Spinners

I only downloaded WOV last night and flew two missions (Thunderchief and Corsair 2) but thought it was excellent. I'd still put WOE ahead of it though as it has the Hunter FGA.9 in tactical camo and markings . After a modest upgrade of my PC I'm really enjoying these little gems and can't wait for WOI - a real interest of mine.

I had mine off ebay for about 6 euros. WoV is quite rare on ebay so I'm downloading it as we speak (type).

Buccaneer - mega underrated and should still be in production! Canberra - it might have been a modest performer but it was just so graceful. Concorde - simply stunning. A visual tour de force. Hurricane - it and it's pilot's were the real heroes of Britain's finest hour. F-111 - but must be long-span C's or FB's! Foxbat - all angular and jagged but with added 'Warp 9'! F-4 Phantom - my first love. The bg-assed RAF versions are cool but I love the F-4E too! Spitfires - especially those with symetrical radiators and without bubble hoods (PR19 in particular). Tempest - especially the Mk.V with invasion stripes. TSR.2 - it just wasn't to be though. Vigilante - whould have been an interceptor in my 'what-if' world. Vulcan - iconic in it's home country.* * and it must have impressed some USAF fighter jocks looking up at it when it sailed into the USA during a NORAD exercise

When I was about 13 I built an Airfix F-4B and decided to weight the nose by filling it with glue... by the morning the front end had melted off.

I've been playing IL-2 (Woolworths £3.74), Strike Fighters Gold (ebay £2.99 inc. postage) and today I've bought LOMAC (also in Woolworths for £3.74). How much fun can you have for pennies!!! My PC's a bit old now so Strike Fighters Gold does it for me as jets are more my thing and I really must get WOV and WOE especially at these prices. I've stuck LOMAC on my laptop with Vista (my PC won't run it) and I'm having teething problems but I'll give it time as I've only had it a couple of hours! I think I'll get my PC upgraded and stick LOMAC on that. Oh. BTW I just love the mods and skins thing! Not long after buying SFG I was in a Thunderbirds F-4E! (Thanks Streakeagle).

An option to have the Hawker Tempest in the BoB! In the book 'Typhoon and Tempest at War' Hawker's test pilot Roland Beaumont considered just how good the Tempest would have been in the BoB. (I know, I just want to have it easy).
