Heading into the Mach loop, North Wales....

Turning hard...

Out the other side..

Having worked on the original Tornado model created by ArmourDave way back in 2007 and trying to keep it up to date over the years I think I'm in a pretty good position to pass comment on this latest addition to the Strike Fighters stable.

What guuruu has achieved here can only be described as OUTSTANDING work ! 

He and his team have put together the most complete and accurate representation of the mighty Tonka I  have ever seen in any sim.

The old Tornado models have served us well over the years, they were in their time as good as it gets but time has moved on and now we have a worthy replacement, if you don't  already have these excellent new "guuruu" Tonka models you are definately missing out.

As the "Mighty Fin" as we know it bowed out of RAF service just last week it's great to know I just have to fire up my pc and go fly a mission in one to be able to see one in the ( virtual )air again.

I say again, a huge thanks to guuruu and his team.

Is the Mach loop on the Photo Real British Isles terrain? Can you point it out on the planning map please?

Got a student in a Hawk at RAF Valley raring for a run through.....

@allen, the loop and a series of deep valleys can be accessed by flying across the straight to the mainland, follow the road into the first valley then go exploring to find the others...:wink:

Thanks mate.

Let's see if these directions are right... 

large.img00026.JPG.503346835a2c9536d030b

Across the strait and follow the road....

large.img00128.JPG.cbb433ec45a67603d3312

large.img00133.JPG.783c8e5033be3f564cba1

Hmmm, seem to have run out of road... 

large.img00135.JPG.3e62d4b94c2ccdf7e396b

Maybe I'll follow the river instead...

Found the target. For me, and I'm sure for some of you of a certain age, the Matra rocket attack is a classic Hawk image..

Well since some of us are into RAF action, let's play "Red Storm Rising: The GR.1 Tornado Strikes Back, 1990 Edition"....

Of course, some Fitters have to come play and try to get at the friendly advancing Leopard tanks... and the results aren't so good.  For the Fitters, that is.

The Fitters still stuck around, probably thinking I wouldn't yank out my Aden cannon.  But I certainly did...
