  1. Will the stick move when you trim it? ie. If I trim forward then the stick moves forward? I can map the trim to the hat and I have an older generation Saitek What I really want is a stick that will move to the position that I trim it to like IRL.
  2. Does anyone know of any flightsticks on the market that trim like an actual aircraft?? In other words, IRL, with ACS on, you would use the hat at the the top of the stick to trim the stick and it stays in that position unless moved. It just bites having to trim and not be able to see or feel it on the stick. :(
  3. No, but I spent a month out there for CAX (combined air exercise). I blew up port-a-shi**ers with MRE heaters during my spare time
  4. That pork chop looks nasty... Like something they would serve out at 29 palms! :D
  5. not this again!
  6. Incoming! http://shop.vendio.com/rrz/item/743458275/?s=1144404001
  7. Hint: I want my LHD with the LCAC so I can ferry my LAV and HWMMV to the DMZ...... yo!
  8. I have complained about this before, but, will amphib's like the LAV's actually be amphib in 1.2???????? *$!
  9. 1) CH-53: Does 200+ KIAS and can lift twice its weight internally and equal to its weight externally. 2) F-14: Anyone growing up in the early eighties loves this bird.. enough said. 3) SR-71: Still holds the world record from L.A. to New York! :icon_supe
  10. Try the search engine when asking these questions. There is no release date as of yet. There is an online software company that expects the release to be somewhere around May 15th... In short, dont hold your breath. http://forum.lockon.ru/showthread.php?t=14831&highlight=black+shark+release+date
  11. Thanks for the reply!! :)
  12. Title says it all... Thanks :p
  13. I realize that its gonna be done when its done... but I stumbled apon this site and wondered: is there any validity to it?:confused: http://www.simw.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=dsp_product_details&pid=1526
  14. Nice to see the Chaparral in the background! :icon_supe
  15. Alfa, Have you guys had auto rotation contests?? See who is the last one to pull collective without buying the farm?? :icon_supe
  16. LOL!!!!!!! :D
  17. Here is the screen shot
  18. The approach to Gelendzhik, runway 22 is incorrect. AI is crashing into the terrain.
  19. Be very scared, no matter what, flying on a CH-46!!!!!!! The Phrog mechs used to joke about the fact that there were airframes out on the flight-line that had bullet hole patches in them from Vietnam! Their replacement is long overdue. They should just replace them with more CH-53's! over 4500 shaft horespower per engine! Kicks A**! External loads over 36,000 pounds!
  20. It may be a little over exagerated, however, the chance that a CH-47 would be flying around far enough out to sea to land on a CVN is not that likely. I do agree that allowing helos to land on the carrier is good, until they creat LHD's.... but Army helos.... REDICULOUS! :horseback
  21. I am aware of that, I am just illustrating the argument. I worked on CH-53's for five years in the Corps. We rarely landed on CVN's. The only instance that I remember is when we were part of a west-pac and deployed on a LHD. We picked up mail for the carrier group and landed aboard the Stinson. MH-53's are not only for mine sweeping and often times are used for the Navy's heavy lift needs
  22. IRL (and I know that Lock-On is not) there are NO H-47's landing on Aircraft Carriers! The H-46 used by the Marines for medium lift capacity and used by the Navy for SAR, land on aircraft carriers. You wont find Marine H-46's on CVN's, the only helos that typically land on CVN's are MH-53's, MH-60's and H-3's. CH-53's CH-46's (soon to be replaced by V-22's) AH-1W's and UH-1N's are found on amphibious carriers LHD's and LHA's. IMO I think ED should remove the H-47's ability to land on ships. It falls along the same lines as the argument: the F-15 has an arrestor hook, why cant we land on ships? Here is a reference for those confused about the difference between S**thooks and phrogs http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/ch-467.htm
  23. Olgerd, Will ground units in 1.2 have the ability to use smoke grenades for cover? Thanks in advance. :p
  24. That Stryker is awesome!!!!!!!!!! :icon_supe I am in awe, cant wait to buy 1.2. Does anyone know how many of the ground vehicles they plan on updating? BTW you can see the smoke grenade launchers on the stryker. I wonder if they ground vehicles will be capable of providing smoke cover?? :horseback
