Typhoid

Kevin, Did a little trouble shooting and I was mixing the wrong problem with the wrong terrain. sorry abou that. what I am getting with the scal terrain is that all of the aircraft show up in the same place at start, on the runway, and my plane blows up. If I start airborne - everything runs fine.

yep - still keeping us a little occupied. That particular route has become rather common of late.

in Roman Numerals!!

and some more

a few more

just stay confident, upbeat, positive outlook and all will come out OK. and get plenty of sleep the night before - don't worry about it.

"Very simple my friend. You found the end of the internet. Oh wait..." no, that's here http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm

From 2006, the retirement of the last C-141 - The Hanoi Taxi A Bit of military history you might be interested in seeing. C-141 Tail Number 60177 was the last of the 285 C-141's built by Lockheed to leave active service. She flew 100 POWs out of Hanoi on 12 February 1973, some of them tasting freedom for the first time in six years. Each POW put their shot-down date on the face of the oxygen panel during their flight to Clark Air Base in the Philippines . For her retirement ceremony, some of the POWs she brought home were brought back for the ceremony and one last flight by this gracious lady. Most of them are old men now but their enthusiasm, emotions, and excitement were evident during this flight and retirement ceremony. She was then flown to Dayton , Ohio where she will spend her final days in the Air Force Museum. A very touching video - Be sure to turn on the sound.

"By Dave That's kinda pathetic when you're painting a simulated kill marking on your plane..." you've got that right!

same here, except that my D drive is a completely independent second drive. Just set up the pointers (move) and everything works just fine. that is how I've been set up for years - which protected my data from being wiped out by a C drive virus meltdown. When I installed SF2 it just went automatically to that spot and loaded up without any issues. now - I haven't had time (yet) to build extra installs of SF2 - but it should work the same way. Just move or copy whatever you want into the appropriate folder.

the story that I heard on those (about fortyfifth hand....) was that the Raptor came down into a furball and simply didn't see that other guy coming up from behind. pretty much the rule from decades past that it is the guy you didn't see that bagged your @$$..... but since the exchange rate was somewhere in the hundred to one, I wouldn't put the Raptor out to pasteur just yet.

its called "bankruptcy" and is simply a means to find another revenue source. as to why - that would get into the political.

but any guests you sent invites to wouldn't be able to find the boat.............

not silly at all. would have to have the right elevation and such in it. One problem though, how would you catapult off and trap back aboard? On the Midway terrain, I still keep falling into the sea and exploding half way through the take off run. Not sure why.

Happy Birthday!! Only 16?!!! $#@%# that makes me feel old!!

"Every g..-d..n day" you do realize that if we quote Patton too much - this might challenge the "family friendly" rating of the site!!

Need to put the tankers on a force generation requirement at the various levels of readiness - which I will not further explain...... So when you need them - what you need is there. When the stuff hits the fan is not the time to be putting in Request For Forces memos. that still leaves the bulk of the tanker force under AMC for the standard missions being done today.

"Typhoid: why'd you need to extract stuff from the cat?" thought you mentioned something above about editing something that you had to extract. short point is that there is something odd, but I haven't had time to properly troubleshoot it yet. Just adding my two pennies that there is something that is not working quite right. i've tried this with the sf2 desert.cat - ctd (but in a woe install) and the germanyce.cat - ctd other terrains work fine. when I get a chance to get back to the sim (in about two weeks.....) I'll do a more thorough job of troubleshooting.

reminds of a time when my company had some small conference and had a nice left over vegetable platter in the employee break room. Looked like some nice cool green peppers with dip on it. they weren't............. (no one, of course, warned anyone else coming in about it!) cost a few manhours...................

aint that the truth!! :yes:

actually, I am having the same problem. can't do the data extractor - that no longer works or is blocked by something. have definitely got the data cat files installed and have tried several. same result. presently on the back shelf for the moment but watching the thread.

did you install all the pieces? I've installed the ODS mod into its own folder and have no problems with it. I've not modded a thing beyond adding a beta aircraft in development just for grins. I am currently flying a carrier based campaign. No problem. The carrier is there.

just install the carrier.

need some Habanero chopped fine and mixed in

purely second-hand - but an associate of mine is a former F-106 driver. He said one time long ago that the doors were automatic when the firing button was pushed and the missile was pushed out and fired with the doors retracted very, very quickly. he stated that he could fire supersonic although I don't recall him stating any particular limitation. he also said that the profile for firing a nuke at supersonic followed by evasion for survival was - "interesting"
