  1. MOVIES about this conflict

    Hello All, I can recommend "An Ungentlemanly Act", which is widely available on DVD (Ebay, Amazon etc), which is a very moving and darkly amusing drama based on the days leading up to to Argentinian landings. It's very detailed (check out the director's commentary and be amazed!) and is filmed on location, sometimes EXACTLY so!!! It was made in 1989 or thereabouts and is an English film. It's very good.
  2. How will JT compare to Falcon 4?

    Hello All, Having played flight sims since not long after the Falklands War (on a ZX81!!!), and have bought just about every major flight sim since, as well as having flown a variety of aircraft, I'm delighted by the prospect of this sim. :) For the record, I personally found Falcon 4 an absolute pig straight out of the box. It was almost unusable! After weeks of trying to get it to work for more than 5 minutes at a time and finding bizarre bugs, it became completely unattatractive. I found that there was eventually a point beyond which I didn't much care how authentic it was, and I don't say that lightly! . I think even pretty serious simmers have thresholds, if you pardon the pun, and I'm primarily interested in a generally very accurate and reliable sim which I can cope with after a tough day and maybe a glass or two of wine. If that means the weapons modes (for example) are made a little simpler, that's fine by me! It will also be nice to "fly" something in a jet combat sim which isn't an F-16, F-15, F/A-18....etc. Ah, if only the English Electric Lightning was used in anger....or a Saab Viggen...think of the sims! Kindest regards to all. :)
