  1. I'm hoping the Cs and Ds will carry along with the naval variants. The C wasn't much different from the B anyway.
  2. lol... The MiG never seems that way when I fly it.
  3. I figure it'll be similar to the Viggen's RB 05A. Hopefully less twitchy. Yeah, I know... Tanks probably aren't the best targets for these.
  4. I'm happy Bullpups are on the way...
  5. I got to see a Zipper fly in person a couple times. The first time was visiting my aunts in Arizona. We were near Luke AFB and a couple flew past and banked away. They were USAF marked Gs. Last time was at Oshkosh some years back. One was doing a demo. It did a fast pass over the runway and zoom climbed from there. After a few seconds, it just "vanished" and I could no longer see it. Amazing to lose sight of it so quickly. My eyes weren't that bad either.
  6. Those of us of that age remember the "Golden Days" of the 90s where all sorts of stuff came out. Chuck Yeager's air combat was probably the first one where I could really dogfight in. Screwing around with the A-6s DIANE in Flight of the Intruder brings back more memories. My friend and I would be side by side at the keyboard - one flying and the other targeting. I remember be amazed at the cutting edge feeling of Falcon 3.0. Looking back, I can only cringe nowadays. We've got it good now.
  7. I'm going to pack as many CBUs on this as I can and dump them in one go.
  8. Everything seems to run good now. Thanks for the help.
  9. Yeah, that's the case. I'll try removing the 2nd stage. Thanks.
  10. Hi, I'm having issues using 'winders. when I pull the trigger, often two of them will cut loose at once. Usually one doesn't guide at all. Occasionally, if I tap the trigger lightly, I can get one to fire, but often not. I'm using the good ol' Warthog setup for throttle and stick. Is there a switch somewhere I'm missing I need to flip? Thanks
  11. Does multi-threading still use the same "alternate" executable? Thanks.
  12. I'm definitely getting both. Already pre-ordered the Mudhen. I like cold war stuff. and technically the F-15E was developed at the end of it. The way my wife spends money, I can justify an occasional $50 for something.
  13. I've been pretty happy with this patch. The fan in my 2080 card would rev pretty high when this game was run. Now it doesn't at all, which is nice. Some graphics glitches. In the F2 view, sometimes the plane will be distorted and shoved into the side of the screen. Sometimes, but not always.
  14. Nice, I used to go up and watch the MN ANG F-4s all the time. Night takeoffs were always cool. They did have one Mig killer in the group.

    F-15E vs. F-18C

    I always thought the F-101 was beautiful.
  16. With slicks, I've been setting the sight to about 160 mils. I try to keep the dive at 30 degrees and release around 4,000 ft. Juggling this around it's hard to watch my airspeed too, so it can get a bit variable.

    F-15E vs. F-18C

    Definitely looking forward to this. Plus it looks like we're getting a kickass manual with it too. Something to start me off until "Chuck" saves the day. F-18 seems to have the easiest to run Mavericks of all the planes. Don't know if the Strike Eagle routinely carried them.
  18. And here I am, just breaking 300.
  19. Wife won a bunch of money playing Bingo Last weekend and slipped me a hundred. Emergency F-4 funding.
  20. Thanks Flap. Surprised nobody noticed this before.
