  1. Correct. The term is meaningless in this context.
  2. Nellis seems to be a special case, the ATC never changes runway in use at Nellis.
  3. It wasn't so long ago that even taking photos of the F-35s rear end was prohibited, I guess the copy cats already have that information now. What kind of marketing moron came up with that rediculous, jingoistic "powering freedom" slogan, hello, the 1950s called, they want their mottoes back.
  4. Italians love their paintjobs.... https://theaviationist.com/2017/06/27/here-are-the-worlds-first-f-35a-lightning-ii-stealth-aircraft-with-special-tail-markings/
  5. Su-33 is looking great and with those extra bits of fidelity I might have to take her for a spin once she gets updated, it's been a long time.
  6. @mvsgas, I am not sure about the Italian and Japanese ones, but as far as I know the the RAF, Dutch and raaf came home for air shows and test deployments but then flew back to the training pool in the US.
  7. Definitely, only country I know of that has F-35s permanently at home is Israel and they only have 5. All the other countries that have ordered and received F-35s keep them in the training pool at Luke AFB.
  8. It has been like that for a long time.
  9. Do you know what the vector of this is? Email? Good find.
  10. Oh, I thought there might be an Orion module coming, then I saw those dirty fighters....
  11. An interesting story from a glider pilot who flew on d-day. http://www.warbirdsnews.com/warbird-articles/veterans-story-flying-fabric-piloting-plywood.html
  12. Sceptical here too, but would love to see it happen.
  13. Interesting information, thanks.
  14. That's not a problem, I will keep buying them because I like having early access, supporting the devs and helping to find bugs. I do agree that Chizhs quote more likely means hope to have 2.5 out this year, rather than it definitely will be, but I am not a native Russian speaker.
  15. Yes, you need bonus dollars to be able to get the full discount value.
  16. I hadn't heard of the 'green glow" before, but apparently a fix is on the way. https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/paris-rockwell-collins-prototypes-fix-for-f-35-gre-438687/
  17. Thanks for sharing, I love the Ted talks and this is right up my alley.
  18. According to flight global the F-18E squadron on Bush is the tomcatters so at least that part of the aviation geek story may be incorrect(the war is boring story doesn't say what aviation geek says it does either, may have changed). https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/paris-syrian-shoot-down-marks-first-kill-for-supe-438430/
  19. Yes, once you reach 0 you automatically get another one after 30 days.
  20. Log into your account on the ED website and your keys should all be there. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/personal/order/
