Another official trailer has been released. I must admit even with my reservations about the historical realism they've achieved it does look bloomin good!

Looks like a "must upgrade my pc" game. I'm all in!

Probably anti piracy software Clive.

I download all my pc games from steam now.
I don't believe in piracy and yes steam helps that.
Well I've preordered a copy. This looks like great eye candy to me. The only down side I see so far is no people on the ground. I would have liked to have seen some people in the railway station and the AA gun. Even if they were only fixed simple ones.
I hope we will see an upgrade one day that will allow us to fly the Wellington, Condor and Do17z. However it is great to see they have the right Condor in the sim. I'm very pleased to see the Blenhiem mk4. It will be good to do a little hitting back from time to time. The Tigermoth is great to see as well. I just wish they hadn't wasted their time on the modern aircraft. Have you seen those odd ones they did in CFS3 much. They would have been better using that time on the Do17z cockpit.
Has anyone read about a mission builder? I haven't seen a word on it.
Anyway all in all I'm very pleased with what we are getting from a visual point of view. I won't comment of the flight issues. That's for others.
Visually, looks great. Hope they fly as nicely as they look.
Greg, there will be a mission builder from day 1 and it was said it will be moddable. Unfortunately, there have been no other info about those features in the last few months. I'm holding out on the purchase for now.
Some enterprising soul has put the UK manual up:

The complex engine management looks very interesting, as do the working bombsights.
It also mentions various crew positions having some functionality.
It also mentions 'later modules' planned for features such as adding rank insignia on uniforms, so it looks to be ongoing which bodes well for the future of it.
This could turn out to be a very good combat flight simulator after all!

There's a few vids on Youtube from the Russian release. This one shows the scenery pretty well.
Not sure of the colours used, it doesn't look much like the UK. The grass and flowers look good though. I'm itching to see decent pics of the airfields!
