In case anyone is interested, phoenix and I were discussing problems after BoS updates, one of which related to the compiled mission files with a filetype of .msnbin. For those that don't know, when you are making a mission in the mission editor your actual mission data is held in a text file with a filetype .mission but it compiles to a .msnbin file when you save it and that is what the game actually loads. Some updates made changes that some older .msnbin files can't run in and the simple answer is to delete the .msnbin file, reopen the mission in the mission editor and re-save it. All this and more is explained in this post (and I'm sure, other places too) if you are interested:

I have to admit I am torn now.  I might be able to get enough money together to but Bodenplatte but I like the look of Flying Circus more.   If I buy FC instead of Bodenplatte then I will probably find myself left behind quite often when the squad wants to fly WW2 and if that is happening I would probably end up not flying BoX and just flying FC which in turn would possibly lead to joining another squad.  On the other hand, I have not flown BoX for about 5 weeks now and don't miss it so maybe I would be wasting my money buying either :-)     I will probably have a better idea when Summer ends.

I loved the open cockpit, wood and fabric gliders the ATC had when I was a youngster. Shit performance (glide ratio) compared to modern, streamlined, fibreglass gliders with sleek enclosed cockpits, but much more fun. Whilst I expect most players will still prefer the higher performance WW2 ac, there’s a good chance VR could make WW1 a much more ‘real’ experience.  The ‘feel’ just isn’t there on a monitor. Being able to feel you’re really in a Camel cockpit might be more fun than feeling you’re in an enclosed Hurricane cockpit. I’ll be giving it a go - and the Tigers too - although the beach has fully occupied this weekend ☀️😎🏊🏼‍♂️⛺️🏖
