  1. Dropping lots of iron.
  2. I like setting time of the day to either early morning or right before sun down. Also enabling fog (vis ~5k and thickness about 1k) makes it prettier.
  3. You should read news section and checkout few posts.
  4. Paid upfront for failed KickStarter? Sorry for o/t SiThSpAwN
  5. I'm not 100%, but I believe Ru aircraft are unable to monitor 243mhz freq. I'm betting F-16 guard calls were made on it given that is mainly used by US made aircraft.
  6. minus one F-16. Pilot ok. http://www.lcsun-news.com/story/news/2015/11/25/holloman-fighter-jet-crashes-during-training-mission/76379366/
  7. It's all right :D
  8. Not yet. At least my key isn't showing.
  9. Another expensive option is to have external box do recording and publishing / steaming. This option gives zero performance hit and records at very high quality. http://www.ebay.com/gds/Top-6-Video-Capture-External-Drives-/10000000177715722/g.html

    DCS: F-5E!

    Lovely. If that is implemented - limfac goes away.

    DCS: F-5E!

    I'm not sure how that is effective means of employing this aircraft. If they attach a weapon to my aircraft that I can not guide, that provides way too many limitation. Especially when weapon is designed primary against tanks. So to make it effective I need to coordinate where I need to release said weapon, on what frequency it is guided and at what time guided laser will turn on while other aircraft (wingman or other flights) are trying to do same. So IMHO, it's a nice toy to have in a very limited conflict where prior coordination has been accomplished in such a way that enemy cannot have a say in your plan. btw, this is not if it can be used, but more of why would someone employ such strategy with so many limfacs. Sorry for offtopic

    DCS: F-5E!

    That's one way to solve the problem. Such a close support with ground team requires too much coordination...IMHO of course. Also given that first laser guided maverick was released around ~1985...and aircraft is early 60's design....

    DCS: F-5E!

    I don't know much about F-5 either, but where is the laser hiding that will guide said weapon?
  14. Which alt pressure inside the pit? That depends on the aircraft. I think U-2 keeps it at 30k ish. While KC-135 can be at 5000-8000. So fighter probably will be somewhere in between.
  15. Correct. So they may experience some symptoms which are not fatal most of the time. Usually USAF would put you in a chamber after experiencing high alt decompression.
  16. Part of ejection system has oxygen bottle that either automatically turn on or require pilots action. The pressure of that oxygen last about 10ish minutes....
  17. Not sure if this been posted before
  18. Obviously I'm joking. If it's designed to replace F-16, it is physically unable. So scratch that F off. Some say it's designed to replace A-10, but still unable. Scratch that A off. B? It doesn't have enough load to do B. So scratch that off as well. What do we have left? Dash-35. :D
  19. I wonder how much of this discussion would go away if you just rename the jet. Instead of F-35, call it A-35 or even B-35. Personally I like B/A-35.
  20. http://www.amazon.com/Stealth-Fighter-Year-F-117-Pilot/dp/0760341354 This gives a good perspective about 117. To me it doesn't have enough fun...if that makes sense. Challenging parts are take-off, refueling and finding your target to drop a bomb.
  21. There was. I joined before 2.5 was rolled out. It was a good time and my ignorance knew no limitations. So much time passed by.... I remember playing Aces High on "adds free" version of net-zero on 56k. A lot has changed....
  22. I think, I migrated from old Flanker 2.0 boards....it's been a while.

  24. It's SR-75. With vectored thrust.
