Beh, direi che è QUEL periodo dell'anno, quindi un augurio di Buon Natale e Felice Anno Nuovo a tutti. Mi raccomando, non mangiate troppi panettoni che poi non entrate più nell'abitacolo

Bella segnalazione, è un'ottima fonte per recuperare materiale fotografico e informazioni

Sea Harrier was available on Avsim, IIRC. Some time ago i did a 801 sq. Falklands skin, but I didn't really finished it, so I didn't upload it here. If you're interested send me a PM and I will send you the files.

IL2 (e tutta la sua sterminata famiglia) è diventato, a ragione, la base per ogni simmer: ha una quantità incredibile di aerei a disposizione e un buon numero di scenari diversi. Aggiungi la quasi totale assenza di cheat, il fascino della IIGM, una community su hyperlobby vastissima e non sbagli a comprarlo. Credo che 1946 (il dvd che contiene tutti gli aggiornamenti) lo porti via per un tozzo di pane. E il combattimento aereo è solo una parte di quello che puoi fare, ho passato delle belle serate sui circuiti di air racing. Occhio se vai online da solo però, ci sono delle volpi che hanno anni di pratica e ci mettono un attimo a parcheggiarsi a ore 6. Però se vuoi veramente provare qualcosa di "spesso" sui caccia moderni, Falcon AF è il massimo e fa sembrare Lock On un giochino arcade per Playstation! 700 pagine di manuale, avionica simulata in ogni particolare, la migliore campagna dinamica e il piacere di volare sui nostri cieli. Devi essere un po' fanatico, ma ti fai sicuramente una cultura anche solo a leggerti il manuale

View File F-104G Photoshop Template This is the Photoshop template I used to create my F-104G skins. I left untouched most of the layers so you will be able to adjust the weathering to your taste quickly. Included in the files are the base layers for both standard NATO camouflage and natural metal finish. I've spent several hours creating these files so, if you're going to use them in a public release, just give me some credit for them These files are for the stock ThirdWire F-104G only.

View File VF-84 Jolly Rogers VF-84 "Jolly Rogers" - The Final Countdown, circa 1980 This skin depicts the paint scheme in use at the time the movie "The Final countdown" was shot. In 1980 VF-84 participated in this motion picture, which propelled the skull-and-crossbones-adorned F-14's to international stardom. The movie featured a memorable scene involving two VF-84 Tomcats engaging two Japanese A6M Zeros. Installation instruction in the readme.txt included.

Yes, I'd get the SHar too, much easier to park and you don't need a radar operator. But with the Tonka you can get in the car pooling lane

Io ho WOE + WOV con l'installazione merged, comprati in coppia dopo una recensione convincente su SimHQ. Penso che comprerò la prossima incarnazione, ma sinceramente aspetto di vedere se A) sarà possibile integrarlo agli altri due, ma soprattutto B) se ci saranno le attese novità per l'avionica degli aerei. E' tanto bello sapere che ci sono F-22, Eurofighter e Gripen in lavorazione, ma se uscissero ora sarebbero sicuramente castrati.

Well, it looks like some head has fallen "The widespread disregard for nuclear weapons safety standards by airmen at Minot and Barksdale Air Force bases led to the unprecedented “Bent Spear” incident in which six nuclear warheads were mistakenly loaded onto a B-52 and flown from North Dakota to Louisiana on Aug. 29-30, Air Force officials said Friday after an intensive six-week investigation. The Air Force relieved the 5th Munitions Squadron commander at Minot immediately after the incident. On Friday, it announced that three more commanders have been sacked. They are: ** Col. Bruce Emig, wing commander, 5th Bomb Wing, Minot Air Force Base; ** Col. Cynthia M. Lundell, commander, 5th Maintenance Group, Minot Air Force Base; and ** Col. Todd C. Westhauser, commander, 2nd Operations Group, Barksdale Air Force Base." latest on AF Times

I've uploaded the last 104G, 6° Stormo 1970s. It is the last starfighter (at least for now), since I want to start some new project, so that's it. I hope you enjoyed them as I did, doing them; but don't worry, in the next days I will upload my full template. I just have to reduce a bit the size (right now it's over 100MB), so you can continue increase the fleet of 104s

View File F-104G Italian Air Force 6° Stormo 6° Stormo A. Fusco, 154° Gruppo - 1970s This skin depicts the tipical italian starfighter paint scheme used in the 70s, in NATO tactical camouflage with large national markings and big white numbers. The Squadron was disbanded after the armistice in 1943 and reformed in 1952 as a fighter-bombers squadron, the insignia is the famous Red Devil and it's named after Alfredo Fusco, ace and Medaglia d'Oro al Valore recipient, shot down during WWII over Albania. In 1965 154° Gruppo was awarded the "NATO flying safety" award, totaling 5000 hrs without any accident. Quite remarkable, since they were flying the dreaded Zipper! This skin is for the original Third Wire F-104G model only. Installation instruction in the readme.txt included.

A little update on the work so far. I have fixed a few things I wasn't satisfied with and I can say it's almost done. Just a few more days you'll be ready to splash some Zero with this cat

View File F-104S ASA M Italian Air Force 37° Stormo F-104S ASA M 37° Stormo, 18° Gruppo In mid '90s Italian Air force abandoned the traditional NATO tactical camouflage for the air superiority gray, now in use as a standard paint scheme. ASA M planes were intended to be pure interceptors and air defence fighters. The squadron insignia is a stork delivering its "load" and it's named after Cesare Toschi, Medaglia d'Oro al Valor Militare recipient, for his actions over Malta during WWII. The Gruppo motto is "Ocio che te copo" (watch it or I kill you). In '99 it operated CAP mission over the Balcans during Operation Allied Force. This skin is for the F-104S-ASA M mod available on Combat Ace and you'll need both JET-Z S/ASA mod available on his site (http://www.12packproductions.com/JetZ/index.html) and the original F-104G by ThirdWire.

Well after all the 104s I thought I could try my hand on something different. So here's my attempt to skin the Tomcat, it is supposed to be squadron's first cruise in the late 70s, or, if you prefer, this could be "The final countdown" skin It's still in progress, I have to fix decals, adjust weathering and all, but I'm starting to be satisfied with the result so far. I don't know that much about US NAVY and this is probably paul.nortness backyard, so any comment and suggestion is appreciated.

Just uploaded 37 Stormo ASA M. Next is going to be this one: F-104G 6° Stormo 154 Gruppo, 1970s Thanks all for your comments

Oh, she's so good looking! Great job craigbrierley, can I volunteer for skinning this beauty?

Sarà che il Phantom è bellissimo di suo, ma ci stanno benissimo Usa le coccarde piccole a bassa visibilità, aggiungi i numeri ed è perfetto

I've just uploaded the two above. This is going to be next: 37 Stormo ASA M Spillone, it would be a real hell trying to adapt this template to Ajundar's, but if you really want to give it a go send me a PM Starfighter, thanks for your words, I hope you'll like the next ones
