    Nice... and BTW about your sig I think it's really funny, although I'm kinda inclined to believe that he will surely hit something eventually but that will probably be the nearest tree .

    If I recall correctly, there was once a monkey or chimp that was trained to fly IL-2. Gunnery wasn't exactly his forte, so he learned to get kills be ramming other planes, friendly or otherwise. His caretakers gave him the Hyperlobby name of "Rammer" and was greatly disliked by a lot of people who didn't know who he really was and just assumed him to be troll.

    One of that Chimp's aliases was WhistlinggDeath.

    Actually this was not added in 4.10 but was a feature added in the patch that added the D.XXI to begin with. It has something to do with skins that you select if I remember correctly. If you use certain skins, this will happen randomly. I have had several missions that flew with no pants or spats or whatever you want to call them. This was over a year ago! Maybe it was added in 4.09? When was the D.XXI added? But no, it's not new and not anything to do with 4.10. But glad you discovered it, better extremely late than never?

    Perhaps I should've explained more than to say "it NOW works."

    When 4.09 came out, i tried this feature & it didn't work. I posted here for help & got this reply:

    I tried it with the code and all but no luck.

    It's put under the tag like this to make it work?

I just garnered by the first post you wrote in this thread that you thought it was just added in 4.10, not that it works for the first time correctly in 4.10 patch. But I did fly a few missions with bare wheels a long time ago, that's all I know.
