  1. Be aware when using ARM's that if you have 2 sites operating close together e.g. a Fansong with a Shilka parked next to it your ARM might not hit either... Also I have found that the ARM's go for the nearest emitter...
  2. Now there's a surprise that a Government has cut back on the military... as I am ex RAF I look at it now and its horrifying what the UK Government is doing to the UK Military... As to the US military F-35 cutbacks mean more expense... Problem is that no-one in Western Governments nowadays have been to war and understand the military. They are born and bred to become politicans and have little or no understanding of the military. My opinion for what its worth is that you must serve in the military and not in a rear area before you become eligible to become a politican as the Armed Forces are the most misunderstood by the Politico's as they are usually not there everyday like police public health etc... And that the last time the militaries where run down we had a World War... Rant over apologies in advance...
  3. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8407825.stm Took to the Air...
  4. I would say that its old Manfred von Richthofen's old chap...
  5. Can't wait...
  6. Happy Birthday old Chap and all that... So you will be a washout tomorrow then after the old hen stuff..
  7. And here's me on a recent biking trip round Italy...
  8. I know I said I would stay quiet but has there been any progress on the old Banana Bomber ???
  9. Why thanks flying Recon over Vietnam is now much more fun... getting chased this way and that with flak is real fun too... Drat no recon in the campaigns oh well time to do some modding... must remember to save the originals first...
  10. And dont forget the Port old Chap... one needs a good port with game... be vewy vewy quiet I be hunting Hinds...
  11. But the good news is that you would only need one to get wrecked...
  12. I get that as well and I assumed that it is the aeroplane trying to dispense itself over a large area for you going to fast... so I try not to do it too often... as I have enough trouble keeping a pilot alive for more than 5 hours without him learning to fly without the aid of an aeroplane or having the new fangled backup device called a Parachute... Though some aeroplanes want to scatter their numerous nuts and bolts all over even when doing something as simple as start the engine...

    While wandering the net I found this...
  15. Genius of the highest order...
  16. Hell I hope they get off... most likely the guy punched himself and then reported it. Hell I got a rocket once from my boss when in Bosnia for disarming a guy of his AK-47 after he loosed of the magazine while in his other hand he had a bottle of the local moonshine and he was worse for wear... It would have been easier to shoot the guy... but no I took the rifle stripped it and scattered the parts around the area. He then reported to the UN guys and they told my boss to give me a rocket and not to do it again!!! The guy was drunk as a skunk and was wandering around with a loaded weapon. What the higher up behind the desk (Not my Boss) couldn't comprehend was it could have ended a lot differently ie I could have been shot or I could have shot him...
  17. I am more interested in how an old BE can carry the Booze and the torpedo... That booze must be the lightweight stuff... Bit like this sketch :- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9cTXl5ApEk
  18. To all you US colonials have a good day....
  19. No Thats the bloke out of 300 doing the "THIS IS SPARTA!!!!" Line
  20. Yeah I had the same frustrating issues in Bosnia and Kosovo... the problem is if you are seen by the press to fire you get crucified and vilified and your the one in the wrong... They shoot at civilians and not the troops and theres jack you can do about it... Get rid of the CNN effect riding shotgun on everything that the military are doing and let them get on with it on the front line and life gets easier for the troops on the ground. Hell if it was me if they had any ranged weapons within reach pop a round in them... But that leads the way to them claiming compensation etc... I could rant about this for weeks months so I will stop now... ROE created by politico's to make it look like its not a war and that its just us helping out the people shooting at us
  21. Whats a wife...??? and the poor cat has to look after itself lucky that it can use a tin opener... and is a good co pilot/gunner
  22. Take the roasted hornets and de-sting them get a large pot of honey and start dipping and eating them hmmm... Well it works with Locust's...
  23. Morris the 2 weeks response is a hidden joke in IT development everything is always 2 weeks away including the next version of Windows... Until one of the Devs comes on and gives the date... we are all as much in the dark as you mate... I have only had the game 3 weeks and I cant wait... and I am still finding new stuff every day...
