Yes I tried Options and still the same thing. Aircraft flies stright and true. I have to be doing something worng. I must have missed something.

I am having a major problem getting the flight mode set. The aircraft is flying in arcade mode. In other flight sims I have you have to keep you hand on the stick making slight corrections all the time. What I have noticed in SF 2 is the aircraft is flying straight and true all the time. It could fly like this for ever it seems. In Il-2 the flight sim requires flight corrections all the time. I have hunted through the manual and can’t find the correction I’m looking for. Can this be done or did I buy the wrong flight sim? Thank you for any help. waddy

Brand new to SF2 and I'm lost before I even start. I would like to learn how to set my X-52 Pro Joystick and peddles for this sim. I went thought the manual (not every word) and saw a very small section about customizing but it didn't tell how to do it. Could some please help me?

I just bought SF 2 and I am in the learning crave of it. The one thing I have noticed iis it flight mode. It seems to fly straight and true unless I move the joystick. In other flight sims it feels a bit more real as by this I mean the aircraft drifts a bit and you have to stay on top of the joystick. Is this possible with SF 2. I once had SF a long time ago and found in one of the menus something to make it fly more real. I also bought the Vietnam add on. Looking forward to seeing the carrier side of this sim. I hope I bought the correct sim. Thank you for any help you guys can offer. Waddy/Wad Cuter

I have heard of a flight sim call "F/A-18: Operation Iraqi Freedom". This flight sim came out a long time ago and at the time it just didn't do it for me. Does any one know if the one coming out not is the same or did they redo it? Alsom are there any links for this woth patches. Thanks for any help.

Thank you for the help. I found a squadron who will take me in and show me the tricks of the trade. The other thing I tried was just dive into it and get use to trying this or that til some thinks works. Thank you for the help. wad

it seems the problem was in to much speed. Once I droped the speed the trim wasn't so bad. Thanks

I am having a lot of trouble flying the Su25T. I can get the trim real close but as I roll in on the target the trim acts up and I spend my time trimming the plane and miss the target. I configured the up arrows and down arrows for trim. Can any help me out. Thanks

Do you have a link where I can get a playable demo of Call of Duty is there one for Call of Duty 2? Thanks

I have been through a few forums and I see all kinds of help files with Skins, Tip and Tricks and etc. What I am looking for is a short help file on basic take off and landing. In other words, a easy way to get into this. I have done a lot of reading so far. Just wondering if such a help file is out there some where. Thanks for any help. waddy

Sorry to disappoint Sgt. but I was unable to serve. I tried back in 65 and for personal reasons they wouldn't have me. All the same I love the core and the people who serve. A lot of dummies take our freedom for granted. Most of my high school wrestling team in high school went over to Nam and a lot didn?t come back. They brought the portable wall to town here and I saw most of there names. Not a good time. My brother in law served in the core for 25. Very proud of him.

Happy Birthday Marines "The safest place in Korea was right behind a platoon of Marines. Lord, how they could fight!" - MGen. Frank E. Lowe, USA; Korea, 26 January 1952 "Marines know how to use their bayonets. Army bayonets may as well be paper-weights." - Navy Times; November 1994 "Why in hell can't the Army do it if the Marines can. They are the same kind of men; why can't they be like Marines." - Gen. John J. "Black Jack" Pershing, USA; 12 February 1918 "The United States Marine Corps, with its fiercely proud tradition of excellence in combat, its hallowed rituals, and its unbending code of honor, is part of the fabric of American myth." - Thomas E. Ricks; Making the Corps, 1997 "The raising of that flag on Suribachi means a Marine Corps for the next five hundred years." - James Forrestal, Secretary of the Navy; 23 February 1945 (the flag-raising on Iwo Jima had been immortalized in a photograph by Associated Press photographer Joe Rosenthal) "I have just returned from visiting the Marines at the front, and there is not a finer fighting organization in the world!" - General of the Armies Douglas MacArthur; Korea, 21 September 1950 "We have two companies of Marines running rampant all over the northern half of this island, and three Army regiments pinned down in the southwestern corner, doing nothing. What the hell is going on?" - Gen. John W. Vessey Jr., USA, Chairman of the the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the assault on Grenada, 1983 "The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" - Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States, 1945 "Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. But, the Marines don't have that problem." - Ronald Reagan, President of the United States; 1985 "Marines I see as two breeds, Rottweilers or Dobermans, because Marines come in two varieties, big and mean, or skinny and mean. They're aggressive on the attack and tenacious on defense. They've got really short hair and they always go for the throat." - RAdm. "Jay" R. Stark, USN; 10 November 1995 "They told (us) to open up the Embassy, or "we'll blow you away." And then they looked up and saw the Marines on the roof with these really big guns, and they said in Somali, "Igaralli ahow," which means "Excuse me, I didn't mean it, my mistake". - Karen Aquilar, in the U.S. Embassy; Mogadishu, Somalia, 1991 "For over 221 years our Corps has done two things for this great Nation. We make Marines, and we win battles." - Gen. Charles C. Krulak, USMC (CMC); 5 May 1997 "Come on, you sons of bitches! Do you want to live forever? - GySgt. Daniel J. "Dan" Daly, USMC near Lucy-`le-Bocage as he led the 5th Marines' attack into Belleau Wood, 6 June 1918 "Gone to Florida to fight the Indians. Will be back when the war is over." - Colonel Commandant Archibald Henderson, USMC in a note pinned to his office door, 1836 "Don't you forget that you're First Marines! Not all the communists in Hell can overrun you!" - Col. Lewis B. "Chesty" Puller, USMC rallying his First Marine Regiment near Chosin Reservoir, Korea, December 1950 :Marines die, that's what we're here for. But the Marine Corps lives forever. And that means YOU live forever." - the mythical GySgt. Hartman, USMC; portrayed by GySgt. R. Lee Ermey, a Marine Corps Drill Instructor using his own choice of words in Full Metal Jacket, 1987 "You'll never get a Purple Heart hiding in a foxhole! Follow me!" - Capt. Henry P. Crowe, USMC; Guadalcanal, 13 January 1943 "We are United States Marines, and for two and a quarter centuries we have defined the standards of courage, esprit, and military prowess." - Gen. James L. Jones, USMC (CMC); 10 November 2000 "I have only two men out of my company and 20 out of some other company. We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will hold." - 1stLt. Clifton B. Cates, USMC in Belleau Wood, 19 July 1918 "I love the Corps for those intangible possessions that cannot be issued: pride, honor, integrity, and being able to carry on the traditions for generations of warriors past." - Cpl. Jeff Sornij, USMC; in Navy Times, November 1994 "Courage is endurance for one moment more..." - Unknown Marine Second Lieutenant in Vietnam "My only answer as to why the Marines get the toughest jobs is because the average Leatherneck is a much better fighter. He has far more guts, courage, and better officers... These boys out here have a pride in the Marine Corps and will fight to the end no matter what the cost." - 2nd Lt. Richard C. Kennard, Peleliu, World War II "A Marine should be sworn to the patient endurance of hardships, like the ancient knights; and it is not the least of these necessary hardships to have to serve with sailors." - Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery "Lying offshore, ready to act, the presence of ships and Marines sometimes means much more than just having air power or ship's fire, when it comes to deterring a crisis. And the ships and Marines may not have to do anything but lie offshore. It is hard to lie offshore with a C-141 or C-130 full of airborne troops." - Gen. Colin Powell, U. S. Army, Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff During Operation Desert Storm "This was the first time that the Marines of the two nations had fought side by side since the defence of the Peking Legations in 1900. Let it be said that the admiration of all ranks of 41 Commando for their brothers in arms was and is unbounded. They fought like tigers and their morale and esprit de corps is second to none." - Lt Col. D.B. Drysdale, Commanding 41 Commando, Chosen Reservoir, on the 1st Marine Division Division "You cannot exaggerate about the Marines. They are convinced to the point of arrogance, that they are the most ferocious fighters on earth- and the amusing thing about it is that they are." - Father Kevin Keaney 1st Marine Division Chaplain Korean War "There was always talk of espirit de corps, of being gung ho, and that must have been a part of it. Better, tougher training, more marksmanship on the firing range, the instant obedience to orders seared into men in boot camp." - James Brady, columnist, novelist, press secretary to President Reagan, television personality and Marine "The bended knee is not a tradition of our Corps." - General Alexander A. Vandergrift, USMC to the Senate Naval Affairs Committee, 5 May 1946 "By their victory, the 3rd, 4th and 5th Marine Divisions and other units of the Fifth Amphibious Corps have made an accounting to their country which only history will be able to value fully. Among the American who served on Iwo Island, uncommon valor was a common virtue." - Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, U.S. Navy "Being ready is not what matters. What matters is winning after you get there." - LtGen Victor H. Krulak, USMC April 1965 "The Marine Corps has just been called by the New York Times, 'The elite of this country.' I think it is the elite of the world." - Admiral William Halsey, U.S. Navy "I still need Marines who can shoot and salute. But I need Marines who can fix jet engines and man sophisticated radar sets, as well." - General Robert E. Cushman, Jr., USMC Commandant of the Marine Corps, 17 May 1974 "I can't say enough about the two Marine divisions. If I use words like 'brilliant,' it would really be an under description of the absolutely superb job that they did in breaching the so-called 'impenetrable barrier.' It was a classic- absolutely classic- military breaching of a very very tough minefield, barbed wire, fire trenches-type barrier." - Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf, U. S. Army Commander, Operation Desert Storm, February 1991 "I am convinced that there is no smarter, handier, or more adaptable body of troops in the world." - Prime Minister of Britain, Sir Winston Churchhill "The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle." - Gen. John "Black Jack" Pershing, U.S. Army Commander of American Forces in World War I "Do not attack the First Marine Division. Leave the yellowlegs alone. Strike the American Army." - Orders given to Communist troops in the Korean War; shortly afterward, the Marines were ordered to not wear their khaki leggings. "The American Marines have it [pride], and benefit from it. They are tough, cocky, sure of themselves and their buddies. They can fight and they know it." - General Mark Clark, U.S. Army "They (Women Marines) don't have a nickname, and they don't need one. They get their basic training in a Marine atmosphere, at a Marine Post. They inherit the traditions of the Marines. They are Marines." - LtGen Thomas Holcomb, USMC Commandant of the Marine Corps, 1943 "I've always been proud of being a Marine. I won't hesitate to defend the Corps." - Jonathan Winters, comic and Marine "Every Marine is, first and foremost, a rifleman. All other conditions are secondary." - Gen. A. M. Gray, USMC Commandant of the Marine Corps "A Ship without Marines is like a coat without buttons." - Adm. Farragut "If I had one more division like this First Marine Division I could win this war." - General of the Armies Douglas McArthur in Korea, overheard and reported by Marine Staff Sergeant Bill Houghton, Weapons/2/5
