“…As I saw this helpless, straggling bomber spiral down towards earth, its fate doomed, I was struck by the horror I was watching. I could not stop thinking about those real men who would have been trapped inside, never to see their loved ones again…”
Even in a flight sim, the resemblance to reality can make me quite emotional: the joy to successfully avenge the destruction the bomber brought upon innocent people, mixed with the agonizing thought of those ordinary men no different to me, being trapped alive in a burning cage, plunging down towards their inevitable death.
In war you do not have to think of the enemy as a human being but as an entity.:rolleyes:
And the war is horrible and we are lucky to live and grow in a world that for 70 years has been living in “peace”.
We hope to grow old even in the same world! :o
Thanks guys…it was a very eerie experience. Too real for a game even.
Anyway, if nothing goes wrong, my biggest machinima production to date will be released tonight. It is the next chapter about the unknown air war over the Balkans in 1944. Featuring human pilots in a dangerous attack on a German convoy in the Adriatic Sea.
