  1. Sweet! Good work!
  2. Who did the skin? It's blazing.
  3. Almost certainly the F-4 Phantom II. I prefer the era and it just carries so much! You can clobber your target, take out a runway, drill holes in the fuel tanks and then go after the MiGs! Mind you, I revisited the F-111 recently and with 24 Snakeyes plus a couple on board you can rack up a good score and are just about untouchable at low-level.
  4. Well done everyone. I've always liked the look of the Thunderflash since building an Italeri 1/72 scale model 20 years ago.
  5. Cor blimey! I've been away from my PC for just 36 hours and we get this and the Mirage 2000! Just lately, it's been like the golden age of Strike Fighters. Anyway, big thanks to everyone concerned with this project.
  6. That's a bang-up job there Florian! Many thanks!
  7. Diolch yn fawr!
  8. This will be a valuable addition. Thanks in advance to the GMG!

View File FA-18F Super Hornet - VF-1 Falcões FA-18F Super Hornet - VF-1 Falcões, Aviação Naval Brasileira This is a 'what if' skin for the Insky FA-18F to place it in service with the famous VF-1 Falcões of the Aviação Naval Brasileira. INSTRUCTIONS This is not a complete aircraft so you must have the Insky FA-18F. This is just a skin for you to drop in to your FA-18F and fly. 1. From the SKIN folder drag and drop the VF-1_BN folder into your FA-18F folder. The decals are inside the skin folder - nothing else is required. CREDITS Thanks to TK for a great little game/sim. Special thanks to 101tfs and Erwin_Hans for creating the first Super Hornet to land on Planet Strike Fighters in July 2008. And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

  10. No problem! I found a nice little article on the existing Falcões here; http://www.airsceneuk.org.uk/hangar/2003/brazil/saopedro.htm
  11. One of my all-time favourite aircraft!

  13. Did these ever get a NATO codename?
  14. I caught up with 'Britain from Above' last night and it was a fantastic programme and very nice of Andrew Marr to mention you by name as well!
  15. And me! Although, in a funny way, I'm quite happy with SFG/WOV/WOE and the Israel2 and Malvinas terrains. Things are so interchangeable!
  16. I know that the 3D modelling thing is beyond me but I downloaded 'Gimp' and 'Irfanview' and have loads of fun doing simple skins and decals.

  20. No problem and we'll have a 1st escuadrillo F-8E here soon! (Thanks Gocad)
  21. Thanks for the prompt reply! It's not often we see you post here so, I'm sure I speak for everyone, your work is superb!
  22. Any news on the 'winder rails?

  23. So what do you fly?

    Spinners replied to serverandenforcer's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion

    I love the variety but if I had to choose then I'd go the Phantom F-4E with the 'Thud' a close second. Mission wise, I prefer STRIKE as you inevitably get a chance to dogfight as well!
  24. Not quite a D-31 but here is a great source of D-25 stuff... http://www.digitalstrike.eu/index.html
