  1. what did you expect, airshow season? it aint always supposed to be easy i'll count that as a shack.....
  2. will you be including NAS Glenview, Midway Airport and O'Hare International? all airfields in Chicago, O'Hare and Glenview with military presence as well. really great if you add Miegs Field. now closed, it was a small field on a peninsula (almost an island though) in Lake Michigan. mostly light civil aviation, it was (barely) capable of landing a 727 though so medium cargo and fighters should be no prob
  3. ok, so i'll quit clogging up the overall screenie thread with F-16s. over 4600 built. 43 years of service. over major 25 operators. there should be some variety here i'll start this show off mile high...
  4. Viper Pit

    Sumter County King pt 1
  5. in the holding pattern for the new home field from Gepard "hey look, im Tom Cruise! im inverted!" "DAMMIT CARL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "say again American 1740?" "i said gawddammed snot nosed jet jockeys!"
  6. Intercept!

    this actually impacted me directly, although in a minor way in 2001, the Army went to the black beret for all Soldiers. but it was discovered that many of the ones purchased for issue were sourced from China. That obviously wouldnt do after this incident. Alternate sources were found, but there wasnt enough for every Soldier to have one on 14 Jun 2001. amongst the Soldiers that had to wait were us in USAEUR (Germany). we did not get our berets until February the next year. all because of an overly aggresive Chinese jet pilot! -------------- ok end of obscure history lesson, heres a screenie
  7. So the challange here is to NOT shoot the other aircraft down. Like an airliner in distress, or a nosy Bear peeking at the battle group. to kick off, Eastern seems to be really lost and Nordo. hopefully they get the hint to follow back to SEATAC...
  8. generally town, or township if its really small im sure theres a few communities that call themselves villages. but none i've heard of (and ive been in 33 states for more than just passing thru an airport) and they would be the rarity
  9. Intercept!

    "UTA 993, we've looked you over and see nothing else wrong at this time. Proceed to Tampa, we got the trucks out and waiting for you"
  10. Humpday Heavies

    i dunno. i see no escorts, and a fire coming out the middle of the deck like that means damage bad enough to possible knock weapon systems off line (ie reactor issues). but a Badger isnt the best for that all the same.. --------------- UTA 993 on approach for Tampa International....
  11. in the spirit of the other themed days, post your big ones, your jumbos, anything bigger than a fighter sized breadbox. Wednesdays only (sorry bout starting so late, was at work until now
  12. that almost looks like when an Intruder shot its nav half way out are there any entries in the cockpit ini that need adjusting (presuming you've played with the data ini)? are you working in the right folder? not being mean, it happens and can take awhile to figure out
  13. then why not some SABENA jets on the ramp in back mando screenie, or why is it so hard to find good pics of regular units from teh mid 80s? Desert Storm is not the end of be all of fighter markings......
  14. 70 actually https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Hancock_(CV-19)
  15. come sail away, come sail away come sail away with me......
  16. pilot lod should be in the readme for his Duece, i dont know who did it off top of my head but if the pilot was also was veltro, retired unfortuneatly means retired. not coming back after healing
  17. CAt 3 is rather interesting. does it follow through to the end of Cat 1 (presumed to be left front)?
  18. v2k is pretty much retired from modding due to health what we got from him is what we got
  19. following the leader oh the sights you can see in SF2 world how many types can you spot? requisite air field looking up shot
  20. Transitions

    1987: the 307th TFTS gives up its last F-4D, reverting back to being the 307th TFS and completing the 31st's transition back to a TFW with F-16A/B Block 15s
  21. Game rules for this thread: Same Unit, different aircraft. Major changes preferred, although in some cases like KC-135, F-4D to E, and C-130 different models could be ok. and you gotta name the unit and rough year of the change. to kick off, the 120th Fighter Squadron, Colorado Air National Guard. A-7D to F-16C, 1992
  22. Homestead '87 how many Phantoms are required in each post exactly?
