Maybe ugly skies but great photos nonetheless... Love the Tripe and the rest...

Hope no one sets the RC controls to the same Freq... but funny alround...

Okay I am a scooter fanatic... Has anyone created an A-4M? If no one has had a go at making an A-4M I am going to attempt to make it be a change from what I do normally as I now have a few hours spare a week and be nice to give something back... Have already modded an A-4F to simulate the A-4M i.e. weapons and avionics which where fairly straightforward... I need some pointers (I will read the read files on Modding) just wanted to know if an older version of 3DMax will work with the files if I remember its from 2003? I have all the data I need for the A-4M and I realise that there is only a possible small amount of work to be done on the visual model e.g. cranked refuel probe and canopy. And that there is the base setup using the A-4's already there... Yes to some it may seem insignificant compared to other creations but we all need to start somewhere... Any advice beside read the files would be greatly accepted... and on that note I will shut up and read the readme's lol...

Great I can now order CFS3 on DVD which will mean I can move my CD's to backup role...

Practice lots of practice its like flying the Harriers... also make sure that the flight model settings are on normal, it is possible but I practiced it a lot before I mastered the VTOL in the Harriers...

Happy Birthday...

First one was interesting... bit overdone with the music though... and the second was funny... (and I am not sure if that was in a good way)...

Okay what PC do I now need to run this???

Happy Birthday old timer...

Must admit I like it here as I am also a SF2 flyer as well and also I enjoy the relaxed atmosphere in here... and as Olham said it feels like home... but I have been here quite awhile compared to some people... anyway back to the bar round on me...

Good luck to you... and may your recovery be a speedy one...

Good luck for your Dad... Dave

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18437000 Today 30 years ago was the end of the Falklands War... to all those who died or were injured on both sides

Nice bikes and summer seems to have finally taken hold here as well... will post pictures of mine when I get some decent photo's with good backgrounds... As to a good first bike depends the Bonneville's are a nice bike (I own a Trumpet as well though not a Bonneville) and because of the speed etc the Bonneville could be a good bike to start with... some may disagree...

Along with a couple of Submarines parking themselves on Rocks outside harbours etc...

Just finishing Red Storm Rising again... now Where's the Movie for it ??? And also just finishing this book as well :- http://www.amazon.co.uk/Soviet-Tactical-Aviation-Gordon-Yefim/dp/1902109236/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1339495090&sr=1-1 about Soviet Tactical Aviation since the end of WW2... as an aside I am now hunting for what to read next...

For me it was when you guys arrived from the outer nether regions of the T'internet... I read the forums for a couple of months and then dived in... and every weekend I watch as one of my new pilots goes and does something stupid and is no more... which reminds me since my rebuild in April I need to reinstall OFF and get back in the air... (Okay I know I shouldn't engage the bad guys over their Airfields but its so tempting, its a bit like) :-

I agree on that FC... I still play the original Deus Ex and I have installed on my Laptop Fallout 1 and 2! I just want an AI that is intelligent as my FPS of choice is the Stalker Series with Mods of course...currently running through STALKER Call of Pribyat with the Misery Mod and damn is it hard even the AI got a nice work over getting Flanked by 2 guys while one is pinning you in place with fire and grenades is fun especially when you have Mosin Nagent 1891 and no armour one hit from an AK and its good night from him and its good night from me... Biggest problem is that most games nowadays seem to be created for the consoles and then ported to PC. The only thing that they cannot do that with is a Flight Sim though Microswipe will give it a damn good go... I still see me playing old games for a long time to come...

I am not saying a Western force as in Iraq Afghanistan etc I meant a multinational co-operative force maybe troops from Eygpt to lead off with other troops for example Saudi or Omani taking the lead on that... keep the westerners out of it let the Arab League run the show its those that want Assad out etc etc... The UN line was meant to be sarcastic in that I once did that stint wearing the Blue Hat in Bosnia and saw how screwed up that got... as to the UN maybe giving it some teeth (Multinational from all militaries across the globe) would allow them access to some of the best troops and best equipment for the situation... Only big issue for that is the amount of Corruption and budget overspend it would require...

I have been following the dealings over there for awhile... but this latest round is getting beyond a joke and proves that the UN is what it is a Toothless relic. They should just raise a UN military from all the worlds militaries and go in there and sort it out...

I still state they should put the new Electric slingers on the pointy end and go F-18's and Hawkeyes... far cheaper oh hang on wait BAe who are building the Carriers now state that it will cost an extra 2 Billion Pounds to do said job which would be just about the cost saving of going Hornets and Hawkeyes... BAe have a lot to answer for in this screw up as well as the UK Government...

Thats my thoughts as well when it comes to a good racing game on the PC... currently running for racing Test Drive Unlimited and Test Drive Unlimited 2 why both simple no bikes in TDU2 grrr...

What no offer of a Goat what are they expecting infidels ??? But yeah rock on on removing him... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfResyFrqlM Well someon had to do it...
