3 pointsDassault Rafale EA-2: The Dassault Rafale EA-2 is an advanced variant of the well known Dassault Rafale, developed for Argentina to replace the Mirage. The Omnirole plane can compplete all types of sorties and has been in service since 2018. It is considered a whole new variant of the Rafale, since all the parts that BAe provided to build it were replaced with russian parts, with some of them being more powerful than its predecessors. It is actually in service with the 6th Fighter and Attack Group, belonging to the 6th Air Brigade. It has participated in the "ECOAS 1", a joint exercise with the US Navy, where the pilots were able to "sink" the USS George Bush, showing an exceptional ability to fly low and engage from long distance.

2 pointsOuch! A pilot goes down. Sorry for your loss Paroni. Saddle back up and join again. I think Carrick and myself were the leaders in dead pilots the last go round. Sgt. Elijah Gallagher June, 1915. 8 RFC The weather had been horrible for a week The Major had been called away and Capt. Goon, my observer, was acting commander in his absence. Capt. Denton would be my observer for the near future. Gallagher was taken aback when Denton had informed him he was “happy to be in the company of a fine pilot.” Denton then proceeded to tell him Capt. Goon assured him that he would “be in good hands.” Gallagher was thankful of the compliment and told Denton that he “Hoped he would live up to the Capt. Goons praise.” Once the weather had cleared Gallagher was assigned to fly with Ltn. Chambers to bomb Phaliempin aerodrome. With the added weight of bombs they would be flying without observers. Gallagher was glad to be back in the sky. It was a beautiful day, made more so by the previous week of bad weather. “Form up close near the target and release your bombs when I do” Chambers had told him. Gallagher knew the territory by now but this would be his first trip over the lines. As they crossed the lines, Archie came up to greet them. He was used to it now, or he thought he was. As they neared the target the sky all around turned into hell. Not only was it accurate but thick. With one hand on the stick and the other ready to release the bombs, he did his best to hold the BE straight. As soon as he saw Chambers release his bombs, Gallagher did the same. The BE immediately lifted higher without the extra weight and the turned for home. Glancing over the side Gallagher could see 2 holes on the field and a burning building. He didn’t know who hit what but it sure felt good to be actually doing some damage to the enemy! Safely back at home they were given a hardy congratulations by Goon when Chambers had reported the damage.

2 pointsSeeing how you, Gepard, Menrva or Wrench struggle with TODs I wish Mue to find some time to finish his editor, that would be amazing. In the meantime, I attack some Banana republics with some unlikely attack planes.

2 pointsThanks for the kind words. Seems like, theres still some interest in those skins. You'll need patience though...as you can see, there's still enough to do. Hangarscreens and stuff like that are also still missing for many skins. Green = Skin ready Dark Green = same Skin for 2 variants needed (for the faulty SF2 upgrade-function in campaigns -> only plane OR skin can be upgraded) Blue = 2 Skins for 1 deployment (gray + camo) Orange = older skin in lower resolution has to be reworked. White = not done yet. Nevertheless, I just found some more skins in a backup: VMA-214 Black Sheep, 6/1965 - 2/1966, Chu Lai AB, A-4C VMA-214 Black Sheep, 3/1966 - 4/1967, Chu Lai AB, A-4C VMA-223 Det. T Bulldogs, 10/1964 - 5/1965, USS Yorktown, A-4C VA-56 Champions, 11/1966 - 7/1967, USS Enterprise, A-4C VA-212 Rampant Raiders, 10/1964 - 5/1965, USS Hancock, A-4E

1 point" We're getting there, we will beat this thing and make enough medication for the World that we can finally put this behind us." I've thought about your writing this for a couple of weeks, and forgive me for being pessimistic: I wish I had your faith. (I'll try & be brief) After so many years of seeing the worst of humanity both close-up & afar, I had very little faith left in humanity to begin with. Since this pandemic began, even that small amount has died. I have not been surprised at the absolute idiocy, selfishness, and unthinking arrogance of so many people refusing to take even the basic precautions against either contracting it themselves, or likewise no attempt to prevent spreading it to other...all in the name of some "freedoms" they claim are being violated, but choose not consider, understand, or even care that they are literally killing themselves and others. Even with all the information available at their fingertips, so many of us would rather read some DS online, or watch some BS on television, rather than listen to what real experts around the world have been have been begging all of us to do since this whole thing started: Wear a mask, practice social distancing, and FFS get vaccinated. It's hard for me to be optimistic about things getting better when there's the constant drumbeat of the cycle of infection & death that's all you ever read about. And how the very medical professionals that are so desperately trying to save as many as they can, are being burned out, as well as being vilified for not saving those who made no effort to save themselves. And I see how horrifyingly easy it has been for people with their own agendas to strip away the most innate parental, personal, and social instincts from people that listen to and follow them. If nothing else, the spectre of racking up horrific medical bills that with ruin them & their families financially, whether they live or die after contracting the disease should be a deterrent. That's simple idiocy. " We're getting there, we will beat this thing and make enough medication for the World that we can finally put this behind us." I hope you're right. I truly do.

1 point23 June 1915 St Pol-sur-mer 0500 The C.O. Christopher Cleaver, standing ramrod straight and impeccably dressed, briefed us. “Morning Gentlemen, hope you slept well after the fun and games last night. I’ll be flying with ‘B’ today” He began. “Our mission is a patrol deep into Hunland, we believe there is a large troop movement near Lager Abchnitt. Headquarters wants information, details and timings as soon as possible. You’ll have noticed that the Huns are not happy with us crossing their lines and are taking every opportunity to shoot at us with Archie and ground fire. Let’s be careful. And look sharp!” With that we strode with purpose across the dewy airfield to our waiting warmed-up aircraft and look to the azure skies. We spent 20 minutes. Climbing over our airfield, the ground crew and airfield paraphernalia becoming smaller and smaller each minute. It was another good flying day, only a few majestic clouds above us and a light breeze to hinder our return. We crossed the lines without incident and Cleaver set a course for Lager Abschnitt. As we were closing on the Archie that surrounds Ghistelles airfield I spotted two small dots flying directly towards us and slightly lower. It was far too early for our chaps to be heading home. Thinking it must be German Aircraft I cursed myself for forgetting my rifle. As we began to close I could clearly see the black crosses and quickly identified two Aviatiks flying within 500 yards of us. I couldn’t bear the thought of those Huns either photographing or bombing our chaps so Jefferson and I turned to engage. Diving between them Jefferson started shooting. The noise was deafening! I hadn’t quite appreciated how close the Lewis was to my head and very quickly my face was covered in black soot and the cockpit filled with the wonderful smell of cordite. Jefferson and I worked as a team, him telling me where to fly and taking wonderful shots at them me manoeuvring for all I’m worth, dodging puffs of menacing Archie and lining up our BE2. After about 5 minutes of shooting and dodging Ghistelles’ flak one of the Aviatiks, either damaged or scared stiff by our plucky antics retreated east. But the other fellow wasn’t for quitting. So again and again we dived and turned and turned and climbed on the other Aviatik. At one point Jefferson swears I looped the BE2 - maybe he's right, I was lost in the dance - though I’m told it’s impossible. (5:30-5:45 in the video below) After about twenty minutes of this Jefferson shouted above the wind in the wires, “We’ve hit the cads engine!” Sure enough, his prop was stubbornly still, his engine seized, he was hors de combat and descending towards Ghistelles. We closed on the hapless Hun, Jefferson taking the odd pot shot just to make sure. “Cut it out Jefferson ” I shouted, “We’re sailors, not bloody butchers!” The Aviakit landed softly. As we flew over the stunned Germans we could see the observer clutching his shoulder and appearing in pain. The pilot grimaced as we flew by cheering and making hideous soot-stained faces at the vanquished foes. It felt like a huge victory. Our first aircraft downed and one forced to retreat with its tail between its legs, unable to fulfil its mission. The squadron crowded around us, cheering as we landed and we told the incredible tales of our cunning and heroics. An incredibly good day!

1 pointI hope people are enjoying the mod so far. For those users who may be uncomfortable with the amount of cloud flashing still in the mod, you may be pleased to know that I am currently working on another small update that will further reduce blinking in mixed light and dark cumulus clouds, reduce cloud density (and blinking) in a couple of heavy clouds, reduce the chances of strobing in heavy fog (seen above in Hellshade's video), and fixes one or two other minor errors. A likely future update will allow users to choose a "light" version of the mod which will automatically remove some of the heavier cloud and fog types that tend to be more prone to cloud flashing, blinking, and popping, with only a slight loss in cloud variety and appearance. Jara and I are also looking into possibly using the Mission Editor to automatically "cull" extra clouds from heavy or rainy weather conditions which can also contribute to increased amounts of cloud flashing.

1 pointSandbagger will be posting the re-release of all three Jerbear skin Mods shortly. There are a number of changes to skin in the first 3 packs, contained in User Skins by Jerbear, which now contains 628 skins. These do not replace any WOFF Skin Pack skins More Skins by Jerbear now has Pack 4 and Pack 5 totaling 354 skins. These do not replace WOFF Skin Pack skins The Alternative Skin Mod has a number of new additions and some redesigned skins. It now contains 166 skins. A few of these are personal skins but the vast majority are replacements. These were done because new information has become available since the WOFF Skin Pack was first done in 2013 or earlier. The reasons and sources for each individual Alternate and user skin can be found in their respective ReadMe word files. The changes made in the earlier Mods were due to my finally figuring out how to make a diagonal, Bavarian Rauten fuselage band work so I changed most of those. Some of these are shown in the screenshots. Enjoy Jerbear I was going to add a bunch more screenshots but this forum doesn't want to allow me to upload anything more. So, you'll have to look at the SimHQ post. This forum has it's points but uploading an image any larger than a postage stamp seems to be a problem.
