I like it! Happy to see the Candid in the game. Now a white UN livery and I am down memory lane again. Ahhhhhhhh, the flight I had with Maybe Airlines in Sarajevo in 1994..... unforgettable! Maybe Airlines.... there was a story back then...... still laugh about it: STORY FROM A JOURNALIST (David Hands): Sarajevo december 1993 "Maybe Airlines" Maybe Airlines was the official airline flying to and from Sarajevo during the war. It was a joint operation run by Norwegians and flights where British, Canadian, US, Norwegian and German. The typical plane used to transport cameramen was the four-engine Hercules. As you can imagine, with a name like Maybe Airlines, and a joint UN operation there are many stories to tell. Why call it Maybe Airlines? Well, this was a typical conversation you had with the "check-in" counter: You: "Is there a plane going to Split today?" Maybe Airlines: "Maybe" You: "Is it taking journalists?" Maybe Airlines: "Maybe" You: "Are there seats on this plane?" Maybe Airlines: "Maybe" You: "Is it going to be on time?" Maybe Airlines: "Maybe" You: "Can I take all my equipment on board?" Maybe Airlines: "Maybe" You: "Are we going to be shot down?" Maybe Airlines: "No" You: "No? What do you mean by NO? You are supposed to say Maybe." Maybe Airlines: "We never say maybe on that question because you may be shot down and we don't want to scare you off. Have a pleasant flight!" You: "Maybe" You are boarding the airplane. You find your seat, sit down and get comfortable. The air steward stands in the isle and makes his announcement. "Welcome onboard Maybe Airlines flight to Sarajevo. Please listen carefully to the following safety instructions. This is a non smoking flight. Please refrain from smoking in the toilet and near the ammunition. Make sure your seat belt is fastened at all times. Please put on the life vest over your bulletproof jacket. Please wear this parachute over your bulletproof jacket. Some of you may have never used a parachute before but do not worry about it. When we say jump, jump. Thank you for flying Maybe Airlines, have a pleasant flight" (fright?) Maybe! Our exit from Sarajevo was without too many events. We heard a noise as we where taking off, probably a bullet, but since we were still flying I assumed we were doing all right. Almost an hour later and we were still airborne and getting close to Split Airport in Croatia. We started to descend and then surprisingly we started to ascend again. We overshot the runway and started to turn around. A crewmember ran to the back of the plane. He started to hit something with great passion, I could not see what. He stopped and ran back to the cockpit. The plane then started going from left to right, jerking violently. The crewmember ran back once more. The whole process was repeated and then we started to descend again. I held on to anything that looked solid and waited. We landed and to my surprise it was a nice smooth landing. As I was getting off the plane I saw the crew member who was running up and down a few minutes ago and I asked him if everything was OK. "Yeah, sure mate" he replied with a grin on his face "We just couldn't get the landing gear down. Will you be flying with us soon?" "Maybe yes, maybe no"

I have both Gen1 and Gen2 TW sims working just fine. System is a P4EE Shuttle with Win7.

I was a conscript of The Netherlands Army in 1994 and was given the nickname Jansen because of my unpronouncable Swiss last name (= Ruedisueli...). Jansen was chosen because there wasn't any in my platoon (??) and that was it. Shortly after I was sent to Bosnia with the UN and came in a batallion where there were more than one Jans(s)en named guys, so one clever sargeant took a look at my real last name and decided to christen me "muesli". A name that was used in my whole tour, and stuck with my army buddies so much that even my civ friends started using it. Now, almost everyone I know on a friendly basis calls me Muesli!

You can use bits of the skin I made a time ago. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=7197

I know!

Well, I rather have a screeching stove pipe up my bum, as I am a jet lover. Sorry buddies! Maybe in a near or later future when cashflow is good again! Until then, talk to you later mates!

I am not, but I am a sim flyer and befriended to all on the board. Happy flights! Muesli

I have a GeForce 8600 GT of 1 GB and have a 1920x1080 resolution on my iiYama E2208HDS, works like a charm on my P4EE Shuttle!

This is my home turf. The pretty little city called Breda, located in the southern part of The Netherlands near the Belgian border. 25 Kilometres from Antwerp, 45 kilometres from Rotterdam, 100 kilometres from Amsterdam. Famous for the Jazz Festival, Harley Davidson Day, Balloon Fiesta, Netherlands Military Tattoo, the pretty church and the Great Market (best place to drink a wine or beer in the summer, and watch pretty women parade). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breda Cheers!

Al the TW sims run straight "out of the box"! I am so chuffed with Win7!!!!!!!!

"The man who knew too little" with Bill Murray as an utter nitwit, driving a mini round a roundabout really cracked me up. Because I also have one, I know what fun that is! Looks great. Dunno what the rest of the movie was about though... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuNjC16r4YI

Scuse me.... yep they are!

Jolly Rogers Panthers. (I stand corrected.... Cougars...)

Like Silverbolt already said. You can buy different packages at Razbam's. The Skyraider packages are awesome, but they have a nice Prowler too!

Taking off for a Ho Chi Minh trail mission, planting mics.

I flew in one as a passenger in 1994 (Maybe Airlines)...... DAMN that was a nasty bird. It gave a new meaning to STOL take off and landing and it was rattling like a bucket of bolts. I really liked the place where they put the little boys room! Muesli
