  1. how did you know they would be there Dave? did you use Realtime or Beagle? plus i thought the Jolly Rogers tailed the Backfires for Op Doolittle! ps everyone, need a copy of RSR!
  2. good job Slarti, though my preferred method once again is hit the deck runnin. AI still doesnt like coming down below 500 ft (tho thats down from the previously observed 1000 ft) and missles definatly lose you in ground clutter below 250 feet! most of my ACM lately comes from doing an immelman and poppin a F Sparrow at that one a$$hole in the Flogger that doesnt take mach 1.15 and 200 ft AGL for the last 5 miles as a hint i want to leave! no maybe not smart but strangely effective when you only have one mig tagalong....
  3. GODDAMNEVILCOMMBUILDINGSDOTTIR? what is it? yes i was watching Airplane tonight
  4. need more hornets like this workin a Army/Navy mix in the kitchen right now, tho its still mostly a soldier ran show. first for everythin i suppose
  5. happy birthday UK!
  6. of course its real infidel swine! is rQ-one70 Zentinel, says so on 1/1 scale kitbox! even has real Sony guts! they will keep on display at Bombed Out AB for as long as like! and mister CrazyhorseB34, is not trucker hat. Iran are a professional army
  7. numinous? gad he's so bored he's inventing new words! seriously try just going for a drive. no destination, just drive. or as others have said let yer wife know. honey do lists bring ends to boredom. (didnt say you'd be happy....)
  8. looks like the final configuration for the RF-4C prototype, which also did YF-4E duty and FBW testin with canards at the end of its career. can be seen at the USAF museum (sans iranian paintjob) today. looks damn cool tho.
  9. if your not looking for historically accurate use the ones from my Post Vietnam pack. i did all the TW Phantom serials in all black (for Euro 1 and SEA Wraparound) and in gray. still gotta update that pack but no wireless reception in the room right now so i'm stuck with MWR computers that i cant upload/download on.
  10. maybe he wants two different time eras. bases and cities looked different in say WW2 thru the 50s and the 70s thru the 80s. a berlin airlift scenario would be geographically the same as GermanyCE but look much different.(nudge nudge hint hint wink wink know what i mean? )
  11. this has been a fun one to read!!! i'll be with everyone else in the 9/10 lookin at cat files (for Phantom changes and squadronlistin my case). sorry Slarti, you are the 1/10! . i will get it in 3 weeks after 1. it comes out and 2. i convince my wife to buy it, d/l to a thumbdrive and mail it to me! and Dave, it aint snowin here. sorry, no pony!
  12. same opinion as Major Lee, Gepard. no one wants to see a major economy or currency fail. at the time i just did not think the nations of Europe had come together enough at that point for it to work. the way that europe has interlocked its economies and defense is a big step to a quote united states of europe. however national identities are still very strong within each soveriegn nation and may lead to big changes down the road. as always, politics play a part in economics and vice versa. not to mention as always, all politics is local. maybe not the end of the euro zone itself, maybe a changeup in the currency to adjust for the current problems.
  13. when RL gets suckier (and with lotsa downtime) thats when ya fly the SF skies and mod. and in my case find out someone else way more skilled is working on what i'v been muddling through for the last two weeks! still looking forward to it guys both someplace interesting to me to fly besides the Fulda Gap and certain planes that SF2E is missing from TW/CA. (Invaders come to mind )
  14. corruption in a major sports organization! gasp!! how could that be?!?!?!? and for the part in the middle of the page about "in case we upset the germans",as john cleese said in the episode of that show(one about a hotel cant remember the name)..."well you started it!"
  15. ya know i was stationed in germany when they switched fron the mark to the Euro.i will give the eurozonbe credit, i thought it would tank and everyone would go back to the old currencies within 5 years when it changed. still, i miss the old mark exchange rate(averaged 2 marks to the USD while i was there)
  16. sooo while waiting on the bird across the atlantic, i started conveting some of the old Dutch 323Sqn Diana skins over to decals for TWs F-16A. i was bored. also found some decals with Dianas not on site yet. however the feet are currently chopped off the old girl. does anyone know the meshname for the base of the vert tail? the ventral fins would be useful too as the summer and winter Dianas have the serial and fin stripe moved to there. will release screenies as soon as i get my own internet up and plan to release as a pack when done (4 skins so far, with a total of 6 when done) TIA and thanks to the Dutch for constantly puttin them blondes up on the tails of their Vipers!
  17. ah dont tease me gotta get my external back so i can work on barley grey again. my install is fairly basic right now. thanks for the info though.
  18. great job by the crew! although i wannaa know why something like this happens anytime i fly

      oh its already chilly in my neck of the woods slarti. stary, i'll trade ya sure. but i still get the paycheck!:p lol

  20. does it have the RAF skins as well? or only RN? and as far as other planes, again i vote for player flyable F-104Gs. hell make it the focus of the next expansion pack
  21. oh you would ask this well i am away from home and my books! i am workin from memory here but recall seein that the navy preferred the centerline due to flying characteriscs and the fact that their airbase could get closer to the fight. the air force usually seems to prefer the 2 wing tanks (740 gal vs 600 gal). however in the early days of LGBs one wing and and the centerline would be carried with a Pave Knife pod on the other wingtank station. as for the brits, no gunpod before the 80s on F-4K (in RN or RAF service) and mostly brit munitions, GP bomb and RP. on loadout i have seen in photos alot is on the inboard, 2x AIM-9, TER with two Matra pods and one 540 GP bomb. and thats RN! three bags of gas for that loadout. after the jaguar came into service the FG1,FGR2 and F-4J(UK) were all tasked air defense with full load of missles 2 tanks and SUU-23. and finally, go 4 mavericks (payload vs drag/wieght considerations). pre maverick go CBUs. yer not up armored like a Hog, one pass and get the hell outta Dodge! hope this helps, thos like i said im not at home so cant double check me facts or photos. good thing its only my short term memory thats messed up!
  22. thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!
