Air Force officials initially had held out hope that the pilot, Captain Jeffrey Haney, might have ejected from the plane and survived Tuesday night's crash. "Based on evidence recovered from the crash site, and after two days of extensive aerial and ground search efforts, we know that Captain Haney did not eject from the aircraft prior to impact," Colonel Jack McMullen, commander of the Air Force 3rd Wing at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, said in a statement. Search teams at the wreckage site, about 100 miles north of Anchorage, found part of Haney's ejection seat and several items the pilot wore during the flight, McMullen said. "Sadly, we can no longer consider this a search and rescue operation but must now focus on recovery operations," he said. Haney was married with two children. He joined the Air Force in 2003 and has been at the Anchorage base for 4 1/2 years. The F-22 took off Tuesday from the joint Air Force and Army base for a training run. The jet and a second F-22 practised "intercepts" and were nearing completion of the exercise when one aircraft disappeared from ground radar tracking and from communications with the other F-22 at 19:40h local Tuesday. An air search had been ongoing, with searchers looking for any sign of a parachute or a fire the pilot might have started had he been able to eject from the plane.

Happy birthday Mr Sundowner :drinks: :drinks:

I went out of my way to see it at the time, because they were in it!! - truly shocking

File Name: A-6A DIANE bombing system File Submitter: MigBuster File Submitted: 30 Sep 2008 File Category: Jet Cockpits Yeah right - dream on - this is actually just a CCIP sight to allow you some form of level bombing and relive those FOTI days Basic CCIP for A-6A to simulate a DIANE level bombing system. For Stock A-6A WOV (Version September 2008) only tested on Hard Avionics See the instructions file Issues: 1. No Terrain Avoidance Radar mode with new avionics 2. Unguided rockets uses the same CCIP sight - its an in game thing so you will just have to ignore it Its useless for targetting anyway. Click here to download this file

Yeah - think its down to the pilot training - they have always been the worst opponents. Whereas in single missions the MiG-17Fs and MiG-19s can be very difficult(particularly in SF2). It takes a while sometimes to get used to a certin jet again - I prefer the F-8 in a DF than the F-4/100/101/102/104 though (all settings on Hard btw and red planes removed from map). The Razbam F-102 with AIM-4s only being the ultimate challenge/nightmare - handles alright but I cant see out of the cockpit to keep tally on anything and it seems very slow - tasked to escort a flight of B-57Bs to NV - couldnt catch them - the MiG-17s did though doh!.

Nice shots - thanks for posting

Lets hope that turns out okay

:yes: "DIPUTS ERA EW SEY"

Fave 1. Star Wars IV 2. Back to the Future 3. Rambo I: First Blood So much **** and so little spaces: Unfave 1. Guest House Paridiso - one of the few films I have switched off after 30 mins on viewing 1 2. Wing commander - It was very funny - although wasnt supposed to be 3. Iron Eagle 3 - needless to say I never bothered watching #4

If you have reseated the cards - then type dxdiag into the run prompt and press enter - see if it flags anything up. Does the game run okay on 1 card?

Have you ever had skins on the original objects? When did you buy the game and where did you buy it from?

The flight model and many other things were changed in the 13 patches since the 2005 release based on feedback etc - the manual was never updated - and you will find lots of other advice it gives as rubbish also. 160-190 should be okay - the slower you get be careful not to have the nose too high you will land on the tail.

Yes all too true unfortunately BBC have put up a 1914 to 2010 UK casualty chart http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11743727

I like some of the filmwork in that - some spectacular footage

Brilliant what a great concept - anything that makes this job easier is fantastic

Not a pie fan myself - would probably stick a chocolate cake in a trifle and pur syrup all over it

haha - the last Government we had would have implemented those bans by now thats for sure Yeah - thats our only hope of a real stealth project isnt it

Typical - theres always someone who has to go one better - the paper planes I used to make never made it across the Classroom!

Forget that - jettison the stores, line up with the runway, descend with the nose down about 10-11 degrees (as per the HUD bars) Keep speed below 300kts all the way down and aim short of the runway, when you are low enough drop the gear and get the nose level - then check how fast you are going - you want to touch down between 160 - 200kts at the start of the Runway, use the rudder (if you have pedals) to straighten up if required, then use the brakes (you have limited braking power btw) Bare in mind that even landing with an engine in Falcon takes a lot more practise than other sims.

Yeah it does work - but only over a clean install of WOE with no mods in it beforehand. For Win 7 - DO NOT install the game in the "program Files" folder, Also right click the exe and set it to run as admin in the compatibility tab.

Sounds like the install is screwed - you would need to start again probably.

You didnt add any mods in did you?

Yeah you can - there are changes that can be made to bring them up to date - http://combatace.com/topic/44026-converting-older-planes-to-work-in-sf2-a-basic-guide-by-migbuster/ although a lot have been converted over already in the SF2 download section
