Are Carrier Ops realistic in WOE
MAKO69 replied to malibu43's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yes, who else is gonna provide "CLOSE" airsupport for the Army, not the Airforce, .....lol I kid I kid. All branches of service would be used and needed in an all out war in Europe, in the "COLD WAR GONE HOT" scenerio. At the height of the Cold War there was a carrier no more than a 2 or 3 days away, and a lot of US Airforce and Allied Air Force units already stationed and all would be extremly valuable. -
What happened to all of the A-6 squadrons?
MAKO69 replied to allenjb42's topic in Military and General Aviation
How bout the A-6F Intuder II program that was cancelled. State of the art cockpit and electronics, new more powerful smokeless engines, new radar and jammimg technology, new composite wings, and oh yeah it would have been able to defend it self w/the AMRAAM-120. That would have been a great battle bird. -
Here are some photos of just a few of the beauties that were at the 3rd Annual New England RC Jet Rally. Very talented flyers things happen a lot faster w/turbine RC than Prop RC aircraft. The smell of jet fuel was in the air, all was good.

They have those very colorfull paint schemes so they can spot them quick . The people that have the Camo and Grey combo schemes are very brave because they get very hard to see and tell wheather its coming or going.

Modding and Realism
MAKO69 replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Roger that BINGO BANGO BONGO, Bongo hit the nail on the head. I have said this before, I love all the Modders and their work. I look at the planes and modded planes as works of art. Thats what they are. I have been messing around with some planes myself, extremly fugly stuff flying around my computer I wish I had the skill of any1 of the modders in here. later be safe all P.S. Spinners love the Brazilian Navy F-18 Superbug keep them coming guys and gals -
The Russians are the ones dropping Bombs right (on "thier" people), both sides are in the wrong the Georgian Army shoudn't have fired upon the Russian "Peace" Keeping force which probably should not have been there. The Russians were not in their own country they were asked to leave. Georgians saw them as an invading force. The Georgains have withdrawn per order of the UN. The Russians are still in Georgian Territory. They should pull out also, and find a more diplomatic soloution.

I thought the flameout was due to her adding to much power to soon it was an F-14A which had the Pratt & Whitney TF30 which didn't like sudden movements of the throttle forward, which could cause flameouts. As I recall the LSO were asking here to add power on approach she was below glidepath. -
After Georga moves on seperatists Russia invaded, Georga is trying to join NATO. Heavy fighting is reported between Russian and Georgian military elements.

Super Hornet G Limit question
MAKO69 replied to deyv's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The F-18 Supers are limited by the flight computer not sure what it is and how long it will sustain the G load. It wont let the pilot hurt the aircraft, the f-22 has the same govener to limit stress on the airframe and prolong the life of the plane. -
