One of the few internationally elite levels that the USA plays at is in Women's football. Two time World Cup winners.

I was thinking about this after reading about "Old 666". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_666 In all the times doing WOE in particular, only two aircraft ever were almost certain to get to the IP with a minimum of hassle and once there they were impossible to stop. They were the F-105 and the F-111. In DiD i kept losing pilots in the Thud until one day a light bulb went off over my head and i adjusted tactics to the strenght of the aircraft, mainly it's tremendous straight line speed at low level. Flying from Bitburg in the 62 campaign, the goal was to get up to 18-20,000ft before reaching the river and then nursing fuel until the front was crossed. after that it was at best possible speed to the IP. The IP was the key. It was ideally 30 but a few times 35-40 miles. Once committed towards the target area, it was full throttle and unless a MIG happened to be at the right spot, there a very difficult intercept. Within 20 miles with nose down towards the target it was virtually impossible for a MIG to get you. The egress was straight for about 20 miles and nothing on the planet at that time was going to catch a Thud at low level. Then it was back to altitude and go home. The F-111 was a bit different. Due to it's immense range and speed at altitude, one could keep track of what's going on via radar and radio and work around the worst of it until it was time to head for the deck and go after the target. One might have to worry about SAM and AAA, but very few fighters can make an intercept once an F-111 is on the bomb run. Even the egress is another experience as it is incredibly fast down low. Hell, as soon as i finish my current DiD, i'm going back to WOE to fly thses birds again.

The Destruction Of Army Group Center!

Just to let everyone know, i'm back in action and will post details of my latest mision when i get home from work tommorrow.

Freespace2? OMFG! :grin: Man, i played the demo to death and never had a chance to pick it up before it was too late. Oh hell yeah!

Forget about it. Think of ways to get out of the situation with minimum loss.

Damn, that's some lousy news to hear.

Anyone else go out of their way to piss off the religously obsessed? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dULbaMVWcsI

To be brutally honest, If i know for a fact that is no MIG threat forget about historical realism. I'll escort them right to the edge of the SAM belt then head to the rendevous point and circle until they show up.

I listen to everything possible except for Dance/Techno/modern pop/etc. Mainly though, i'm into the underground metal and Punk scenes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSqliYsH48Q&NR=1 Just can't find this kind of intensity anymore.

It's actually pretty good, even if it isn't what i really go for. If someone would have told me that this was a band from the late 80s i would have belived it.

Robert Capa at Omaha beach.

Nice for YOU. How about your AI guys? Seriously, given a choice i use CBUs as much as possible.

Due to various issues, i tended to arm my fellow SPAD drivers with full loads of either napalm or CBUs. A really nasty loadout is the Super Strafer loadout with two 20mm and two 7.62 pods under the wings.

Even as a little kid during the 70s a lot of that mentioned still applied. Man, how times do change!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I swear to God, it must be a law that boys are required to do something along those lines above. Dumbass me was once involved in a cherry bomb throwing duel and i still don't know how i didn't lose a few fingers when one went off while i was still holding it.

What's really funny is in the comments section, some idiots actually belive it was probaly due to "Chem trails"!

First off, more time should be spent on the Range if you have problems with Napalm. The weapon is fine. Most likely your delivery is somehow at fault. I'm flying a B26K in WOV right now and CBUs are my weapon of choice for soft targets. Napalm is right behind it followed by 2.75 rockets (mainly flechettes.) WP is also a great piece of ordnance as you can a carry a max load of since they don't weigh much. BTW everyone-Fly DiD for a real challenge!

That's exactly what i was thinking the first time heard it. I like really off the wall song structures but this band had nothing going for it except for image. Lots of teen girls will easily go for them on the basis of that alone.

I didn't even get through the first minute and a half of this "song" before i had to fire up some quality tunes to wipe the memory of the horror.
