    Downloaded it, but haven't had a chance to read it yet. Don't know about the ordnance statistics from Allied Force... but something tells me that a microwave oven isn't going to defeat a missile... especially if the power grid happens to be destroyed.
  2. The real planes have better engines, highly trained pilots, and water injection, but they are still limited as to what loads they can carry for a vertical take-off. Most of the time they use a short, rolling take-off.
  3. One very big @$$ bomb!

    As Rico would say... KAAAAbooom!

  8. As far as I know (not sayin' I know a whole lot...), but all sidewinders fit on any rail, no USAF/USN differences (maybe with the -9x these days, not sure). Here's a link for more info :AIM-9 Info:
  9. They're probably realllllly light on fuel, with a planned tanker rendezvous down the road.

  12. Hypoxia Claims Another...

    It's got nothing to do with what type of aircraft you're in, it's based on altitude (or cabin altitude). Mooney's aren't pressurized, and I'm guessing (heading towards a slippery slope here..) he had an issue with his oxygen system, leading to incapacitation and subsequent loss of control.
  13. My KLu adventure

    Very cool! I'm sure FC will be proud!
  14. Today is......

  15. F-14

    Hey, it was not COMBATACE's fault that Maverick was an amateur and did't read his NATOPS!

    Dagger, congrats to you and your grandson! Hopefully you'll be able to spend more time together, and he'll learn to appreciate and respect nature, and firearms.
  19. Had the bombers from the Collings Foundation up @ KMHT this weekend, pluse a two seat P-51B (pretty rare). Here are some pics of the Mustang, the rest are in my Plane Pics gallery. HERE http://forum.combatace.com/uploads/1253663847/gallery_574_361_228346.jpg
