Anthony W. Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) I think I'm pretty darn good at formation flying, so I decided to do some wing walkin', Junkers style! What do y'all think? Edited February 8, 2009 by Anthony W. Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 8, 2009 Author Posted February 8, 2009 On that last photo I was less than 3 inches from hitting his wire thingy, literally. I held that for 30 seconds and never hit it. Finally I got sick of holding that steady and broke away, still never hitting it. Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 9, 2009 Author Posted February 9, 2009 Once again, what do ya'll think? Quote
Viggen Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Is that even from a Third Wire game? It looks more like Il-2 ...although I know that the A-Team made the Junkers. Quote
+Stary Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Is that even from a Third Wire game? It looks more like Il-2 ...although I know that the A-Team made the Junkers. Loks like The Range terrain for Thirdwire... Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 9, 2009 Author Posted February 9, 2009 Loks like The Range terrain for Thirdwire... Right you are, the range is the only place I can practice close formation without a Mig killing us bolth. BTW, I love the Junkers 52 . Such a stable and well behaved aircraft. Quote
Viggen Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Ah, no wonder I thought it was Il-2, I have less than an hour of time on The Range, GermanyCE is my range. Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) F-104G Starfighters, threadin' the needle. BTW, all the links I found for these were found on one of Streakeagles webpages, I can't thank you enough for the thinks. Lol, I think I just hijacked my own thread with this post... I wish I could edit the title to make it say "Aerial Prison Cell: Locked in Formation" Edited February 10, 2009 by Anthony W. Quote
triplethr3at Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 nice formation flying. try to stick next to them while manuevering. Trust me its far more dificult. difficult=fun ...usualy Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 nice formation flying. try to stick next to them while manuevering. Trust me its far more dificult. difficult=fun ...usualy I should try that, but since it's AI, I can't afford any sudden moves. In the Junkers I bet I could do it, but it'd take a lot of practice to do that in a 104. Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 Oh, guys, feel free to post your own close formation screen shots. It's always fun to have a little pow-wow with the guys to check up on each others skills. Quote
+FastCargo Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 How's this for my skills? Done with: Lexx_Luthor's cirrus mod CA_Stary's trees ANW Terrain Wrench's object placement Bloom mod A bit of Photoshop My T-38A model FC Quote
+Typhoid Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 good air to air refueling practice!! Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) Oh wow FastCargo, that's amazing! I could have sworn that was real life! You're not only great at formation, but great at photoshop too! Edited February 10, 2009 by Anthony W. Quote
Anthony W. Posted February 11, 2009 Author Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) More from my computer which I have recently given the title(I parodied it from MASH's "Yankee Doodle Doctor"): "Hangar of the Yankee Doodle Death Machine" This time in what IMO would make a great civilian jet trainer and civilian personal jet(REMOVE EJECTION SEATS OF COURSE!!!) the T-37 Tweet.

Anthony W. Posted February 11, 2009 Author Posted February 11, 2009 "I can see pagoda masts. I see the biggest meatball flag on the biggest battleship I ever saw!"---Ensign William C. Brooks, the first to report the sighting of the Japanese fleet during The Battle off Samar, a skirmish fought during the Battle of the Philippine Sea. Well, I can't see any pagoda masts, and I certainly can't see any meatball, but I can tell by the look on my wing man's gunner's face that I'm going to have a hell of a time explaining this... Quote
