I have an "older rig" and after installing, it loads to 80% and freezes. So unfortunately I can't enjoy it, but love seeing the screenies of other users who are. Looks ABSOLUTELY amazing! -

History of the boneyard
future_tuskegee_airman replied to MigBuster's topic in Military and General Aviation
Such a hallowed and sad place. I want to go visit one day but I would probably be too overcome with emotions. Most of those classic aircraft should be put in museums and flying collections for the future... -
INS Vikramaditya starts sea trials
future_tuskegee_airman replied to ghostrider883's topic in Military and General Aviation
That is such low freeboard it's scary! Are there any plans of putting the naval version of the Rafales on their carriers? -

Il-2 mods
future_tuskegee_airman replied to hrc's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: General Discussion
Do you have to pay for those mods? Or are they freeware? -
How do you use the gunsight/bombsight on Japanese planes?
future_tuskegee_airman replied to AceWardie1993's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: General Discussion
Thanks for this info! I just recently got back into IL-2 1946 and flying missions with the Ki-43 and I couldn't see through the gunsight. Still shot down 1 Hurricane and 2 Blenheims. Not too bad for "pray and spray" tactics. -
SF2 Series DACT Reports And Related A2A Discussions (Game only)
future_tuskegee_airman replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I remember watching Dogfights Season 1 or 2 and they had the 2 seat F-105F that had kills flown by Capt. Leo Thorsness who bagged a couple of MiG-17s in a Wagon Wheel (Medal of Honor Mission). I also remember reading in Osprey's F-105 Thunderchief Units of the Vietnam War about the exploits of the Thud pilots when going against the NVAF. They didn't talk too much about the tactics used. So I'm just surprised I pulled it off, and came out unscathed. I mean that MiG was just about to do the square turn that it is notorious for and that the game engine replicates so well! Great info! Thanks! I need to read up and study that! -
SF2 Series DACT Reports And Related A2A Discussions (Game only)
future_tuskegee_airman replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
No pictures but I surprised myself by splashing a MiG while flyng an F-105D, clean config after bombing mission. I had the height advantage, came down in a dive from about 10,000 feet at near 90 degrees and a left hand bank, speed between 600 and 580 knots. The MiG 17 was low and in a climb left hand climb trying to break into my flight path. I looked through the pipper and I know I lead him too much and I basically did a "pray and squeeze" putting in a 3 to 5 second burst of 20 mike mike which he miraculously flew right into. Tore his left wing off. I leveled out about 1,500 feet AGL and high tailed it out of there. Still surprised that I bagged a MiG-17 in a dive in a 105! Got me wondering in real life, would that even be possible? -
Even Il2 have two seaters F100 now.

I always wanted a 2-seat Hun...they are pretty awesome aircraft especially with the wild weasel role. -

F-100F 2 seat plane
future_tuskegee_airman replied to acesfakia's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I've tried the same thing...but it didn't work. The last time I tried it, I just got the reticule gun-sight or pipper to show up in the cockpit view. -

What are you ?
future_tuskegee_airman replied to TeargasHorse's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Vipers, I fell in love with that aircraft, but I learned how to drop using SLUF(F)s. Phantoms have taken the back burner...and SPADS! Old prop lover here! -
