BB Flashback isn't bad either and it's also for free if you're not very picky about exportation...
-
Also interested in the remake of the original with the Unreal engine... That will also kick ass and chew bubble gum of nostalgia!!!
-
Yeah but they fail to mention Rhapsody...
-
Nope not really but I'll hoist a glass anyways! Btw, I didn't quite get the video - was that one drone being piloted by one and the other controlled the camera, or is it one drone per pilot station?

Where you got hit by the... incest scandal of Josef Fritzl! Scandal, scandal everywhere! There are almost more scandals than sandals!!!

Cruise ship battles 100 knot winds and 40 feet waves
TX3RN0BILL replied to Fubar512's topic in The Pub
A cruise down there in a submarine should be peaceful enough... -
False, I never had lice, especially lice begging for attention. The person below me is also old enough to prefer skipping Xmas and all its stress, and go directly to the New-Years-Eve party!!!

Why do you say that? As long as it's long and hard on the outside - she probably prefers it that way - she wouldn't want to give birth to a cyborg I bet...

Tears as last Harrier jets leave Ark Royal
TX3RN0BILL replied to MigBuster's topic in Military and General Aviation
I thought the F-35 wasn't going to go forward... not the smartest way to go with it - since Queen Elizabeth is going to be a large carrier class, they should try to make a navalized Typhoon - would create even more Euro-jobs... And the problem with retiring these before the successors are available is that England won't even be able to offer the Falklands to the Argentinians for sale - since they'll probably be able to take them with their military for free (well, provided there aren't any accidents and nobody wants to play a hero that is)... -
One more reason to be surprised as to why no ready answers were given. Heck, call it an "awareness-test" or whatever - answers should have been delivered promptly (and I'm betting the military tracks civilian flights just as well or better than the civilian ATC)... Makes those who's task it is to defend the country by being always vigilant look like they're sleeping on the job when they give a "I don't know" answer to such an apparently simply answerable question... UNLESS, it really wasn't what everybody is lead to believe it was, and hoped that someone came with the right kind of smokescreen (pun intended) that everybody could swallow without choking on it... *gets tinfoilhat out of the closet*
-
What I was implying was that the contrails are at position X in the map, it should really be just a question of checking the flight path data from radar screens/plotters - I mean, I admit I don't work in the "air industry" but I guess that ATC has some sort of machinery that keeps track of flights - well, at least civilian ones so it would just be a question of going to the back logs and checking: What plane went through that place at that time - simple as that. Or don't they have that?
-
If this really was just contrails from a commercial plane on a scheduled flight then this must be the biggest fail of the FAA and the U.S. military for not being able to say so right away - and given the high-tech nature of the U.S. I'm not convinced they didn't know or would be able to say right away what it was if it was just a harmless civilian plane (I bet the USAF watches civilian planes carefully ever after the 9-11 attacks). I say baloney!!! It was something else.

If the GAU-8 has the force to slow the forward momentum of the 'hog in flight during an extended firing run, I wonder how fast a Beetle could go with the GAU-8 mounted facing backwards and firing away?
-
Do they also read "I voted (party xyz) so don't blame me it's not my fault!" too? I remember seeing such stickers but in Germany...

Happy B-days!!!

And to think my dad ran through Europe and Japan with just a steel bucket on his head...
TX3RN0BILL replied to Zurawski's topic in The Pub
Finally someone came up with a good use for the iPod... J/k, I also own one and I'm glad someone else is taking his out to the front lines... Stay safe out there!!! -
'Top Gun 2' in development, with star Tom Cruise reportedly set to return Supposedly a new movie portraying the end of the fighter-pilot era to be replaced by either RPVs or AI-controlled aircraft... who knows...

Saudi F-15SA deal details released
TX3RN0BILL replied to Atreides's topic in Military and General Aviation
So what they're doing is giving the U.S. money for hardware that possibly the U.S. military - either openly or covertly - will be using in the war against Iran (since the saudis don't have enough people to make use of their own stuff)? Talk about a forward deployment of military hardware, now that they're pulling out of the "hot zones" of the area (Iraq)... AND with a financial benefit for the U.S. in the mean time!!! That's what I call a smart move from the U.S.! -
My guess is they want to do something similar story-wise to Stealth, or something... Maybe they'll throw in planes being not controlled by AI but overtaken by h4xx0r terrorists or something with the piloted fighters saving the day again... Meh, no matter what, as long as it displays only newly-shot aerial footage, I'm 100% in favor!
-
Well, let's just hope they fix it soon, would be a shame to kill innocents and let the bad guys get away just because of some faulty code... Couldn't they just patch it up or hasn't enough time passed for the corrections to be ready to be implemented?

One of the best jet fighter films Ive ever seen
TX3RN0BILL replied to MigBuster's topic in Military and General Aviation
Well, kudos for having their own air footage and not stolen from other films. Don't know if the smoke trail is a must with the phantoms but at least the one that was damaged should have had smoke trailing for the effect... Also, good that they show their bombing isn't 100% accurate and I loved the part where the iraqi twisted his shirt and then put it to dry on the barb wire... A fail from whoever posted the video though, those weren't cluster bombs AFAIK, what I saw was carpet bombing... -
