  1. Since the other thread didn't include all possible wishes and possibilities and its cluttered also by now at 400+ pages, i am attempting this. Feel free to vote more than one. Your votes could be a combination of what you think is ED working on and what you would like it to be.
  2. Darn i cant vote in this. Thats not fair. 435 pages already, maybe a good idea to recreate a new poll thread ? :D
  3. i am selling my CH CombatStick 568 & CH Throttle. Condition identical to new. Won't be needing them once the Thrustmaster giveaway pack will arrive :D
  4. too bad, i was eager to cast my vote , i just love polls :D plus your list is much better :D
  5. hmmm moved back here? lol mods had enough of this ? :D
  6. oh no here we go again LOL i want DCS:Akula
  7. i have actually zero X-plane experience :( does Combined arms maybe get a bit close to what you describe, just for starters maybe, who knows how it will evolve http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=81589
  8. X-Plane probably is better in some terms like this, not sure, but its graphics inferiority (although not bad) that kept me off and relatively less friendly interface
  9. for the naval operations & Tomcat daydreamers Thirdwire made public its name, "Strike Fighters 2 North Atlantic" http://twitpic.com/7j7bu0
  10. +1 with a sigh on that .....
  11. no worries, the brits are doing the same :P
  12. Gripen deserves to be powered by an improved version of EJ2000 :D (or F414, or F-110-GE-132)
  13. it appears German companies have this tendency and somehow the means too .... Spreading, encouraging or making maximum use of local, corruption all-over the globe to manage deals for their products . And to not forget it was G that skyrocketed the cost of EF and stalled its progress for years when in the middle of the process they got (typically) indecisive, contemplative, speculating and sabotaged the whole project making it commercially the semi-failure it is today dragging everyone investing money and job positions in it to lose both The austrian example its eye popping. A sureal situation of a handful of high performance jets so striped down not able to even launch (or equiped with) amraams. read somewhere about their availability being smth like 50% and the response of an officer explaining that what they really need is about 7 QRA worthy fighters so availability is ok .....
  14. intercepting some stray airbus :) and actually if they fly in a row they will cover all of your airspace maybe :P Btw, couldn't you just do with 10 Gripen or used F-16 ?
  15. lol yes no sensitivity whatsoever :P
  16. Have you tried to see if you can get your SR71 thirst quenched in FSX ?
  17. you could set it to AI midflight and jump on an A-10C :D
  18. hehe :D http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=A-10&word2=Ka-50 http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=F-18&word2=F-16
  19. C'moooooon F-18C...! I'm sure this has been asked already, but is there some specific technical or legal reason they're keeping it a secret, or is it just good old fashioned showmanship? (Or a combination of both.) Either way it bodes well for it being a "cool" plane, being either fancy enough someone out there thought they needed to make a rule against divulging it or awesome enough they feel confident letting it get built up.

  21. Although i have been waiting for a decade now for an ED Viper, still i would find the Hornet, both C/D and E/F one hell of an exciting simulation subject .... and the poll here maybe indicates its appealing to others too . Hornet posses, despite its all-around mediocrity, result of trying to combine many contradicting requirements in one platform and replace two (three or even more with E/F) different types in the more demanding environment of USN, a definitely unique personality and i also like very much the looks (for some reason reminds me the late 70s-80s perception of sci-fi intercepting, buck rogers, galactica, star wars, battle of the planets, space battleship yamato, robotech, i grew up surrounded by such imagery, grew up together with the hornet too :) Τhats probably another reason i find A-10 too amongst the hotest designs :) )
  22. i'd gladly welcome that too myself ! BUT they should at the same time change the graphics engine too if they do that, for me that is, as its still troubled by smoothness issues , in year 2011 .....
