I got stuck in traffic for five hours en route to the airshow right by the runway.. Made it in time for the 102nd's (104th's) F-15C demonstration. I really just went to see the Super Sabre. I'll upload the pictures tomorrow.

After the Cuban Missile Crisis and countless Bear intercepts, I don't think an exercise would be as startling for Americans as they are for the Chinese.

May the crew rest in peace

Very nice shots. Is that a Marksman AAA? What is it mounted on?

Come on...you know you want it......
Viggen replied to Sundowner's topic in Military and General Aviation
I do want it. A lot. I also want the Bucc forward fuselage on there -

Hanna Reitsch. Same lady who flew a Storch into Berlin during the Soviet assault. -

This looks great, Veltro! How high up have you gotten it? -
Teen Series Fighters
Viggen replied to Slartibartfast's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The Eagle has my vote. If the incredible kill ratio isn't enough of a reason, then looks and performance are. Sure, maybe the build quality of some airframes isn't up to par and the Pratt and Whitney F100 engine has been troublesome at times, but this doesn't prevent it from being as hard as nails. When it comes to actual combat records and not just egos, training, and talk, the F-15 comes out on top in the air to air role for the Teen Series. The Strike Eagle is no slouch in air to ground either. Edit: I also have a slight bias, as the F-15 is the poster child of the Massachusetts Air National Guard, which was also the first Guard to receive F-15s. -

I must have missed the Kfir TC's release. Thanks for the update Canadair! -

Wow that is a really pretty airplane. No Nesher Ts in the works but I think there are some Kfir TCs being developed IIRC. -
Waypoint problems with Afghanistan terrain
Viggen posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I finally got around to installing the Afghanistan terrain. Went to go fly a SEAD mission and once I reached waypoint two hit the autopilot by mistake. I noticed that suddenly the aircraft turned back towards Jalalabad Air Base. The map showed all the waypoints, as though I never took off. It's happened several times now. Here's a picture of the map. Also, when I started the mission I was in the middle of the runway and my wingman's plane was inside of mine. Happens only on this terrain. And is there a way to prevent the AI flights from smashing into the side of the mountain? Can't tell you how many Tornados I've watched smash into the mountainside. -
I thought they got a couple of trapped out F/A-18Cs? Here are the Blue's most recently retired F/A-18Bs. I would have taken a better shot but my battery died moments after!

Gepard, I'm using the terrain in WOI. I'll change the airfield type and report back -
I think the mission opened up the eyes of the average teenage player and gave them a better sense of what terrorism is and what a terrorist is. The game's intended audience was mature adults and older teenagers. You can kill hundreds of civilians and police officers in Grand Theft Auto IV but that doesn't get censored. What was the point of censoring No Russian? EDIT: For those who haven't read about the controversies of "No Russian", read here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Russian#.22No_Russian.22_Mission
