It was a pretty good year overall, patch changes to .ini's confusion notwithstanding.

They'd said 9 months before, so we should expect it by the end of summer. I'm not sure if the A-10A or AH-64 is due next after that, but I'd guess the A-10A since it's just a different cockpit/avionics...FM and most weapons would be identical (like the Su-25/25T in Flaming Cliffs). I don't remember if they said they were putting the Longbow radar on the 64D or not, but I hope so.

So what kind then? F-111? A-6? TF-102? Ka-52? The possibilities!!

I had twin 5.25" FDDs on my old XT so I could put disks 1 and 2 in at the same time. Made loading faster, as it would automatically switch to disk 2 when it finished loading 1, and then I'd put 3 in the first drive. When 2 finished, it would start loading 3 and then I'd take out 2 and put 4 in the 2nd drive.

Maybe you're just the only one who'll admit having one?

I moved here in 2001. It was fairly built up by that time, but it was certainly 2 lanes each way by then.

LOL, so he "wants" BoB to be finished in 2009? I'd been hoping for 2008 myself...

Since you talked about MP, I'll just mention that BoB2 has no multiplayer. If you want to fly online, Il-2 is the way to go. For offline, BoB2 is just as good.

That's right, they're flying Bears out your way again now. I'm sure they were thrilled with photos of your ride.

You can make any claims you want about a plane that was never built.

You could go fly with what you had to start...it just wouldn't have been as good.

Interesting how many Europeans qualify in the 25-50% range. The weird thing is this goes mostly on how you say certain words or which ones you use, which really doesn't speak much to attitudes and THAT is usually the defining quality of whether one is "Yankee" or "Dixie."

I'd say "hope your kids don't see them" is more like it. The UK release of Tornado was a different publisher than the US and packaging was different. Here it looked more like another Falcon addon thanks to SpecHolo publishing it. Not so there.

Historically, far more women were burned at the stake than men. Plus, the witch in MP and Holy Grail was a female, which was where I was getting that line.

I thought planes like the 737 were optimized for 36k ft or so. Even if it's not flying right over the water at under 1000 ft like the P-3s do, I still would figure it's not going to climb that high between buoy drops. That means what, 10k ft or so? As mentioned, you can't shut off any engines when you only have 2, which the P-3s and others used to do to when you don't need to go fast. So while the normal range of a 737 far outstrips a P-3, it's going to burn a lot more fuel with climbing and descending and operating at non-optimal altitudes? The slow part is because if you find something and need to turn around and drop buoys in a certain area, well, airliners aren't known for great agility.

You fly TW sims with a gamepad??? Sacrilege! Blasphemer!! Burn her at the stake!! BURN HER!!!

36% for me, spent almost my entire life in Florida. However, my family are all from NY/NJ. Plus Florida isn't the south, as stated. It's the summer home for rest of the country and the "we're going to turn this into our old home" for everywhere south of the border.

DID's old EF2000 sim was that close in the FM department? Despite running on old 486s and P5's? That's amazing.

I got a 15" Dell model with an 8600GT and a C2D @ 2.4GHz for a balance between power and size. The 17" were just too big for traveling easy, but I wanted something that I could at least play some games at moderate power on. TK's sims are out, though, because I use a Cougar and that's not portable! I use it primarily for RTS and older (pre-Crysis!) FPS.

Uh, check the lower right of the 2nd pic. Jane's first was USNF and that came out later than all of those pictured.

Does one have to cut Jesus with powdered Buddha?

Welcome to the asylum!

I had all 4 out at once when I was in college. I don't remember exactly how long it took, around an hour or so. I wasn't asleep, though, it was just localized. I didn't go back to the dentist for 9 yrs after that.

So, where does one go to get what you guys are taking?

I had most of those as well. Never had Harrier or Birds of Prey, though. The Su-25 one was ok, but using the LHX engine it had lots of limitations. I liked the A-10 games out then better.
