That was awesome! Good use of the Stealth dialouge. Never would have expected that.

Those Eagles look stunning! There isn't any Massachusetts Air Guard love in that package, is there?

The Formosa terrain may be helpful for an Ace Combat 04 mod. You've got friendly, ISAF controlled, North Point (Taiwan) and mainland, Erusean occupied, Usea (China) in it. Maybe the Danger Bearing Straits terrain could do for an Ace Combat 5 mod? I think Major Lee had a version that was mostly grass on his site before it went down. Maybe it's here? One of those islands has to work as Sand Island.

Those shots of Chernobyl and Pripyat continue to remain creepy.

There are tons of B-52 mods now Nice to have you back, by the way!

What kind of Hyundai you looking for? My mom's got a 2003 Santa Fe that just broke the 100,000 marker. Only recently has had some problems. Minor and cheap repairs though. Although, I presume you're looking for a mid size sedan? Aren't Minis outrageously expensive?

Those poor Phantoms! I'm going to have nightmares becuase of these pictures I know it!

You don't intend on hurting anyone with those planes, do you Dave?

S!

Happy birthday Soulfreak!

I suddenly have an urge to go glass Paran in a B-52. I doubt it has nothing to do with the awesome B-52 screenies on this page.

Couldn't you just modify the A-50 for those roles?

Thanks for the tips! Although I'm not sure what to make of this: Especially living in New England, where both of those could happen on the same day in an hour's notice.

.22s or not, atleast you got to. We have no official marksman course that I know of. At our encampments (CAP's equivilance to Basic Training) cadets may get to use the FATS (Firearms Training Simulator), although that's just to have fun (of which I had to much of with the M249). My squadron had a bivouac (spelt wrong?) where a senior member (adult CAP members) brought along several of his personal firearms (AK-47, AR15) and we went to a range and each got to fire off five rounds of each rifle, along with some rifles the range had.

I knew I was doing the Hero Shot pose wrong!

The courses are selective here too. Review board, then Wing has to choose X number of canidates, then it gets sent down to National at Maxwell, where they make the final decision. But atleast you don't have to pay. Do you guys get anysort of firearms training? We don't.

Seriously? That sucks. I guess I should stop complaining about some of CAP's problems. Civil Air Patrol offers glider and powered flight academies. I haven't done either becuase it's too expensive. We also get five orientation flights in Cessna 172s and 182s, where we have the airplane, minus takeoff, landing (depending on if your pilot is cool or not ) and throttle. And I guess if you want to mention getting near powered aircraft, CAP also offers flight marshall training, at the Oshkosh Airshow, to Cadets.

I thought he hitched a trailer to the back of a T-38?

I picked up an Academy F-104G last week. Never really have put much effort in building a model, but I figure I have to start somewhere. So, what are tips to making a model really look good? Should I build it first or paint the pieces first? The decals inculded are of Marinefliegergeschwader 2 and I'm curious as to whether the Marineflieger Starfighters wore any schemes other than the gray on top/white on bottom.

Isn't there a Canadian Air Cadets Program or something similar to that?

Thanks guys. I had a great time. The instructors were former or current USAF/USAFR IPs. They were all awesome. Maybe FastCargo (Kowalski) knows some of them. Our flights were named after former flights from a FTS at Moody or Vance? Skitter, Hacker, Gombey and Boysan. I was in Skitter Flight. My class was 09-01.

S!

LOL. I actually had to cross check and make sure I didn't actually say that

As promised, here are the pictures from Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training Familiarization Course. I'll start with some aircraft. And last for now, the Hero Shot.

That's what they mean when they say that? I thought it meant "Hey dummy, I'm joker here. Send me home!"
