On this its probably a mix between enjoying what you do and bringing home the bacon... Some of the Freeware I have for both the Strikefighters series and FSX I would happily have paid for simply because of the time and effort involved by all and to be honest some of the payware I have bought I wished I hadn't because 2 days later I found the same as Freeware and it was a lot better...

Yes that is a nice Scooter to run around in... I have it somewhere as well... be aware this will take me sometime as its the first mod I am going to do... Your right though the A-4M is sorely missing...

4.04 was the last one if I remember rightly. Best idea is to patch it up as Jedi advised...

Good Jet I have that one as well... Okay there is Beale AFB on Avsim but it looks like its a Buyware http://www.avsim.com/pages/0808/Alphasim2/Beale.htm Above is a review. Its the only one I can find as I have quiet a lot of addon's for FSX. Hope this helps.

Speak English old boy there's a good fellow thats too close to gibberish for my liking...

Okay you say you cannot start what do you mean? Do you get any error messages or does it do nothing at all? And is it Pacific Fighters ? Best advice is un-install reboot your PC re-install and try again...

Aaaahh the sound of 4 Rolls Royce Merlins what a sound... its between that and 4 Rolls Royce Olympus engines in Full Reheat on take off (Yeah I know they gave them a fancy name) the sound we don't hear anymore unless you prefer it non-reheat and now we are talking that Avro Vulcan sound is something special...

Me I tried Soccer sorry Football... Tried Aussie Rules Football also tried American Football with the US Marine's and finally Rugby... this is one sport where in Rugby Union I was a winger (weighing in at a maxium weight of all 11 stone but I had the speed of a fighter jet but the turning circle of a small country) and then in League they through me into the centre silly idea... Note the 11 stone has now expanded to around 14 stone...

Thanks for that I will most likely release a Mod for the A-4F first ini files so you get the avionics weapons first and uprated engine once I have it as near perfect as I can... Release Date 2 weeks...

Was in the Falklands about 11 years ago at Mount Kent and had the pleasure of seeing them everyday coming over below around the place... Saying that though going for a spin around said Islands in said swinger was even better...

Now that was a funny song and so true of the Underground thankfully when I lived in London I used the bike to get to the office... was there in 25 minutes the missus went by train and tube and it took her an hour and a half and she only went 2 stops further on...

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...

I have Pics and indicators of the dials etc for the cockpit plus the data on the Airpass AI if that would help at all...

Well Widow old Chap one must try but at present no bike as I am looking at buying a new one as my 600 was killed by the French... after surviving a trip over the Alps and into southern Italy... as to the Warm Summer evenings I will settle for cool spring mornings... and evenings and anytime when there is no thick snow on the ground... And to Buell going I am seriously annoyed as it was the only Harley I might have ridden...

But there's no :- Golden Eagle Bald Eagle Sea Eagle

Yup thats a good read I have it somewhere there is also a book before it called Wings of Fury thats also a good read by the same author. They are both on Amazon...

I call it Soccer as it annoys my brother who's errr Football mad... to the point that his car is sprayed in the same blue as his favourite team which is Everton... go figure...

The Important bits I think... I am not afraid of Flying its the take off's and the landing that's what scares me... as my Dad says...

One word Disgusting... A guy comes at you with an Axe and you can't defend yourself... Me I would have made sure the thug wasn't around afterwards to say anything... Thankfully the Jury at a case last week got it right guy defending himself against 2 thugs who broke into his home both armed and he attacked them with a sword he had slicing one of the thugs ear off... After they threatened to kill the family etc etc... Judge wanted him sending down but the Jury returned in 15 minutes to clear him

Isn't that how Alb's should take off and Land ??? Very funny though

I would like to see the Shorts Seaplane as well or its German counterpart as it would add a new dimension to an already outstanding experience... Failing that a German 2 Seater preferably one that can fight back so as not to make it a moving target... dont ask me which one though...

There is that option of course as soon as I have my multiplayer sorted out of course... but I think old Widowmaker would shred my poor plane as he does have a lot more experience in OFF than my measly 4 months...

From what I understand they might even play better...

ooooh your going straight to hell on that one there... to paraphrase Robin Williams...

Well Flying LT Mark "Pirate" Andrews is still busy causing the Red Menace problems Last 2 Sorties :- Sortie one was an Escort run 4 F-3's Full Weapons and Tanks Took off nicely and was airborne faster than a fast thing with go fast stripes (Well thats what the boss lady said anyway) Picked up our charges Anvil Flight 8 Jaguars about 40 miles out their target was an airfield 100 miles behind enemy lines beats running Intercepts all day long... Cruised in over the lines checked in with Sentry 1 and carried on cruising looking to do some brusing nothing showing 75 miles later about to turn of the IP point and 2 Mig-29's appeared out of nowhere Tanks dropped and turned to meet them got a sidewinder into one at 2 miles but his wingie was intent on the Jaguars and he sped after them at 600knots so popped into full burner and was after him closing the range rapidly as I was doing over 800knots (The old Chief Tech has really tweaked this bird to the max)... got within 2 miles of the Mig and fired my second winder of the day took what I thought was a scratch hit as one of his burners went out the other was still on full and then his Vertical tail on the Starboard side peeled off the airframe and goodnight was all she said he went into a flat spin and impacted the ground shortly afterwards. Caught up with the Jag's just after they had finished their working over of the airbase. Sentry one advised that there where a bunch of Mig-21's to the north so me and my Wingman went after them as I sent 3 and 4 home pointless them hanging about. Short story 5 Mig-21's later and it was home in time for elevenses.... Sortie 2 Basic in and out intercept 2 F-3's Full load out and tanks Launched and head to the Fulda Gap Sentry 30 advised that 2 low level joker's where after the tanks that where holding the area. Picked them up at 500ft and nailed number 2 with a winder his number 1 though was interesting as he fought like a demon but he was always going to lose as I had seen it all before from the Su-22's one sidewinder later and down he fell... HEaded home for tea and crumpets and 2 Mig-21's come up to fight damn they where hard to spot with the camo job they have... anyway that ended the only way it could do 2 splashed with a sidewinder and number 1 with the Miss 27mm Mauser...
