  1. Take my hand, mate :). My wife is Ukrainian too. And her name is Natasha. She doesn’t speak Ukrainian language because she was born in Crimea (Russian-speaking zone of Ukraine), but she has beauty and type of mind of Ukrainian girls :thumbup:. :beer: I forgot to say in last message. It is necessary to know when to stop. If you will sit at the monitor round the clock (or all your free time) nobody can be a good wife. Our girls, fiancees and wives need attention. Nothing whatever of entertainments can't replace you :smilewink:.

  2. I've recently started flying the SU-25A for the first time since 1.02, and I've got to admit that I actually really like it. As a result of my new piloting habbits, I've started an open ended set of missions that I will work on as and when I have some down time. To add a twist, the missions are set in 1977 and depict a Russian invasion of Georgia in an effort to allow the regoin of Abkazia to rejoin what was then the Soviet Union. I highly recommend that you fly the SU-25A training missions prior to flying this first mission, as they will prove invaluable to anyone who is not familiar with the airframe. I've put the first mission in as a single and two player version of the mission (which I always recommend flying with a friend ;) ) and are packaged with modman. http://www.mediafire.com/?lmdv11na8xt I really would appreciate any feedback as this will help me build the ongoing missions. Edit : I use several mods whilst creating and testing these missions, and I highly recommend their use...

  3. Hi fellow simmers, first post, been lurking for a while :).. I agree, it´s probably further down the list for fixing, but since I fly for a living and have seen and landed at hundreds of airports around the world I wanted to add my 2 cents here: Most airports have directional runway lights of various intensity that are in fact pretty much focused into the approach-direction (kinda like headlights in a car). It is really hard to spot a runway at night from the side if you are further away. For that reason they also usually have small lights on top of the directional lights to aid with keeping the runway in view while doing visual or circling approaches at night, but these can´t be seen from a larger distance. There are also flashing pairs of lights (omniderectional) at some runways to aid in spotting the runway ends (REIL). I am not that familiar with the lighting-layout of purely military airfields in the C.I.S., having used only major international airports there. There is a misconception about the runway lights of major airports being absolutely bright and brilliant - in fact when approaching an airport within a well-lit city at night the easiest way to spot it is to look for a dark area within all the lights :). What shines out furthest is usually the flood-lights of the tarmac or loading-areas... The runway lights are usually kept to a lower level to not blind the pilots, they will only be turned up to full intensity during heavy fog. On a related note, did anyone else notice that the reflection of the anti-collision light on the black shark seems to be clearly visible on some airport structures during bright daylight, even when the source (KA-50) is hundreds of meters away in some of the movies? That´s another thing to tone down, in my opinion, but then again, merely a cosmetic touch. Looking forward to the revival of the study-flight-sim-genre, Litjan

  5. В переводе на русский - после покупки продукта, юзеры, владеющие напильником, совместными усилиями имеют шансы доработать оный по некоторым статьям до уровня конкурентов. Мир ЛокОна и правда страшен, неужели найдется человек, который возьмется доказывать обратное? Недостатки надо признавать, если есть желание их исправить. И вроде совсем неприпомню, чтобы вас тут особо напрягали фальконисты.

  6. http://keep4u.ru/full/080728/3eedd2f304898c16b5/jpg Интересно? А как бы я убрал нелинейность без вскрытия? А на счёт педалей, так на фото всё видно. Сами педали из фанеры 10 мм, закреплены на петлях от шкафа или тумбочки. Та хреновина чёрная круглая, это просто подходящая ось с потшибниками, что нашлась у меня. А дальше переходник на штатную деталь от Х-52, что рулила на ручке.

  7. Так это в полуавтомате происходит, - за явным преимуществом и за отсутсвием вменяемых конкурентов. Просто они открыли, что помимо ФМ у современных самолетов есть и электроника. Ключевое слово - "нормальная" Такая бывает раз в несколько месяцев, да и то на костылях в виде сторонних глючных ATC. В обычные дни - аэроквака. Это для любителей В-В. Для любителей В-З всё ещё хуже: однообразный вынос немногочисленных колонн + уничтожение точечной цели(псевдо ПВО), при том. что в онлайне, если это не проект типа Locerf, ИВС и т.п., первые вылет-два приходится на разведку, ведь каких-либо свежих данных на нет, несмотря на то, что миссия идет уже много часов. ЗЫ. Laivynas, "я тебе один вещь скажу - ты только не обижайся", имхо ты как-то неадекватно воспринимаешь критику ЛО и сравнение его с фальконом.

  8. Excellent "campaign" start mission. Nice mood and atmospheric--I like flying at that time of day. And the vanilla Su-25 is a fun bird to fly. Rich

  9. No, friend. It is impossible to translate :D. Russian unquotable vocabulary much more rich than English. Especially when it touch the extreme situation. We have even some jokes about this. I think you know some of them. But these not for forum :). May be one day with a bottle of beer... :drink: _____________ Added: Ooops. Sorry, I did not see your little text: "Disclaimer: Translated the best of my knowledge, some words can not be translated, so had to improvise".

  10. Married 40 odd years. Gaming and Fun v Wife and Occasional sex with a 60 year old woman. No dilema, get rid of wife and buy new super PC with whatever is left, it worked for me. Must be an age thing - the older I get in years the more my mental age regresses.

  11. I used to think my girfriend was gonna be a key factor for me not enjoying LOMAC and FC as much as I wanted and she was on a right path in first months of our relationship. It's been a 3,5 years since we met and in the first few months she was polite enough not to bitch about me having headphones, TIR hat and HOTAS in my hands. She was also interested in what's all the fuzz about so I kindly explained what's the deal here! She's a native Ukraininan, I mean her parents are but she's born here in Zagreb, Croatia. Her name is Natasha. She speaks Russian and Ukrainian like her mother tongue. So I made a useful, tactical move here. You know how RL RuAF squadrons usually record their own warning sounds (Naggin Nadja). Actually, they call that girl who's voice they have Natasha. So I made LOFC custom warning sounds with my girfriends voice! She's good with that and never complains of me playing into small hours!

  13. If you can be good, if you can be wise, Without to be moral nor pedant. If you can meet triumph after defeat And to receive these two liars of a same face. If you can preserve your courage and your head, When all the others lose it. Then, kings, gods, the chance and victory Will be forever your subjected slaves, And only then if you can master the Flanker, You will be a man, my son. Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)
