your what if screenies are awesome (you need to get on Spinners level and give a back story to the Iranian Voodoo) but with the handling problems, can you imagine how much the Weasel crews would bitch about their Magic Mongoose?

you all didnt think i'd have an easy request did you? thank you for sharing, but thats the wrong era. an eagle superimposed over Iceland came about aroun 1988, and lasted until they disbanded in 94. i have a decal sheet with that already im looking for the very beginning of the 1st AF era, right after the FIS's stopped being part of ADTAC. sadly, the plastic kit modeller that has the Wing King done didnt do the wolfs head. its amazing when you think of the similar challenges that plastic kit modellers and modders of the skinning variety have...

note: you can throw as many entries as you want in there. i had functioning entries through 1300 in mine, setting up blocks of units (900-949 US Air National Guard interceptor units, 950-999 US Army Attack Aviation units for example) this is presuming youre not going crazy enough to exceed 9999 units...... out of curiosity, adding LSK units?

well put. thats why this would be a standalone install, to avoid breaking similar but slightly different mods for those that have continued on with it, there has been a large amount of work put in. the ini edits you mention arent really hard or major. until you make that edit across dozens or hundreds of files those that can adjust or cherrypick to their liking will do so. those that dont know how but want to learn will also do so, but ask publicy how to fix their mistakes (while being answered by some and scolded by some) those that cant and dont want to learn, sit back and enjoy the show as its been brought to you!

it does, thats why they were last in the post. with luck, i'll be here long enough to see the first of the 916ths new Pegasus come in. but it gives me flashbacks to Bagram (not the bad kind) hearing the Eagles runnin their engines. dogs are used to it by now, tho wife and kids are still a little annoyed

winner, 10000 points on the internet

ummmmmmmm no

depends on what you mean by help. delivering disaster aid after a natural catastrophe is not only the decent thing to do (as a person or nation) but the best way to promote American ideals, especially if you dont use the efforts to promote American ideals fuckin up a functioning country, sitting there a few years without actually fixing the infrastructure, then hoppin on the next bird out isnt going to convince folks that are used to very opposite ways of life that apple pie is great. afghanistan is kinda worse, it really hasnt been a functioning country since the 1970s. might have had a chance in the early 2000s if corruption hadnt been allowed to flourish, but Haliburton couldnt let that pass now could they?

dont forget putting anything from a British/American factory in Argentine colors.....

anything we can do? no, other than help the ones that helped us get out if they want to ninety percent of hte ANA doesnt give a shit about anyone other than themselves. the ten percent that are actually good soldiers just isnt enough to do much. hopefully a different group altogether pops up, knocks the taliban on their ass and sets up a loose confederation amongst the tribes. still a pipe dream, but more realistic than the current Afghan government being effective or possible existant a year from now. i always found it funny that we had better justification for the start of afghanistan, but iraq was more successful (ish) because that government and army could almost stand on its own.

well, its 99.9999% official, i will be moving to Goldsboro NC next weekend. most of the processes are started already; utility deposits made, household packing out. And internet cutting off tomorrow. Suddenlink wont allow 5 days of service and im not paying $89 for those 5 days only. not totally going away, still have my phone and internet in the new place is one of the provided commodities. meanwhile, im signing off for now. fast forward to 1:25 for mid 80s USAF aircraft porn, complete with poor VHS squiggly video

hmm like the Brit Officer that posted classified documents to prove a point about hte Challenger i mean when Gaijin steps in to say "this is illegal and were taking it off our site"..... at the prompting of the MoD

educated guess says it's not but if they kept it, im sure it got shipped back to florida and is on display. i just cant find anything saying what happened to the car after that photo

welcome to sim lite the beauty of SF2 is not in its uber realism but rather in the wide variety of aircraft and other things available, and the abilty to add your own if you take the time to learn how (or play nice with others) DCS is awesome in its own way. but if i wanted to go through the checklist to fly a Huey i'd have gone flight Warrant*. and its nice to run intercepts on airliners in F-106s one flight, F-15s another and Mirage 3s another besides, IRL the pilot would pass out anything over 10G sustained tops (8 more likely) and release controls, thereby reducing the G force that could rip off parts. *ok i did try while i was in. evidently have a physical problem with my eyes, even though eyesight is 20/20. too much pressure, bolo'd teh physical

cool info, under the learn something new category again, fraid its not helpful to GKABS, but the generation of armor i've been around (and at least one preceding) had higher speed fire control computers instead of using that method. i have never heard any armor troops talking about it and i went to basic at Knox in 96 when it was still the home of Armor

thats what the coaxial is. never heard of a ranging MG in the pic, to me it looks like it got taken out for wsome reason, maintenence or cleaning. but i dont know british armor that well vs the M60s and M1s

thank you everyone for the assistance scientific wild ass guess, but this is how it will release (best judgement from provided pics and my own google fu). damn near completely scratch made (ok plane silhouettes are from patch, and i didnt draw Europe ) but i will be doing the 1986 Skyblazer Reunion Team .....

Bitburg Wing King in 1986. i believe it has to do with American German Tricentennial (still wrapping my head around that one) i think i got it close, but would like to get it better. Esp since DCS didnt bother with it

i think thats the same image i used to make the one displayed in lod viewer above!

Thank you, on teh decal it appears there is some writing but not in red, and i dont think its "Skyblazers". but zooming in wrecks the detail. i will keep it as is for now that bottom pic isnt totally correct, as they were a TACTICAL Fighter Wing at the time. but i got that already from the disc insignia for even earlier in teh Bitburg era that lasso tool can be useful sometimes sadly, i think i will have the most correct version, but to add it in with the line birds the placement has to be somewhat off (mesh issues). alot of the profile arts are just abit off from the photos, and DCS didnt even bother with the Skyblazer logo on the left. cant speak to FSX (if they even have this skin debating a what if reconstituted Skyblazers tho, that could be all the wing kings and insignia on skin.......

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, SKYBLAZER SOLO WITH THE SUPERSONIC SNEAK PASS...."

way better than before, tho still unsure if the skyblazer title was on. ravenclaws posted profile says yes, ABpic's library and other real photos say no. so i did options for both available as will be released

much appreciated between that and other research, have figured out it was the Skyblazers patch from the F-105 era. although in the photo i think it doesnt actually have the skyblazer name. now i can jimmy up a better scratch decal though

welcome back! as for reinstalling, do it man. im finding out that setting the install is half the fun. the other half being modding something to fit your install. with the next half being then flying what you modded (or seeing it pop up in the threads)

chill dude, its outgoing mandatory screenie, a rare shot of the infamous Yankee Air Pirate, Col U. Nam. Ehere
