  1. Its not that uncommon mistake, even landing on taxiways is not unheard of more often than not the pilot gets away with it, depends on lots of things, but a slow plane with a high tailwind componant is at the bad end of the scale....whereas a fast plane with only a moderate tailwind hardly notices the difference...she was prolly just nervous
  2. Apologies The above may not be true...seems you can use LUA for these functions..lua support is in lockon
  3. Good Games???? I thought BS was supposed to be out SOON, but it has gone VERY QUIET lately Devs......................some news would be great
  4. No..if you meant lockon interface..they must be supplying there own interface with the meters
  5. Did you allready format?..try booting in safe mode, if that dont work, then there are programs that will recover your data
  6. always plenty of laffs to be had at the patents archive
  7. Just the effect of cutting down the resolution...you see the same effect if you reduce the resolution on a still image..sort of banding ..as the gradiant between tones jumps in larger steps.. looks quite acceptable to me tho
  8. Yeh..comms break-up during game loading is quite normal in my experience Goya.....the 551/77 ..must have been seeing your posts here scrambled in my brain:doh:
  9. Umm do they have helmet mounted high off boresight system?...wouldnt that let it aquire a target even if the seeker couldnt yet see it? sorry if its silly question..im a frog man meself
  10. Starforce failed on my system some time ago.after a few emails back and forth customer support gave me a registry fix..it worked, but a month later I built a new system starforce failed again after 1 activation, tbh I havent even bothered trying to fix it this time Ill wait till bs comes out and try it, I'm hoping they fix starforce in b.s. Actually I would appreciate it if anyone has info re starforce being changed to to fix the dual core amd system problem as I feel a lot of people will get frustrated by the current remedy where you get a couple of emails telling you all the standard stuff before they realise what you are actually saying and give you the fix (maybe language problems come into play here) Anyway, you will find most people dont have a problem with it, this is just my experiance
  11. In UK its called a turn and slip indicator. In Russia, I dunno

  13. The vectoring nozzles are longer and larger in girth
  14. I think the met office must stick there thermometers in a fecking cave or something...My "in the shade" digital thermometer hit 39.2 at 4.00pm yesterday:furious:
  15. Oh noes:joystick:
  16. Fortunately, modern fighters with computer control systems actually have 3 or 4 independent systems, some I have heard basically take vote and the majority decision is acted on.......that could be a bit dodgy in a 4 computer system tho:megalol: I suppose it would be rare to get 2 out of 4 bad systems
  17. Yea..its for the radio compass
  18. Me mate had a db meter on his phone..it went up to 114 db..both the mig,superbug and b1 all went off the scale...the superbug seemed loudest to me..it was actually painfull when it pointed its tail your way The Mig display was awesome...a plane shouldnt be able to do stuff like that nice pics
  19. here is some more..hope you dont mind them in the same thread (seems pointless making a new one) The OVT rocked..2 rotations at 0 knots
  20. Hehe..I read that people actually position themselves there intentionaly..to experiance the thrill:pilotfly:
  21. Agreed..the aviation videos (the one kindred mentioned is worth getting for sure).. was the only good thing about the patrick website , apart from that its the most sucky aviation site I have seen I still think the mirages in chad video is amazing
