Hullo? Whut? Ya don't say. I've been wondering, and questioning, for years on this subject. Do tell...

That B1-R(d) is B-E-A-yewtiful!

That's a Rog, load toad on the F-111 when it was the 431st Test and Evaluation Squadron (431TES). They shut down the squadron on the day I got out, in Jul 1992. Both McGuire and Bong were in the squadron back in `43. A bit before my time, but cool, nonetheless...

SimHQ has never been a stellar example of the flight sim community in it's best decorum, IMHO. There have been odd flare-ups hereabouts, but I have seen some serious slop sloshed around over there. Again, an opinion, so I hope no SimHQ regulars get all butt-hurt. A notoriously touchy bunch as well...

It is one sweet flying machine! Many thanks...

That is so cool seeing my old, now defunct, squadron, the 431st, on an F-102. Cool crop, Mr. Paulo, Grazie!

Very nicely done. The odd sprinkle of voices from ingame was a nice touch, with no repeats.

Most impressive...

Thanks, Dave. Like I said, not quite back up to speed, took a month off. Will look into it, but I just checked, I do have DX9=TRUE & AdvancedShaders=0, no help. The moving map and the Radar on cause to triangles. It's a shame this patch brought up some LOD issues no one was aware of before, but I suppose it happens...

Concur, I am digging the Dec `09 patch in SF2E. It is creating a weird triangle in the `pit of my F-15E when Radar is on, but the colored chatter is most acceptable. Ah, it is good to be back flying jets, instead of tossing spells and slaying dragons...

Many thanks my friends, and I will be sure to tip one back in your honor Dave! Fifty ain't so tough...

A +1 to that! Not too shabby at all, for an ol' Vark driver... EB-52 MegaFortress anyone? That was the 1st thing that popped into my noggin when I saw the V-tail. Not enough engines so I went into WTF mode...

After a self-imposed hiatus from simming, I haven't flown in close to a month, I come back to this? You guys are still rockin'! Now that I have my once a decade RTS fix satiated, it is back to do some jet junkets. Can't wait to check out the Silent Eagle, this is gonna be GREAT! Many thanks, you wunnerful gentlemen, I am stoked to be back... ___EDIT___ Ooops, sorry, thought I was replying in the Superpack thread. This skin enhances it, so I wasn't hugely off base. I loved a similar skin on the F-4, a couple years back, so I am sure I'll LOVE this one. Many thanks for it, Mr. Fox...

If this one is anywhere near as cool as the YK-2010, it should be a good `un! I am still flying that one, but now have the instructions and files for this, so will fire it up, time willing, when I finish your previous fine endeavour. Many thanks, Baltika! A modern redition would be highly appreciated as well, red side not required here either...

Very cool! I likeses the X-Planes. You can almost see hints of the MBB Firefly in it, if you squint and tilt your head a little...

That in one fan-dam-tastic looking little bugger! I have no idea what it will be good for, except photo-ops, but it must have been a monster to get together. Many thanks, I gots ta have it!

I created my own 2006 Lebanon War 2 scenerio, which is similar, but this looks even cooler! The links to all the items is a pain, but the sure sign of a class act, many thanks. I haven't flown WoX or SF2X in weeks, but may just have to give it a dust off and give this one a go...

Can anyone say Fleet Defender done in a much more pleasant graphical environment? I knew that your could!

Well, I had a nickname in HS and through my USAF career of 14 years, Swiv. It was the short version of Swivel-head, so I have a personal bias...

Colossal Cold War cluster-flop! I'd love to re-create it, those are some exceedingly nice shots...

That is so freaky, it's like an optical illusion! Nope, never done did see nuthin' like ta that...

I've never seen anything like that. Looks like that grey-beard needs a shave! You have, of course, checked for latest drivers, etc. What makes it so odd is that it isn't all over, just the grey bits. I still get cloud tearing, but don't get peeved enough to diligently search a fix. Try changing shadows from high/medium to the other...

Probably a stupid question, but I've done worse. Any plans to do an Israeli "Lavi" version? Another guy and I knocked one up with a couple of skins when the SF:P1 one came out.

I just flushed all add-ons I had previously, well, backed them up actually. Installed this rascal, and had a multi-paragraph whine message typed in here, but when checking specifics, it looks like IzArc did me again. Used 7Z on my 2008 server, then copied them over. Worked a treat! Flew my 2nd mission in a Falcon, always wanted one of them there, just before I came in here to work. Most coolio. Autumn colors make runways hard to see, but that is probably quite correct. And I got pummeled by an S-300. Hard way to find out that those nasty rascals are in there. Very nicely done, gents. This, so far, is how a war in Europe would look...

Wow, I just popped in after being away for a few days and hear this? A tragedy at such a young age. He was, indeed, one of the good guys, and gave selflessly to this community. He will be deeply missed by many. Condolences and prayers to those he left behind...
