*Fast Eagle*

thought you'd like to know you have the honor of the better end of my first of many photos in my Hall of Flame...look and see http://www.pukindogs.net/Hall%20of%20Flame.htm And a nice kill it was at that

Column5, I'd greatly appreciate that, cause I still can't figure it out

We should thank Column5, as it was his site where I first found the link <S> THANKS COLUMN5 FOR YET ANOTHER GREAT SOURCE OF INFO

Found it. here it is http://home.earthlink.net/~jwgreer/f4history.htm

I have all the skins for the f-4b interchanged with the f-4e

this is the early variant of the Phantom, in the late 50's-early 60's. as the first 18 operational Phantoms were equipped with threat warning and detection systems

I see the point in your post, but the difference in price is, imho, why combat flight sim looks cartoonish. the game is decent, but it looks like a cartoon. I think that you avoid this fake look by using the best software for the job, regardless of price. (which sucks for guys like us) I've heard that there is going to be a way to use Gmax for SFP1, but this is only rumor, and I'm definately not the authority on modding/skinning, so don't quote me on that. But I've read about it at sim hq. I'll try to find the post and make a link to it here for you if you are interested

I can't figure out the php stuff yet. If anyone can help let me know please

needs some more work, as I'm not finnished yet, but please check it out and let me know what you think http://4.46.138.255 THANKS

cant wait, it looks pretty damn good so far. BRAVO ZULU

a copy of a decal set for a model plane...if it helps any... this plane looks like the one you found, but I guess you can pot the devil where ever you like, like the photo I found

Hammer, meet nail You sure hit the nail right on the head with that thought. My sentiments exactly

check this out http://www.microsoft.com/products/hardware.../GV/default.asp I have rw and have used it for years. I like it, but picked this up for the hell of it. It's actually pretty cool because you don't have to use keys, you can speak commands. this works killer for me so far. no more fumbling with keyboard while in flight you can chat with team and all also while in flight, if they have this too...thats the lame part, but the mic works with rw, so if you run em both it works out

Does anyone use this?? game voice, from microsoft. I just got 1 and its kinda cool, but I can't find anyone else to talk to

Here's another one

=(VF143)= is here. we couldnt resist, the 143 skin was just calling us We are always looking for a few good pilots to fill out the squadron

ok thanks, didn't see it, but I haven't been there in a while

Is it at all possible to get one of these from you fine skinners out there?? PLEASE
