O.K., in modern radar symbology, i can identify the target's closing rate, altitude, heading, and speed. However, there are these characters that are bascialy in the top center of the radar that I have no idea of what they are telling me. It consists of any variety of numerical digits accompanied by alphabetical digits, mainly either R, L, or H (don't know if there may be any otheres, those are the only three that I've seen). At first, I thought it was telling me the type and number of weapons that were on board... R = radar, L = laser, and H = heat seeking. But then I would see double digits next to them and said to myself, "they can't have 16 radar guided weapons!" So, what do these alpha numeric digits mean? I did do a search and looked in the K.B. (since I am a stickler for people to do that first) and couldn't find anything relating to what I am discussing. I've been wondering about this for many months, and honestly, I was a bit too emabarrassed to ask since I am in the Air Force, and a jet junky, and figured that out of all people, I should easily know what these symbols are. But I don't, and I really want to know. So, I guess I have to swallow my pride and ask out in the public forum on what these things are.

Ya know what, this is what we should call Del's F-29... Mule! On a more serious note though, I don't think this is a case where the mule has tangled with mountain lions before. I think this is a situation where the mule and the dogs have live with each other at the hunter's property long enough to where it just become an issue of loyalty between them. The mule observed the lion going after the dogs, in which the mule is probably very loyal to, and because of that, the mule, without hesitation, charges in to protect them. You would kind of think that the situation would be turne around where the lion would go after the mule, and the two dogs would go after the lion to protect the mule.

Owners should take down the sign at their ranch that says "Beware of Dog" and replace it with "Beware of Bad @$5" So, does that saddle have score cards on how many moutain lions that've been claimed by the mule?

I just found out that if he is found guilty (and without a doubt he will be), he'll face a sentence of up to 15 years in prision. Isn't that kind of lenient considering what he did?

Just no forks and knives on board. Apparently, they've been considered as an unauthorized item aboard AWACs.

Perhaps I used the wrong choice of words. It was just a reaction to the stuff that I've seen in my community in the past 28 years. I would love to get further into this subject, but this is not the place for a political debate.

well, ya know, if you got a mic, you can always record yourself, or friends, and use that to replace .wav speech files. I agree, I never really was fond of the speech files that came with this sim. I thought they weren't very true to the bearing and discipline that I know of in the military, and to the realness of the situtations.

Perhaps we should start a poll for a new name for Dave... kind of like how a pilot gets his/her callsign... from their fellow pilots. What a great way to begin the trasition from ADAF to AFRC

Can you say... "Holy blown nocturnals Batman!"

Honestly, I've given FF a fair chance, and my opinion is that it still needs further development. The only thing that FF does is vibrate your hand around, makes over exagerated jerks to missile launches, and make the stick stiff to simulate how hard it is to pull up due to G-forces. However, this system can get fatigues after time, and it will start acting up out of the blue. You could be flying straight and suddenly the stick starts bouncing insanely (and it's not because of turbulance). The best stick that I've gotten so far is the CH fighterstick. It's not FF, but it's a lot more functionable.

I don't know. Maybe Griffen or Arc Angel or Seraphim or Pheonix (yeah, I know it's a name of a missile).

He better not fly around Georgia, or he might run into that Mig-29 over there

I can't handle sours all that well. Don't get me wrong, the taste is deffinately something that leaves an impression on you, but it kind of gets to my stomache though.

Right now, they're pushing for a gang exclusion zone in my neighborhood. Bascially, anybody who is caught out in the public who is a member of a gang, participating in a gang activity, is known to be associtated with people in a gang, or has the appearance of being a gang member is subject to be searched by the police. I think it's a good idea. Their are folks that are pressing the issue that it's a civil right's violation. I really don't see it as a violation. Since their behavior and presence presents a significantly clear and present danger to the local community, the issue of civil rights becomes mute.

My video game days started way back in the 80's. For fictional stuff, it would have been After Burner on the Sega Master System and the arcade version. For the PC (on an ancient 8386), it would have been Microprose's Gunship.

What did you do? 3dmax is known to have some bugs that do these kinds of things. It is frustrating, but not as frustrating when you don't have a recently saved piece of work.

So old, but so funny.

did you have a previous save of it? also, you can expand how many times you can undo something in max.

Wait a minute... how the heck do they have sound? I can never hear the missiles flying by. The only time I hear a missile is when I launch one... and it's only the launch that I hear.

All are the same except for maybe WOI.

I already told Dave that Russia's best excuse is that the pilot in the Fulcrum was on a training mission, somehow got off course, and thought he locked up onto a targeting drone and fired at it. Denying the whole incident only proves more that they did it, knew that it was wrong, and don't want to fess up to it.

All except Kosovo. Actually, even though that terrain is fubared, I still occasionally fly over it. I think the ones that you'll find most enjoyment out of is the Israel and Israel 2 terrains, and the Malvinas terrains.
