feel weird to see oneself on the TV screen!  Shocked

And there sure are some freaks out there with their IL2 gears. (Whatever were those multiple strange boxes, connected with wires, attached all over the upper body from one of the polish (?) guys???)
