  1. Great work, A-Team. This will be a valuable addition to the series' fleet of aircraft. Mucho interesting missions will be possible with this mod. Thanks for your continued hard work for the sim.
  2. Great plane, great project. Thanks for your work on this one.
  3. This is one mighty awe-inspiring addon. I have installed the effects in WoE and it was incredible seeing a 30,000ft mushroom cloud hanging over East Berlin! The important thing is to get well away before the world flashes and burns. 25,000 feet on afterburner was enough to avoid becoming toast! Thanks again, Lexx!
  4. Same deal here. I have really got into making and tweaking missions. I am looking for a super-real feeling, so it is an endless task. Have also got into playing for making movies lately. I am currently working on a 'Ride of the Valkyries' film in WoV. But it is still great to load up a Thud and swing North...
  5. Thanks, Dave and team for the package. The Foxbat is such a key Cold War aircraft. No threatened nuclear war is co,mplete without it.
  6. Thanks! I am looking forward to installing and using these. It will be great to have such powerful effects. Last night I was looking at a BBC documentary on the race for the hydrogen bomb and some of the atmospheric tests were awe-inspiring to watch. Pity poor Kazakhstan and Eniwtok Atoll!
  7. Good luck with your experiments - I would really like to know what the outcome is as this would be an important and useful tool.
  8. Thanks for your work. Very useful help.
  9. Looking forward to this! Like you, I think YAP has revolutionised the game and their stuff is terrific. I look forward to more heliborne possibilites - for me that is the essence of the Vietnam War. Thanks - and good luck with the rest of the project.
  10. On my way through the forum today, I saw that there had been over 680 thousand donwloads for the ThirdWire series and 1.3 million views! Incredible! Congratulations to the CombatAce team - and thanks for running this massive resource base for TK's series and others. It is hard to imagine life without this site.
  11. If you buy YAP, you get a heap of static aircraft. I have a great looking airbase in Vietnam with a PanAm Boeing 707, C-130s, F-105s and F-4s on the apron. At night they have lights on, etc. They have just added MiGs. These make great targets.
  12. This is a cool machine to fly. The detail is excellent. As Dave says, worth the price of admission for this alone. Mine got scratched in much the same way!
  13. Cheers and thanks for your work on this one.
  14. Thanks OTC team for the great update. This is a favourite of mine and it is great to see it back. Was watching a programme last night on the spy Oleg Penkovsky, who gave the CIA and MI6 the manuals and plans for Soviet missiles which enabled them to rumble the Soviets in Cuba. Made me wonder about OTC and, hey presto!, here it is! Thanks again!

    It is only annoying when making movies. Sometimes the planes bounce quite a lot. When I am trying to film the player plane, it is better to go on to wing leveller. The idea of the planes porpoising is to stop it looking like a 2-D cartoon.

    Is this for single missions or campaigns? There is a simple porcess of a couple of steps for single missions. Campaigns are way more complex.
  17. Also try Craig Baker's F-105 website. It has a lot of stuff of general interest besides F-105 stuff. Some good movies showing action.
  18. Ken Bell, 100 Missions North - great F-105 Stories
  19. Not easy. You need to fly level and then put it into a banking turn to depress the guns to hit the ground. It is easy to lose your bearings so you have to re-orientate frequently. Either that or end up ploughing into the dirt. Just practice on something that does not shoot back and you will get the hang of it.
  20. Prefer shooting those dudes down but it's a great campaign and doesn't do any harm to empathise with the other side. Thanks.
  21. Thanks, Dave. Thoght I might have to. Looking forward to this mod in action. Cheers.
  22. Just a query, Dave. Do you know if this mod is compatible with YAP? There have been some speech additions in their packs and it may be case of having to edit manually to put in the Wingman sound - which is a great mod - along with the YAP additions. I would be grateful for any advice/info. Thanks.
