2) not sure what you mean, if your game "hangs" when you exit from flying (click on "Officers mess" to go back to the OFF Manager... it is a well known issue. The temporary solution for some is published in the FAQ and on our forum.

However quickly.. run the original CFS3 game once and then quit. Now you can fly many times in OFF fine until the next session.

3) it is work-in-progress

As is the DFW

These were tricky aircraft to fly, with precession, torque, nose lift, etc. going on (often at the same time) so that it took a considerable amount of practice to get and keep an aircraft, such as the Camel, flying straight. This of course makes them harder to fire guns at an enemy, which is why the SE5A was highly regarded as a stable "guns platform" as it did not have the nasty torquing habits of the Camel. To use the Cntrl-A key would be a cheat. Acknowledge their quirks, accept them and overcome them.

My problem is in when exiting the program my pilot is usually dead. But that isn't an issue with the software, more of a user problem.

Great update guys, really do enjoy it when I get time to fly.
