  1. What is wrong with the USAF?

    sparkomatic replied to sparkomatic's topic in The Pub

    Eh, not technically a drone...that particular machine (my understanding) is part of the heritage flight down at Tyndall...basically they keep it around for air shows and the like...it was spared the drone fate...just barely...and just to keep it in line and under budget, it gets parked in sight of the target drone force of QF-4E's on the same ramp...now THAT is motivation

  4. FE Apr2008 patch question

    sparkomatic replied to sparkomatic's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2

    it is the little things...was debating about swooping in to land, see if they needed help, you know...now that I know it is a tin can full of sweaty dudes, eh, they can take care of it themselves / we're low on fuel / have to go to de-brief...

  5. Effective camo.

    sparkomatic replied to allenjb42's topic in Military and General Aviation

    It doesnt matter how well the ABU works...the USAF makes you wear a damn reflective belt in a combat zone any way...I know I was there...it was mega-dumb...a reflective belt in a combat zone...

  11. WOI Only?

    sparkomatic replied to Piecemeal's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion

    Ideally you want to taxi (drive around on the ground) less than 25 knots...use the rudder keys/controls to steer

  14. there is a tutorial by Mustang that details very well how to get the drawings into 3ds and to scale...it is in this forum, download section...indispensable
  15. There are quite a few tutorials out there, even on uTube...a word of experience though...the model is only about 10% of the process...not saying its the "easy part" because it is not...but is very frustrating work...work...and more work

  19. twin-engined jet question

    sparkomatic replied to kesegy's topic in Military and General Aviation

    I think he's right that it was the F2H for US twin engine in combat...though not air-air combat... For giggles, think the first US 4-jet in combat was the RB-45 Tornado
