Afternoon Gentlemen, I've been poking around the Forum to see if anyone else has been having problems trapping with the Scooter and sofar Zilch. The problem is that when I hit the wires I flip over, do the funky chicken and explode. All four models (A-4B, C, E, and F) Anybody else? Fix? Thanks Guys (and Girls)..... Smokey

I just took the A-4A for a spin around the pattern....Same thing....Hit the wires and it does the funky chicken and explodes....

I ran the A-4A data ini and the A-4B data ini thru exam diff....It kinda looks like the A-4B (and by default, the rest of the 'stock' A-4's) didn't get the new patch 'makeover.' Beauty job on the A-4A by suhsjake btw. maybe TK forgot to click and drag a few file to the patch? (JOKING....TOTALLY JOKING). later

Thanks for running with this guys....Haven't been around for a bit. Great work!

OOOHHH!!!! GET PHOTOS!

I've noticed this in mainly the Armed Reco mission in WOV... I think it has something to do with timings to waypoints. I guess if you blast out to the area @ 600kts you'll have to wait a while. later

OK, another interesting bit....I got a bit rushed trying out different landing gear settings and decided to go straight in and not follow the angle....TaDa! landed with a few bouces. I'm gonna check the data ini's for the carriers.

Tee Heee

He's only the BEST actor of the 20th century! "Oh that's right, Private Pyle, don't make any fu***** effort to get to the top of the fu***** obstacle. If God would have wanted you up there he would have miracled your ass up there by now, wouldn't he?"

Fantastic!

Hey Everybody, I took in the Abbotsford Airshow in early august and thought I'd share some pics....so here goes: B-52 Landing gear well Bomb bay I for one wouldn't want to be using that little door... C-17 Globemaster C-130H Pylon with CM dispenser C-130J (I swear, it still had 'new car smell') KC-10 Here's some Skyraider love for you... Superbugs RCMP Eurocopter Challenger CF-18 Radar nosed Dash-8 Harvard Twin Otter SAR Sea King F-15C HH/MH-65C Aurora Hey! I did this one in FSX Griffin in tight turn at low level, show center CF-18 leaving in a hurry HH/MH-65C doing a SAR demo US Navy Heritage Flight Thunderbirds And finally....the latest PDP (that's poop dispensing pod)...My son Hudson, a week old tomorrow. All in all I love a good airshow, but I think Cold Lake 2004 was WAY better. The best part about Abbotsford was that I shelled out for Club seats. Breakfast, Steak lunch and free beer! Hope you enjoyed the pic's

Thanks Guys.

Oh come on?!!?!!! I've been watching that Gong show for I don't know how long and the only solution Gates can come up with is 'none of the above'? The USAF needs new tankers now, not in 10 years. What a bummer.

I saw it about 2 month ago online.... Wow....I mean...Wow.

Yah...he is cute...Makes me wonder if they gave me the right baby... Hey Rambler, Those pics were partially for you....I read in one topic last month that you were bummed about not going, so.... Later

I was perusing the screenshot of the month and read that modders out there wouldn't pass up some reference photos...so here you go if youu want them.... This photos were taken at the Abbotsford airshow in August. Enjoy and I'll try and post the rest of the YXX pic soon. Later.

Got it in one Fastcargo....Lemme see here... (roots around in computer) Between the two engines....

A good thread from SimHQ concerning dispenser locations on various a/c....Read the directions VERY carefully. Chaff/Flare Thread

Hey everybody.... I did some looking online but couldn't find any pictures of an AN/ALE-2 (chaff & flare(?)dispenser). I'm no rivet counter by any stretch of the imagination, but a little bit of historical accuracy is OK. I modified (renamed) the ALE-37 dispenser from the TMF wep pack and retrofitted to all my aircraft that did not benefit from internal chaff/flare dispenser. But, like I said, I want something a little more accurate. Thanks in advance if you got something, no worries if you don't Smokey.

Thanks for the info sir!

Thanks SouthernAP.... I was on that site....your hotlink didn't work... Is it the two drop tank lookin units, or am I still in the dark?

I hear tracing is hard if they don't find all the pieces.....

Great Photos.... Last time I saw the Starfighter(s) was at the Cold Lake Airshow 2 or 3 years ago. Didn't know there was three of them now. Nothing like that sound they make. I'll be flying from Calgary to Abbotsford in August for the show. Only good one in western Canada this year. I'll post a few pics of the superbug.

Yes Please! Get some permissions and post those!

Bah! I still remember the stink Airbus caused when the Canadian Armed Forces chose the C-17..... Airbus: "We can do everything a C-17 can do and better" CAF: "Can you deliver them within 24 months?" Airbus: "Welllllll" We've got our four already and they've been to Afganistan and back probably a dozen times by now. I think the only problem the armed forces has is that they can't get 4 more. That Airbus POS still hasn't got off the ground. Sorry for the Airbus hatred...I've had one too many rides in the A319
