so there i was, mindin my own and checking progress on some skins and the @$$holes go and show up...........

ok cool as i have 5 other projects for years end, plus waiting on Dels new Herc. lemme know if you want me to tag back in

ok google and airliner.net photo searches indicate this wont be too bad a beast to mark up other than a couple hundred serials. wing squadron and flight commanders appear to be indicated by stripes like they did back then, so those tie to the serials. black around cockpit should be on skin and just the SAC and unit sashes on the nose. now a few questions @anyone: most of what i see indicates wing markings rather than squadron marking like whats going on with the Lockheed heavy haulers. shall assume to add those to the squadronlist. ini as such? @Dave could use anything reference you got on digits. will use joe baughers site for serials but need to know who flew waht and white anti flash or no and when @Veltro: would you consider at least one RB version? despite the fun of nuking things, for the realism nuts THAT would be cool as they were the ones that actually saw combat IRL

soo i was running quick test flight before bed to get screenies of what to fix tomm. got a glimpse of why i took up the method of doing heavies that i took up now we just need a proper airport to park these colorful birds at......

Fubar, if you annoy the neighbors enough, the police will always sieze your shit back to Dave and on topic, so ya gonna mod the whole airframe or fakepilot different models up?

did you just say you were bored?!?! wow reference first rule of marriage, enlistment, and rule 33 of fight club.............

if they sell it to a country that really does turn it into a casino and bar, they could rename it Yeltsin...............

hey i thought it was supposed to be bitchin betty not bitchin eric. damn new military..................................

big part of why i dont volunteer right now for skins. all nat metal, the Starlifter turned out the best. of course the DC-10 has been a devil skin since i started working with it as a KC-10, but the 767 is a one tile skin too and it didnt turn out bad. just not shiny. but you've seen what i can do with tga everything but the white on the skin my friends so stickers is my strong point back on topic, willing to decal this puppy up at the least. if some interested party has a good reference on units it would help but i am handy enough with a search engine if need be.

its about the deed not the citation and those he saved i'm sure hold him in higher regard than any approving authority for the awards

very true just gotta wait on teh bird to be done first. though i can get the serials prepped and have SAC badges with unit in the KC-10 that can be modified

probably two or three most common (funny thing to say about such a rare bird). correction from earlier, later marks would need the CFM engines as found on Veltro's E-3D. have a conversion of that taking off the radome, ifp and wingtip pods. earlier versions could use the 707. again would just need a fake pilot add on. or would it be easier for a modeller to do a whole bird from scratch?

hey Dave, got a B-47 Units of the Cold War reference handy? i can get markings on that bird, would like to see if anyone else can do the shiny natural metal though before attempting to tackle th skin itself this would be a by wing affair for markings or possibly squadron level. gawd thatll be alot of units.............

could be used for missions sort of like in TSF, as a "the Soviets are attacking the..". but for the amount of usefulness in game, would take the 707 model and fakepilot the antennea and pods on rather than a whole new model

the only New England Patriots i will tolerate..........

there are ways to cheat it out, but usually at the expense of something else. Killerbee and Crazyhorse had done some work in bringing 3 pod setups. without diving too far into it it mostly appears to be a matter of ini editing where the rockets will all sit. alot of attachment points when you get t o the 19 shot pods

open up, and tell us where you're from

only big nitpicks i had was them calling Wardaddy "Top" whe nhe was a SSG (unless i get some more back story there) and when the last batch of Germans are marching, every third one had a Panzerfaust, yet half way through the night they are uncrating their last five. all in all it was a great movie though and i'm waiting impatiently for its release on dvd. and in my experience Crazyhorse most small sections together longer than a month are close like that, and we aint heroic. we just get the job done whatever it is.

this ones givin a mild conniption on and off for a year. she's just about ready now but i assure you no spoilers today

heres to all that've been there and those still on point today. also found this, thought it appropriate to the day given its origins http://www.telegraph.co.uk/history/world-war-one/11221318/Scarred-by-war-Battlefield-landscapes-from-First-World-War-100-years-on.html?frame=endScreen

next up in the paint shop....but how to have Iraqi Airways and Aeroflot on a BLUE airliner? and Veltro, so far this baby is being the easiest of yours to decal. keep eyes peeled about hte Galaxy tho....

Lost a brother today, Sgt Daniel R Marut. He was medically retired after 15 years and 3 tours across the water. Ny wife and i went to visit him and found him dead, while we are awaiting the results of the investigation, he probably passed of a heart attack somewhere around Tuesday. To boot his dog was inside and appears to have damaged half of his face. Really bad bad day in my house, thankfully only my wife and i saw him and not the girls.

This is da , thank you everyone. One of the bitches of this is yhe one who could have related best to finding someone in that state was him himself. Working with his son to settle his affairs but thats gonna prove interesting too as hes out of state right now and wont get here anytime soon likely

This is the wife....thank you all for your condolences.

laziness. its not a good reason but for my counterpoint it is a reason!!!
