  1. You can thank the bunch of pr!cks also known as the British tabloid press for turning that word into a derogatory slur some years back. Anyway, back on track, this is a screenshot thread.
  2. RAF Fairford 09

    Been twice before, can't go this year though due to a holiday. Definitely worth it, just make sure you see all the flying displays and get round as many of the statics as possible to get your money's worth. Even though there's a lot on show this year, it's still quite a steep price. What should be great is the 44 (yes, you read correctly) flying Royal Navy aircraft taking place not to mention numerous others including the Vulcan. I managed to go with cadets a few years ago on the press day which was almost even better; all the same aircraft but without the crowds. Have a look over at this forum for all the latest gossip and news about RIAT... http://forums.airshows.co.uk/viewforum.php?f=19 Last word of advice, pray it doesn't rain!
  3. Su-30MKI crashes, pilot killed

    This is getting OT, but to be honest mate you're just ignoring the blunt obvious fact that the Russian's were thinking about quantity as opposed to quality when they produced their aircraft. Regardless of the capabilities of them, the build quality and reliability simply does not match that of western aircraft. The levels of quality control and quality assurance are quite different between the two sides.
  4. Confederations Cup

    I think that game is being played at the Coca Coca stadium, I was there earlier this month and it's quite a nice place.
  5. Anyone here a Royal Marine?

    You mean that really awesome L98A1 that is beloved by oh so many?
  6. James May flies the U2

    As you can see, it has a glass cockpit... http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/pho...F-0000C-004.jpg
  7. VH-1 Top 100 Hard Rock Songs of All Time

    Lol my gross error, but still how did they rank higher? Much better than STP any day.
  8. VH-1 Top 100 Hard Rock Songs of All Time

    Agree with C5's original post, don't believe a lot of stuff belongs in that list. So Stone Temple Pilots make it, but not a single ZZ Top song? Bullsh!t, Scott Weiland is an absolute pr!ck.
  9. That is true, although I believe there may be limitations to either role in game depending on which avionics dll file is chosen.
  10. 14,000 texts You Win $50K

    That's actually ridiculous. That amount of texts a month on my pay as you go phone would cost £1,400. Oh and the last section... ...biggest load of horse sh*t ever. I don't even know where to begin, and she's supposed to be a Psychology graduate.
  11. That pit is looking rather tasty indeed, good job in taking this mod to the next level chaps.
  12. The updates to the 3D model look great, as does that pit. Can notice the smoothing quite a lot when comparing to the original model. One thing I noticed... There's quite a noticeable "crease" on the topside of the fuselage in between the engines towards the rear, you can really see it here... http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/pho...F-6911G-997.jpg
  13. Indeed, there's three in total, one on the British register, one on the American register, and the other one in the American Hangar at Duxford. The other stang in Hokum's pic, Ferocious Frankie, is a right beauty too.
  14. Props to the West Midlands Police

    That's some long range policing right there. Can't imagine how it's affected the kids, but at least it's one less scumbag to deal with.
  15. Thanks Zur, now there's beer all over my screen! Argh!
  16. Looking at getting a new laptop

    How about an Alienware...? http://www.alienware.com/products/notebook-computers.aspx There's 100 dollars off the models in the centre and on the right. Fairly decent specs too.
  17. Iran new helo

    To be honest, you can see this kind of thing happening a mile off. Probably won't be the last time they bludgeon other countries' gear into an "indigenous" design of their own either.
  18. I got offered a job by the RAAF

    Well played mate!
  19. Anyone here a physics buff?

    When I first encountered time dilation and length contraction in high school, they melted my brain. Then when you go on to explain it to others, you can watch their brains melt successively. I think I'm still allergic to the word "muon" though
  20. The answer

  21. Sports Bra Sale at Walmart

    Don't know if it's true or not, but I've heard that the said person in this photo was trying to enter a venue that had a "not shirtless" policy and so the said person in this photo improvised...
  22. Avsim gone?!

    People like that need to be cracked in the face with a wok. Unfortunately they seem not to realise the difference between being patriotic and outright attacking part of another country.
  23. Interesting indeed.... http://warbirdinformationexchange.org/phpB...asc&start=0 http://www.tacticalairsupport.com/HOME.html
  24. Hey Dave, I will finalise the grey skin this week for you.
