i thought this was available already via NF4+. still we would welcome fresh work on any bird in Gen2. will there be skins for the Swedes, Danes and Austrians in the 90's?

john rambo, eat yer heart out!

false! however due to my wife coming home from the hospital i must publicly denounce it outside of Combat Ace. the person below me is old enough to have watched TV on UHF........

i've gotten away from plastic kit myself the last few years (easier to take a laptop and SF2 series with on deployment dontcha know) but i would look into Academy maybe Hasegawa, and go online to look into the dearth of Eastern European start ups that do everything from current Vipers to obscure what-ifs. get yourself a copy of international aircraft modeler( i think its called) should be easy for you as its printed on your side of the pond. that will give you much more info.

it would be a good lead in (if being given not bought) until they can afford more modern gear. besides, i wouldn't mind knowing the Double Ugly is servin yet another air force for a few more years

i see what you did on your R+R! congrats man

for those still in good hunting, for those retired good luck. for all you cats over there keep ya heads down and take care of business!

For your birthday I give you proper punctuation. Don't look for it everyday. Happy Birthday Dave

pilot was recovered by an Osprey, thus justifying every dollar ever spent on it. the WSO was recovered by the rebel side and handed back to our side. when have you heard of that in american warfare lately, i think not since WW2.

we didn't ask for no stinkin Hinds knockin on our door! btw where is the grey skin for the Hawk T1A from orig? looked for it on here but wound up findin it stashed on my external.

better plop it offa norway rather than key west. it needs some serious shrinkage!

looks like a modern version of a brit plan in WW2 to build iceberg size carriers outta ice. would have been big enough to support a squadron of B-17s plus an escorting wing of fighters with no need for catapult or arresting gear

well damn. didnt think the Navy had em fully up and runnin yet. in that case the Libyan EADS should be a good warm up for them.

schweeeeeet!

i dont think so. they are still in the evaluation mode, not to mention the US so far only seems to be committing cruise missles and warships to the effort.

soulfreak, while any news (including the now obvious there is no news) would be welcome, i was mainly setting up the old 2 weeks routine (the "wait for it" part o the post). i wasnt tryin to tick you off. stop yellin at me (j/k)

most specifically: SavedGames/ThirdWire/(Version of Game)/Objects/Decals that is assuming you are using Vista.

you know since migalley thread is locked i'll ask the most important question...... when will we see these new Sabres? (wait for it..........................)

you need SF2E specifically as it uses the stock eagle cockpit (if i read the readme right)

good luck to your nephew. it has quieted down there quite a bit since i was there in 05. i could expect a mortar attack 2-3 times a day while i was there. yet when i was talkin to iraq folks waitin on my R+R flight from Afghanistan in 09, they thought i was in some serious $h!t for recieving a rocket attack once a week. he keeps his eyes and ears open, and doesnt get complacent (however bored he gets) and he should be just fine.

hopefully Obama gets off his a$$ and allows naval air to provide the SEAD for this. as for actual air to air and air to mud, i think the Brits and French should have that wrapped up with assets in theater, tho after the last 25 years and with the retirement of the Tornado F3s we prob have the best air defense suppresion capability. looks like Rafale and Typhoon are bout to get broken in...

as suhsjake said welcome to the dark side. i liked Gen 1 cause of the plethora of Phantoms but my computer skills were so poor (i didnt know what ini's did!) that i only used plug and play mods. i have picked up quite a bit with Gen 2 ( and added around 40 units to my Phantom fleet in decals and squadronlist) and if a cherry like me finds it easy to mod with a meastro like yourself will produce true works of art. like all the rest i look forwaard to it sir

on the one hand it does stop and make you wonder for a moment. on the other multiple wars, disasters and signs of "the end" have been around for as long as people have been congregating in at least two groups and someone was out front of those groups to explain "it all". the difference today is instant communication where anyone/everyone can know what is happening or said anywhere in the world. same rapid progression that allowed my first deployment in 2000 to feature 1 phonecall a day (if i wanted to get up at 3 am, being a newly wed at the time i did) and one internet seson a week to afghan 2009 where my wife heard the rocket fly overhead and hit thru my cellphone! then looked me over on my personal internet/webcam in the room to make sure i wasnt bleeding anywhere. the same things i think are going on around the world, we just know about it sooner and pay people who are not much smarter than you or i to run their mouths about it.

it really depends on how secure you want to be or paranoid you let yourself get. i have a 500GB external that i download to periodically to maintian my files. if im not savin something or lookin for something on it it stays unhooked from my computers. others are alittle more hardcore in their backup standards.

yes esp. when one of them is 4 years old!
