  1. Westfield,MA airshow

    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.
  2. 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.
  3. Tragedy in Romanians skies

    May the crew rest in peace
  4. Duxford........tanks?

    Very nice shots. Is that a Marksman AAA? What is it mounted on?
  5. I do want it. A lot. I also want the Bucc forward fuselage on there
  6. V-1 Beta

    Hanna Reitsch. Same lady who flew a Storch into Berlin during the Soviet assault.
  7. In Memory of 'The Few'

  8. This looks great, Veltro! How high up have you gotten it?
  9. 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.
  10. My Dad's gone...

    My condolences, X RAY.
  11. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1289185/Navigators-gag-amuses-plane-spotters-fighter-jet-races-Snowdonia.html Can we get a WSO or navigator to do this in SF2?
  12. LCA Tejas(navy) is here

    Can't wait to see a picture of its first trap
  13. 234 Years Ago

    Happy Independence Day!
  14. I must have missed the Kfir TC's release. Thanks for the update Canadair!
  15. Wow that is a really pretty airplane. No Nesher Ts in the works but I think there are some Kfir TCs being developed IIRC.
  16. 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.
  17. Blue Angels question?

    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!
  18. Do you have the terrain lined up with the correct terrain .cat?
  19. TF-102? Please finish it! The more two seaters the better!
  20. Now that's airline advertising!

  21. Gepard, I'm using the terrain in WOI. I'll change the airfield type and report back
  22. Korean War

  23. Call of Duty "No Russian"

    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
  24. Eels?

    What happened to the Eels? Who cleaned out the hovercraft?
  25. Eels?

    Worth it.
