  1. U/M H-60........PJ version would be awesome for real CSAR/CADSEVAC/MEDEVAC type missions.
  2. Buy the M2000 for me and I will gift you my Mig 21
  3. THUD was designated to the F-105 by their drivers.....named after the sound it makes when it crashes, many lost due to controlled flight into ground. The official designation is Thunder-chief. "The WWII P-47 had been nicknamed the Hog, and the follow-on F-84 had become the Super Hog. It was quite natural then that the F-105 would get tagged with Ultra Hog. Transition problems resulting in "controlled flight into terrain" gave rise to the name Lieutenant-eater, but that didn't stick. No one really knows what direction the nickname might have taken but for television, Buffalo Bob Smith, and the Howdy Doody show. Howdy Doody, it was alleged, was the illegitimate son of a Strategic Air Command bomber pilot, and Howdy, assisted by Mickey Mouse, was now writing standardization manuals at HQ, USAF. Buffalo Bob Smith, many others contended, was the role model for any number of Air Force Generals, while Clarabelle the Clown trained USAF stan/eval officers. On the television show, intermittently making mischief with the villainous Mr. Bluster, was a bumbling, drooling, semi-evil Indian named Chief Thunderthud. It had a nice ring to it. Thunder THUD. Thud, as in the noise made by a large heavy object hitting the ground. So, the F-105 became the Thunderthud, and finally, in life and legend, just The Thud."
  4. Anyone at all willing to swap (my) mig 21 for (their) m2000?...Haven't flown it twice...dont like it. ROE for South Africa so bad now, the M2000 would have cost me same time last year (if it were available) R560.....now.....R1010...unaffordable but the most beautiful aircraft ever made. Lot of people will laugh out loud at this post....but just maybe there is someone interested. Taking a chance why not.
  5. Since 1.5.2 (upgraded from 1.2.6) my BS back.....awesome
  6. I want to go to Las Vegas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pick me, me lord..........please
  7. Really?........still no fix or decision/answer from ED about this. An official answer/explanation on/of this problem would be welcome about now. I really don't want to sound negative (like some neigh sayers around this forum) but can we have some feedback regarding this or a straight answer whether we should give up and just (not that easy for some) buy BS2 full version. Please ED we would appreciate that. Thanx.

  16. This morning there was an update and after that DCS (open Beta) just crashes whe mission in SP is busy loading.

  18. Downloaded beta, updated but when I try to run it I get this message "programme cannot start due to missing msvcr120.dll. What now?
  19. True but totally different environments.....development and growing crops.......I suppose it all depends on individual views of business practices as well. I dont agree with you necessarily but appreciate your point of view....good point.
