Well doggies! That in a pod for the OV-10, Tucano, A-1, T-28, or even 2 in some old piston powered twin engine bug smasher would be a gas huh? :ph34r: CL

:fan_1: :ph34r: CL

I don't think your post is off topic. This is an aviation sim dominated by TW series players and moders. Yah the Blooper. The 40mm Grenade. Well Dogies! I have a picture somewhere of 2 auto 40mm grenade launchers mounted in the bay of a P-2V Neptune for zombie, I mean trails, roads interdiction missions. :ph34r: CL

40 minutes is up. :ph34r: CL

Bitchin' skin. I'll give you a carton of marlboros if you skin some USN AD-5 skins for razbams A-1Es. :ph34r: CL

That might be from the Janes series. That takes me back tho. Last time I said "altitude Altitude", ALTITUDE again and a pretty wicked series of expeletives from the cargo door in an SH-3H "we" were dragging our tail rotor thru the trees. I could hear it too. knocked all the end caps off. :ph34r: CL

I'll try to ping on you in 35 minutes. :ph34r: CL

Some where there is a film or at least a photo series of a crud driver punching out while his plane was still controllable. It was taken by his wingman. Some really excellant imagery. There is also some "film" from the plat somewhere of an ejection, can't remember if it was a cold cat or bad trap, but the pilot or NFO landed on the carrier deck with a partial chute. Broke some bones. Did better then some skiers do after a scrape. :ph34r: CL

Splatter Its undeaded carcass with the armored vehicle. That 8mm MG would be a sweet find. I need that brain bucket too so can cover it with tin foil for another thead here. :ph34r:

How about that bitchin M-113 with the Vulcan gun. Last I checked zombies can't penetrate modest armor. 20 mike mike and tracks I think would be pretty rough on the zombie population. Can't afford one and I probably wouldn't like all the the "special visitors" concerned about my vehicle. Do I have the proper equipment for a zombie event? Long range: M-1 Garand, Springfield Armory M-1A, Scoped Remington 700. Mid range: 2 of the self loaders above and a Winchester model 1200 with rifle sites. Close range: Again the 12 gauge. and a 45 acp Colt Combat Commander. To close for the temperement of an archer, riflemen, or pistolero: Stihl 390 chainsaw with a 24 inch bar, skip chain, racing fuel, Oooh Wee! I might be in my comfort zone now. While I or my swamper are refueling, again the 12 gauge. and the Colt Combat Commander. :ph34r: CL

Oh Yah. The testimononials are, uh inspirational? Zapato is a fun site. I like thier black helicopter thread. http://zapatopi.net/blackhelicopters/ I had the Life Cycle Of the Black Helicopter Diagram as my wallpaper on my work computer. It really freaked alot of people out so I changed it to picture of a handcrew bumping out from wind driven 70 foot flames. Nobody complanes about that one. :ph34r: CL

A whoping 4 years and 5 months for me 23 years ago. No clue what to say next. :ph34r: CL

Mark Twain said that paranoid people generally live longer. For my tinfoil hat I need one bush cover style to shade the top of my ears. I have a huge concern about the risk of skin cancer on the top of my ears. Anybody have a link for a source? Oh, and the number stuff. 1 plus 2 equals 3. coincidence? I don't think so. I don't know what it means but I'm sure it will effect us all. :ph34r: CL

Yup. My best luck with iron bombs when cluster bombs don't have the HE effect for success. 500 to 700 feet altitude. Pickle a string of snakeyes at a really wicked speed for your mudmover of choice. PGMs are grand, but nothing makes a better statement on your hostile country of choice then gobs of colateral damage. It's just not right when the enemy isn't whining that we took out a hospital, baby milk factory, orphanage, home for wayward fathers or such, to take out the altimate target that threatens peace, democracy, and any of the wildest whim of any CA member. Strap on a ride and go bomb stuff. :ph34r: CL

Posting a little late here. Sycophants? I know some of us play one or more of WOV, SF, WOE, WOI, and FE. I hope I didn't miss any. Since I found this site because I was way stoked with WOV and learned there was the other TK flight sims I always wondered if we had a name or title to all here. Disturbing black and white British film with ravens and starlings cackling in the background: Alpha: Good morning. Bravo: Good morning to you sir. Alpha: Do you have flying monkeys in your garden? Bravo: No sir. I have tree walrus' Alpha: Splendid. I can't believe I met another another sycophant for real. Bravo: Low voice please. There a few that would not be pleased to here that. Disturbing sound track. 2 men fast walking to the pub. :ph34r: CL

Bitchin' Although thinking back the answer for some pilots would be no. Its a tight fit. we did have a wicked rotor strike once. With rotors folded we could get the Sea King in the hanger. Another tight fit. Forward positioning for CSAR Perhaps? :ph34r: CL

Nice. Can you land an H-3 On the back? :ph34r: CL

2 More examples of MTO B-25s from IL2 skinners on flying legends. I like the USAAF MTO roundels. :ph34r: CL

Wouldn't it be splendid if we had a utility with a big pool of well modeled Default (got that allready) and "neutral" fuel tanks that adapt to the airplanes paint scheme. Chameleon tanks sort of. Example: A mixed flight of Bare Metal and SEA F-105s. The user choses the adaptive feature and the tanks match the tops and bottoms of the plane carrying them. Another example would be a user flying USN birds in the gull grey scheme of the 60s and 70s. He wants his 300 gallon tanks to be all white, not grey and white so he choses the default mode. This would be huge for planes like the F-86 that wear every imaginable color, warpaint, etc. I don't see this happening tho. The "chameleon" tanks would also show tail codes, squadron markings, national markings, walkways, radome colors, those rescue arrows and even a canopy painted on the bottom. That would be a bad trip for a rivet counter. Maybe entertaining for others. :ph34r: CL

False! I did watch a Care Bears cartoon that had a really wicked Vampire and Assistant. For 10 minutes it was the best thing since Beany and Cecil or Johny Quest, and then it got all warm and fuzzy with all sorts of Care Bear swill. I had to turn it off because I was starting to taste stomach fluids. The person below me has worn 2 different color socks with thier military uniform AND was laughing hystericly (perhaps not audibly) while pushing the deck or getting the lecture from the senior NCO or other. :ph34r: CL

And the person below you, ahh? :ph34r: CL

No kidding. I was being hauled back to the states on a C-141 and this loadmaster who was probably sporting more stripes then his paygrade looks at my 2 chevrons, Crow (that eagle thing), my Naval Aircrew wings, and asks or states that I'm an up and coming flight crewmen. I really wanted to take him behind the "comfort pallet" and sort this out but that wouldn't be the same as behind the line shack. Also it was his airplane. That could be one of my few brushs with good conduct and profesionalism or some form of responsible behavior on my part. When I was in the training squadron we had a Senior Chief converting to our helo who started his Naval Aircrew days in the back of an SBD in WW2. He was wearing those really bitchin aviation greens. I looked at his left sleeve and said "Sugar Senior Chief. How many service stripes do you have." His left fore arm was maxed out on stripes. He say's to me: "Shush. Not Enough!" I'd have no gripe with anybody calling me skipper and I would be stoked if some one called me Cammodore. :ph34r: CL

One Big Fierce Ditto There! I miss Justin Wilson. Interesting the male dominance and interest in cooking and the shows. :ph34r: Cl

For me it was the disbanding of the band Laika and the Cosmonauts. They did gobs of instrumental music. Big guitar stuff. :ph34r: CL

Ahh. Was your first choice flying Nimrods off the beach? One of the finest compliments I ever got was in the Navy Hospital. Operations officer (?) from an LA class tryed to recruit me for his boat. Good Luck Craig! I'm wondering when the RAN will have to go to there plan B. :ph34r: CL
