  1. PFunk, I will run a test when I get home tonight, to answer this question once and for all. All one needs to do is to setup a 1 v 1 mission against an aircraft that is equipped with jamming pods, set to an "artificially" high power setting. If one cannot maintain radar lock on that target, then AI jamming pods work.
  2. Happy Birthday Enoc!

    Happy Birthday!
  3. Russ, here you go. I hope this helps. SovietSilver1.rar
  4. Russ, I have some 1024x skins that I can send you when I get home later on tonight, and you should be able to make up some templates from them. They were made by Volksjager over 10 years ago.
  5. The Most Fun Car Chase Scene Ever

    And probably the longest, was the "Eleanor" chase from the original gone in 60-seconds, filmed back in 1974. I've not seen the flick in quite a few years, and watching these videos was a pleasant surprise. Enjoy! PART 1 PART 2 PART 3
  6. What cockpit detail level are you running at? The stick disappears when cockpit detail is set below "high".
  7. It's a girl!

    Congrats!
  8. Fuel Prices, back in the "day"

    Saw these in our local newspaper's website, and thought I'd share. 1962, Haddonfield, NJ: 1969, Park Ridge, NJ: Back when I started driving (in the Autumn of 1975), regular fuel sold for around 50 cents, and premium was about .10 more. By 1978, prices had risen another 10 cents, and a year later (Summer of 1979), they exceeded $1.00 per US gallon for the first time.

    The true story behind the Bulitt chase scene: http://hottr6.com/triumph/BULLITT.html
  10. Nice.... Though the Spey-powered Phantoms had reddish afterburner flames.
  11. The Most Fun Car Chase Scene Ever

    Another "meaningful" coincidence; The actor/stunt driver of the Pontiac Bonneville in the Seven Ups, was Bill Hickman, who was also the stunt driver/actor who drove the Charger R/T in Bulitt, and also drove the Pontiac Le Mans in The French Connection (as a stunt driver). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Hickman The Bullit chase was sort of redone for the last episode of the Alcatraz series;
  12. The Most Fun Car Chase Scene Ever

    The Bullitt chase scene was not intended to be "fun".
  13. The sound pack had no instructions regarding this? I will post instructions when I get home from work tonight.
  14. Fuel Prices, back in the "day"

    My truck returns between 8-9 KM/Liter commuting back and forth from work. My daily round trip commute is 100 miles/160 KM.
  15. Fuel Prices, back in the "day"

    A base Mustang has a 3.7 Liter, 305 HP V6 and retails for $23,800 US. To get a V8 in that car, one needs to upgrade to the Mustang GT (5 liter V8, 435 HP), which retails for $32,300 here in the 'States. Both cars have a highway MPG figure that allows them to avoid the one-time gas guzzler tax (they must exceed 22.5 MPG)
  16. Fuel Prices, back in the "day"

    That would be bad for me, as I have a 5.2 liter engine in my truck.
  17. Brrrrrrrrrrr!

    Maybe it's just me, but.....
  18. Fuel Prices, back in the "day"

    So an old Ford ad from that very year. It stated that one could finance a '55 Ford for $55 down and payments would be $55 per month for three years.
  19. The effect is either always on, or is turned off by switching at AB, or cutting the engine off. It is possible to add additional (fake) engines and link effects to them, but one is still limited to the parameters that I mentioned before.
  20. Fuel Prices, back in the "day"

    There's no annual tax on vehicles in my state. You pay state sales tax when you first purchase it, and that's it. Some will argue that the annual vehicle registration is actually a tax (and I will not argue with that). I pay $71.50 per year to register my truck. Here is the break down of registration fees in NJ: 1 1970 or older Under 2,700 lbs. $35.50 2 1970 or older 2,700 lbs. - 3,800 lbs. $44.50 3 1970 or older Over 3,800 lbs. $65.50 4 1971 – 1979 Under 2,700 lbs. $38.50 5 1971 – 1979 2,700 lbs. - 3,800 lbs. $49.50 6 1971 – 1979 Over 3,800 lbs. $72.50 7 older than 2 years Under 3,500 lbs. $46.50 7 within 2 years Under 3,500 lbs. $59.00 8 older than 2 years Over 3,500 lbs. $71.50 8 within 2 years Over 3,500 lbs. $84.00 9 older than 2 years Commuter Van** $71.50 9 within 2 years Commuter Van** $84.00
  21. Fuel Prices, back in the "day"

    I just paid $1.89 US per gallon. That translates to .44 Euros per liter.

    I Don't I wish! According to the NJ Star Ledger, that image was taken in 1969.
