IL-2 Sturmovik's user interface is, as Len "Viking1" Hjalmarson tells us, like their aircraft: powerful, yet simple and easy to use. In this preview of IL-2, Len shows us the user interface options for building Quick Missions as well as the full Mission Builder interface screens. Modders take note, if you like to create aircraft skins, IL-2 Sturmovik has already built in the functionality to swap them in the interface.

Nice work

Chocks away, back soon old chap and hey, stay away from Mrs Bilko or I'll give you a damn good thrashing with my STICK

Enlève les cales! Je reviens tout de suite mon vieux; et surtout, tu restes bien loin de Mme Bilko ou je te filerai une bonne grosse rouste avec mon BÂTON.

Zwolnic bloki, wracam niedlugo stary pryku i hej, zostaw Pania Bilko w spokoju albo dam ci dobry wycisk moim KIJKIEM.

От винта, старина, я вернусь скоро, а ты держись подальше от миссис Билко, а не то я проучу тебя моей ПАЛКОЙ!

¡Calzos fuera! Regreso enseguida tío, así que mantente alejado de la señora Bilko, si no quieres que te atice un buena tunda con mi VARA!

Fjern bremseklodserne! Jeg er snart tilbage og husk; hold fingrene fra fru Bilko eller jeg skal give dig en omgang med min STAV!

The depth of this sim, in pre-beta, is astounding. I am moving from an open-mouth
drool to a rabid animal in anticipation! `preciate the inside look Viking1...

This sim continues to look better and better! oh roll on June!!

I must admit i don't like complicated interfaces, 'easy to use' is good for me

Actually I've a question (May have been asked before??) With all that's been said before....Sounds like these birds will take a bit of getting used to..especially the 109's. Is there an option somewhere that will allow you 'freeflight'? Or would you have to build a mini-mission to go sight seeing/testing with ?

Thanks Len,

Actually I didn't find the 109 that hard to get used to. But it is tough to compare the feeling of flight to any other sim. The 109 is a beauty.
