  1. Yeah, reading the book gave me whole new idea about that war, other than the media did back in the days. At least about the flying in that war. The book about the F-15E in Desert Storm did that also...
  2. Have a look at the two books about the A-10 in Kosovo and Desert Storm. They've been shot at quite a few times! Radar silence has been their trick to keep some of their ADs alive when the attack aircraft came in. Many other allied aircraft also got shot at this way. Except for Afghanistan they've never been in a really safe environment. EDIT: GG was faster! ... and more detailed... ;)
  3. Now you're responsible for one lost virtual life just because you don't CONCENTRATE!!! :doh: :megalol:
  4. Yes, all Way- and Markpoints would be available, but you won't have the "connected" picture of the flightplan. That's why it might be useful (depending on a missions complexity) to work with different flightplans for different stages of the flight. I for example use a seperate flightplan for my CCIP Mk-82 approaches. For a 45°DB approach it has an IP some 4-5 nm away from the target (heading according to my ingress plans), a Roll-In Point (1.7nm offset target, 90° left/right of my ingress path) and an Aim-Off Point (1.7nm off target, aligned with RIP and target). In the flightplan it will be 1 IP 2 RIP 3 AOP 4 IP. In Flight-Plan Mode your TAD will now draw a nice triangle, which is your planned bomb-pattern. Now add altitudes and appropriate DSMS settings (Z-Diagram) and make some perfect bomb-runs without getting lower than 4.700ft! :) Sorry for drifting slightly OT... just thought some might find it interesting...
  5. Interesting! As I'm also using an ATI card I think I'll give that I try.
  6. How much would be the shipping to Germany?
  7. JaBoG32 wird auch mit min. 2 Mann vor Ort sein.
  8. Have a look here: http://www.aviationmegastore.com
  9. Didn't know that! TY!!
  10. At Roll-In/Dive set throttle to idle and employ some air-brake if neccessary. At 30° gun-strafes it should keep you safe from too crazy speeds. But also keep an eye on your speed so you don't get too slow to maneuver!! 320-370kts should be fine.
  11. Good job Paul! Even though "printer friendly" is something else... ;) Suggestion: Why not also covering western units? So much western stuff gets exported (Irak will buy F-16!!!), that a blue-on-blue hardware scenario is not so unrealistic...
  12. Slightly OT, but as the Super Bug was mentioned quite often here, I thought I share this nice article here: http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2011/07/12/359262/testing-the-next-generation-super-hornet.html
  13. Swiss? Involved in an armed conflict?? LOL!
  14. IIRC it should be at the "Attributes" page.
  15. Great! :megalol: :thumbup:
  16. Problem with Rafales sexyness is, that it looks more than a super-mega-cool-private super-sonic aircraft rather than a war-machine. That's where the super-bug scores. I love looking at the my VFA-103 scale model on the shelf, and man it looks mean! :) And yes, I also like the F-4. Especially with a full A-G load and a nice camouflage. :) Don't say the Cat sucks because of it being a interceptor only with its AIM-54. The "D" carried the AIM-120, LGBs and JDAMs. It would for sure be interesting and challenging to fly it. It's not always the most superior aircraft that is fun to fly in a sim...
  17. Radio tuned to correct frequency?
  18. Oh really? Soon????? :lol: Sorry ED, but we're waiting for that since... uhm... ever since! :doh:
  19. But those shared textures for the fuel tanks and jammer/dispenser... buah... They look even worse on the german Tornado...
  20. Be sure that at least every serious virtual squadron is using these features. Most of them even before Viper made his tutorial. It's also the guys that read the manual! ;)
  21. Yes Sir! Especially for MP!!!
  22. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LANTIRN
  23. The "B" and "D" Cats did bombing. Laser, JDAM and Dumb. And yes, of course they can also do gun-strafes on soft targets. The "Bombcat" would really be challenging, as it wasn't as "digital" as a lot of jets are these days.
  24. I think the real life background is clear, but what the in-game AI JTAC does maybe a bit less... :helpsmilie:
  25. No! "Make YOUR heading" is kinda self-explanatory. Heading = Direction your aircraft is flying AT (not from).
