  1. Now THAT is cool, thanks TK and crew! Good for you! 8)
  2. Man, what a sweetheart eh? You lucky dog... Now keep in mind that big monitor is only gonna make it easier for you to see your explosion from my missle strikes... :roll:
  3. Hiya Gunner. I would get a copy of "Computer Edge" magazine. Its a weekly pc rag and is free. When I shop for parts, I use it to check prices. They have an online version which also lists their advertisers with their ads. You can find it here... http://www.computoredge.com/sandiego/. Also frys has a online store located here... http://www.outpost.com/. Frys can have some good prices but a lot of the salesmen are really young, inexperianced, and still trying to wipe thier noses without using their sleeves so beware. Nothing against young people in general, but these salesmen often just got a lot to learn about pc's and sales. Its a good idea to do your research first and go in there with a specific item in mind already. They also have a very good selection on stuff, its like a PC superstore. Make sure though you dont buy something that has been returned and repacked and restocked. If you keep your sales reciept and the original packaging, their return policy is pretty liberal, (except for software which is same as anywhere), I have had no problems there. Hey! Glad to see San Diego so well represented, hehehe. Bob, you said you were in Bullhead. My former Father in law worked there on the dam when they were building it. I dont doubt that its hard to find PC stuff there...Do they even have phones there?
  4. LOL! You know, right after I asked this question, I went over to the skunk works and found just what you are talking about. They also mentioned work on a Mirage and Mig-15, and a SU-something or other. Didnt see a Mig-17 but if thiese aircraft actually happen I doubt it will be long before the -17 comes along. This is gettin cooler by the minute... :D I still havent found any modders websights, so if anyone sees anything, please let me know.
  5. I was wondering...whats the chance of getting some flyable period communist aircraft modded for Strike Fighters? I was thinking like Mig-17's and Mig-21's. It would also be cool to see some Mirages flyable for middle east scenarios. This would certainly make for some interesting online shootouts, espesially with the different performances and weopons. Is there any well known modder websites that may be working on these aircraft? Thanks fellas.
  6. Thanks Jeff, looking forward to it. Get well too pal...
  7. Mainly I think weasal is correct in stating this era of aircraft is one that has been overlooked making this sim eagerly anticipated. These aircraft are ones that all of us are about to blow a gasket waiting to fly. However I'd have to add knight isnt all wrong either. Like him I have been waiting for something about vietnam airwar. While this doesnt have any Vietnam focus or scenarios in it that I know of, there is little doubt the sim community will be coming up with some great scenarios and addon mods. I would love to see a mod for the B-52 made, (doesnt have to be flyable , just AI is good), that would work in this game and then make a campaign for the Christmas '72 Hanoi bombings with you as escort or flying wild weasel. Or how about a MAJOR Rolling Thunder campaign eh? :D
  8. Hi Hollywood and N42. Im a bit new myself but like you I think this ought to be a good online home for my flightsimming. :D I checked out your reviews, look outstanding and sound professional and enthusiastic like you give a flyin banana! Ya! I might take this opportunity to mention that I am a member of the Military Gamers Group which is a bunch of present and former military, police, and emergency services personnel who love to game and are not a little salty. We too are into a number of games with ghost Recon among the very top. Our website is located at http://www.militarygamers.com/index2.htm. Please feel free to visit and Ill let them know about your site too. Hollywood wouldnt be an illusion to San Diego recruit depot would it? ...as in "hollywood Marine? Before I went Navy to see the world, and boy did I see the world!, I was a Marine stationed at Camp Pendleton. Got tired of humpin hills.
  9. Yeah, I love goin down clairemont blvd on paydays with cash in mah pocket, just like when I was in the Navy 'cept those were bars... Soooo many computer shops and soooo little time...hehehe. What part of Az. ya in? I used to live in Tucson, grew up there, rodeo'd in High School. Used to love watchin the evening sunsets and thunderstorms. I have a LOT of good memories about that place.
  10. Now bear with me here, I dont know squat about skinning. But I was wondering, what software do you use to paint your blank skins with? :?:
  11. Oh dont worry too much about me bird dogg, hehe, Ill be gettin the game. Ive waited too long for this one. I think it is like everyone says though...this game has a lot of potential. I just hope its realized. I tend to agree with you and feel TK and crew will square this baby away givin a little time. By the way, thank you for your comments. It actually sounded a lot more positive than I thought it would. Cant wait... :)
  12. The VF-102 Diamondbacks! They were on the USS Independance when I sailed on her in 1977-79! They were one great buncha pilots, we all loved 'em. Well, guess you all know what plane Ill be flyin... :D
  13. Not yet...the dweeb took too long at his mother's estate sale and didnt make it to the store in time...imagine that! Were are our priorities these days... :roll: ...just kidding...cant wait though.
  14. Seems almost like the whole "ground" portion of the game may need work from listening to you fellas. No flak or AAA, ground crashes you survive(!), damage modeling on the ground targets is poor to non-existant. I espesially didnt like the part about the ships. I also understand the ground graphics arent so good. Any comment on that BirdDogg? Well, here's hopin Third Wire is listening to this. They have left out or mostly undone a MAJOR part of the game. I was glad to hear TK say that the editor at least will be included in a future release. I hope to get the game tonite so I'll see for myself I suppose. Hope its worth the money. Ive really been lookin forward to a game like this.
  15. My buddy called Frys Electronics and they have 15 copies as of lastnite.
  16. I figured you didnt add the A6 In truder because of the tandem seating issue but that would be my first choice. After that the Crusader has my vote, then the Thud.
