He always runs while others walk...
He acts while other men just talk...
He looks at this world and wants it all...
So he strikes like Thunderball...

A full-color version of the maps from the inside covers of the NJO books!

It does? Ugh, the 107 looks like the designer was drunk! Needless to say its high alpha performance would've been nonexistent as the cockpit would've choked off the engine.

I would've been surprised if there wasn't one.

You were in HS when Toy Story came out?!?! Man, I feel old.
Anyway, mine is rather self-explanatory. I got it back in the SWOTL days for my tendency to "know" when I have an enemy plane on my six and break before I get hit. I just "used the Force."
They say in air combat most of the planes shot down never saw the one who did it. That never happens to me...it's always the one I'm trying to shoot down that gets me!

My wife actually does more than I do.

Yes, but I'm unaware that RF was ever held outside of Nevada before this.

The funny thing is the A-9 looks like it was built for the same purpose as the Su-25, and the A-10 totally different.
While the A-10 can do CAS, it was built as a tank killer. The A-9 and Su-25 can kill tanks, but not as well...they were built for CAS.

Of course, the less well known they are the harder they are to make as you have less reference material.

With natural haze in the atmosphere making things look gray it's no wonder that low-vis gray is the most popular paint scheme now no matter which plane/helo it is. Also blends in if you're parked on the tarmac. Only from above at short range is it really visible.

Fixing some last minute bugs that cropped up I hear.

I guess I'm just surprised they called it Red Flag Alaska. That's kind of like saying "Washington D.C., Florida."
-
Yeah, I've seen those safety videos where they tow the truck behind the airliner and let it go tumbling away.
-
How coincidental that I'd just watched the episode of "Dogfights" featuring him last week. A truly creative mind.

I've never been there. Still looking to make it there someday.

"...not my idea of courage! More like...suicide!"

Well, there may be a randomization thing in there ie ejections fail to save you a certain amount of the time even if you do it in time due to seat failure or something.

Nothing like the airspeed reading 400kts and the GPS telling you you're going backwards.

TM went downhill after it was sold to Guillemot. In the old Hoffman/Church days the place was tops. I had several FCS, a pro FCS, the T1 wheel, and the complete FLCS/TQS/RCS combo. Now I have the Cougar. I must say I had almost zero issues until my first FLCS was a few years old, in the late 90s. I sent it back to TM for repair/replacement like 5 times in a 2 year period for things like the keyboard part failing or wild spiking or so on.
Bob's SWF22 digital chips fixed most of that and I was fat and happy until gameports became obsolete.

That's a new definition of the term "aggressor."

ArmA/OFP supports multiple players in one helo. Whether flying an attack helo like the AH-1 or just being the gunner in a UH-60 it's a fun thing to do.

Sweet!

The Tomcats were old and cost too much to maintain in comparison. The Hornets offered 85% capability for 50% of the cost or so.

The old B-17 sims from MPS had missions that were hours long. You could time compress, of course. Take off from England, circle while your squadron forms up, fly out, over the Channel/North Sea, into enemy airspace...braving flak and/or fighters until your IP, line up with the Norden, drop, turn for home and back all the way to England...hoping your gear still works, you're in one piece, and you don't crash.
