Oh, I do prefer the bare metal, always adds a sleek modernistic look to any airplane, even the ERCO Ercoupe.

Forget Russian media, it may be as bad as Western media. Here's why... Your linked article claims, with no link, Russian author Sergey Markov as saying:: “Crimea is not their main target, they really don’t care about it.” If Markov wrote that, then Markov is deceiving his Russian readers, like this "politico" article decieves us Western readers. How do we know? Nightwatch -- For the night of 25 February 2014:: There! We know what this is about, because we played The StrikeFighters last night read The Nightwatch today. Now I can see Russian Professor Markov writing only about protecting Russian speakers from teh nazzies, and western media writing only about protecting "democracy" from teh commies, lol...neither medias will tell their readers what is going on. If you'd like to see a bit more, here's the CombatAce Nightwatch thread ~> http://combatace.com/topic/61055-nightwatch/

I dropped one too! Just a few months ago, shattered it. Told my boss, and he said, in his plumbing career, he couldn't remember how many he dropped and broke, so don't worry bout it.

The first CIA ones were black, or close to it. Like this.... I always thought this pic would fit one of those Caption This threads. I always hear Johnson asking Powers... Johnson:: Johnson was right. Sausage, hot peppers with cheese...all with anchovies...will some hours later bring down any man, any where in the world. The untold story.

um ... well PCR has lots of cred in the past, WSJ editor and Reagan Man ( ), and crazy anti~Bush, like me. Mostly I just recall his warnings about the debt in the 1980s, which had to be paid sometime, in some way. That time is now, 30 years later. He nailed that. I never followed him otherwise though. The Nightwatch has some stuff about all this...apparently NW is getting bashed for analysis of Ukraine and Thailand. Very interesting. For the night of 19 February 2014 ~> http://www.kforcegov.com/Services/IS/NightWatch/NightWatch_14000034.aspx Czech it out

Love it thanks. Oh, possibly the *first* air-air combat in WW2 was P.11 and Stuka, forgot which one shot down the other, lol P.11 was that old, but both pilots reunited decades later.

I may need a tile layer if I can get back into SF enough. Didn't you make the old Libya terrain tiles? In stepping back a bit into SF again, and working on that fat map, I'm cutting back to 8,000 or 9,000 kms, so I can use standard size 2km tiles. When I firmly decide what I need, I'll poast an update. It should be SF-1 and -2 capable, hopefully. I can't tile. I tried, yuck. - - - - - If you want a really sweet project, get some friends up for south west Pacific map, centered on the Celebes. Its a vastland of mountain jungle islands with strong peaks in TK's terrain engine. Very tropical and its what I experimented with first when I got into the SF years back. With not too many terrain types, and few to no cities, the terrain should be comparatively easy compared to say Europe. Me, I'm back on the big USSR+ map, but not as big.

Snail:: Lake Baikal Olympics -- Neatest place in the world. I'd watch every minute of that just for the location alone. Yea you'd think winter Olympic = Siberia.

Yep, remember Snailman's observations....what you see on the big media is manufactured, no matter the country or state or whatever. Never watch the Omps myself. If sports isn't about only fun and nothing else, its not worth it. That said, if I could go back and start again, I'd grow up to be a figure skater or nuc designer -- both amazingly detailed artforms with spectacular visual results depending on lots of raw physics. Go figure lol.

Actually, gloss black offers overall lower visibility at night, than flat black. Jeeps should be bright purple or similar, Lightnings should be silver and yellow/blue/red ... etc... before RAF banned that.

So I was right after all hehe, well kinda? ~> http://combatace.com/files/file/6050-siberian-sky-the-volcano-mod-for-strategic-air-warfare/ Although I did this only to model old Cambrian War afterburner visibility at very long distances at night. Still Thanks again!!!

Seriously thanks man. Why black? Keeping it secret? Like black jeeps should be repainted wild fun colours. Lightning is made for metallic finish, with some wild colours. English squadrons knew this, although RAF didn't.

NK = HOA ? subscribed lol

subscribed hehe *Somewhere* on Ytube is Israeli soldiers doing something roughly like this on patrol, although a cam was well placed to record it. Nicely practiced though.

Snail, that's interesting stuff. I've learned to totally reject everything shown or told on the media. Its the only way to be sure. lol A few years back, there was a peaceful protest somewhere up yonder Canada ways, and some "militant radicals" infiltrated and tried to incite violence, but the protesters called them out, so the radicals crossed the line to the police. The radicals were undercover police trying to make cause for violent police response. Police cowards, or potential state terrorists even. Very interesting indeed.

For the night of 20 January 2014:: NK facing two war fronts? Very interesting indeed.

Fossil kit ... that's a good one. Thanks.

Nightwatch for the night of 5 January 2014 indicates probably ... didn't happen. ~> http://www.kforcegov.com/Services/IS/NightWatch/NightWatch_14000003.aspx Think about it, the Chinese liked Chang, so yea a Chinese .gov paper might make this up. But, who knows, it seems kinda NK~esque to do something like that with dogs though. As someone somewhere commented ... 120 dogs ? ?

As Tom Baker said, that's a contradiction in terms. I saw this box as a squish in a Missip hobby shop. This was a NATO MiG-23. There is another, real MiG-23, the Ye-8 which was to be the next MiG after -21, but it was cancelled and they hopped on board the swing wing thing. I'm guessing this one slipped past NATO. NATO "Flipper" ~> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikoyan-Gurevich_Ye-152A (the two engine version) First MiG-23 prototype Ye-8 ~> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikoyan-Gurevich_Ye-8 How many more MiG-23s out there?

240 pages, pubbed out last December 2012, and I didn't know, cos I never asked. Just ordered, along with B-29s over Namsi (not the exact title). ~ www.amazon.com/Boeing-B-50-Air-Force-Legends/dp/0984611495/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1388412459&sr=1-1&keywords=BOEING+B-50 btw, apparently the Namsi author (Earl McGill) has a "real" (not kindle) reprint of Jet Age Man coming out soon, biographing his B47 and B52 piloting. 2014 pub date.

Hear of this one? RN sailor cat on HMS Amethyst? ~> http://www.purr-n-fur.org.uk/famous/simon.html

Sounds plausible it happened, ... NKs always loved using dogs for terror, and this adds to the political message sent. However it was done, the Chinese are hopping mad about the arrest and exection. Would they stop at the 38th though? lol

Ah, once a year or two, I still play Master of Orion 1 from 1993, on my dos box, which is a modern box but with only MSDOS 6.22 for os and dos stuff installed. I make multiple independent backups for everything.

lol

They (tsa) are asking for discounts now, at private businesses. I saw one example of this; the boss politely declined. And now they want "free" guns, obtained with public debt? Horse, its not that simple. Here's a funny article describing an incident when trained professionals©® became very unprofessional, to the extent of sabotaging military ops.... Intruder Alert - Penetrator - Watch out for the "Pink" man! by Al Brewer, USAF ~~> http://50.137.56.231/b-58/cws_sevenhigh.cfm in general, the best traditional method is father and son/daughter for firearms training, but that implies child raising. Oddly enough, SAC under LeMay was a leading indicator of the future breakdown of the American family, with the fathers being hardly at home. I am a bit late on the firearms thing, so I went through a trained ex-marine/firefighter who worked at a local gunshop.
