  1. Enter the Nighthawk
  2. If you use the Oct. 2008 patch it gives you weapons automatically...
  3. IMHO this is the most beautiful aircraft I've ever flown! I'd like to express my gratitude to the creators of this marvelous aircraft! Thanks for making my dream of flying this thing come true!
  4. I am urged by my conscious and being a Christian I have to speak out. This is wrong. Point blank. There is no gray area in regards to this issue. Once you legalize any drug, then more people will be lobbying to legalize harder drugs. It all goes down hill from there. I expected this to happen. Just not so soon. But I'm still going to keep my faith and keep praying for America. Cameron
  5. Looking really sweet! Keep up the good work!!!
  6. she's looking beautiful! Keep up the good work!
  7. VERY VERY NICE!!!!!
  8. I know this is old school BUT... P-61 Black Widow! <<<My all-time favorite aircraft!
  9. Thanks! I love the Gripen and the Tornado. Too bad the Gripen will never be flown without the drab national insignia. I'd love to see it with displayed with a little bit of color. It think it would look nicer. If only they had some Luftwaffe F-4's and Italian Typhoons...It would make the perfect combination!
  10. RAF Fairford was holding a military excercise, nice place to spot Gripen & Tornado action. These pics aren't my own. I found them online.
  11. Another aircraft I can't wait to get my hands on! I just wanted to take this time and opportunity to tell you I do appreciate your work! Keep it up!
  12. So if they have a centerline gun pod, won't there be a lack of accuracy because of vibration just like the Phantom pilots complained about during Vietnam?
  13. I just thought this was interesting. I was browsing on hyperscale.com and found these pics IMHO I think that the F-35 looks like a very clean aircraft, but the only thing that kind've amazed me is that the navy was considering that the F-35C be built without and internal gun! (to save weight is the official reason) I honestly hope that the Navy Dept doesn't repeat the mistakes that they made during before Vietnam! (Sound Familiar...Hint Hint *F-4 Phantom 2)
  14. Sorry I coudn't post directly on topic, my rig is down 4 now, but this is the closest thing I've got. Plus we don't really have Autumn out in Southern Cali. Enjoy
  15. The F-117 would be a superb addition to the game! But I also noticed the Su-30 MKI Marc Fighters was working on too!!!
  16. Glad to hear that you don't have any problems, I'm planning on upgrading from and ATI 9800 to X1650 Pro, and I was wondering how well it worked.
  17. Yes, those turns would be time consming, I know you practically have to do that with the P-40 Warhawk. I love the Spad, all variants of it. And I do think the person who modeled that has a great "imagination" f you will. I just prefer tricycle undercarriage rather than tail-draggers. How was I complaining? I was stating the obvious. And I have my opinion just as you can have yours. To each his own.
  18. Hey Stratos! Have you tried using the tactic called vertical rolling scissors? It's worked miracles when I used that going against Mig-21's while I'm flying the F-4E. After scissoring multiple times, I've pulled into the vertical and then rolled over on the top almost like doing a vertical scissors, then dove in on him for a head on pass.
  19. I think the color scheme is pretty, but that nose is too long to be practical! I'd hate to try & taxi that thing out. I doubt I'd be able to see over the nose! I do love the wing tip tanks though!
  20. PHANTOM BREAK PS. That F-35 JSF is looking GORGEOUS!!! Can't wait until that is available!!!!
  21. I was just wondering if you were only offering the skin, or were you offerring the whole aircraft? If it's only the skin, where can I find a complete Mirage 2000-5?
  22. Streakeagle I just had a quick question. Did you read the osprey publication Where the Iranians were actually able to test the F-14 vs the F-15 and their response? I'll try to summarize what they said as best as possible from memory. (I own the book and have read it from cover to cover twice) "Both the IIAF and the Shah had studied the F-14A and the F-15A since their inception. In 1972, we learned that the F-15A with the AIM-7F missile was to be a deadly fighter-weapon mix, but not as deadly and the AIM-54-armed F-14A. It was clear to us that the F-14/AWG-9 pulse Doppler radar/AIM-54 combination would be unequalled in the world." He goes on to say, "...we also concluded earlier on that the F-15A would not be as manoeuvrable or as flexible as the F-14A. The Tomcat has very straightforward flight chatacteristics, but is highly agile...the F-14A always wins against the F-15A." And if you doubt his credibility he states, "I was later to fly F-15As with the USAF in mock-dogfights against US Navy F-14As." The Iranians chose the F-14A over the F-15A not only because of what was mentioned above but also; to have a "flying radar" to cover the lapses in radar coverage along with an interceptor of Mig-25R's. If you need anymore info I will be more than happy to supply.
