  1. http://planecrashinfo.com/1980/1980-14.htm http://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/wiki.php?id=33292 http://www.flightglobal.com/FlightPDFArchive/1981/1981%20-%201213.PDF Lost one rotor blade. Sudden free fall. Screams on radio heard by all others nearby helicopter pilots (Bacia de Campos, Brasil, offshore oil production).
  2. Comanche 2 (Novalogic) and Su-27 1.5 SCE. and Su-27 1.5 SCE.
  3. My experience with facetracknoir and FC2: Installed faceAPI. Installed facetracknoir V1.30 plus Update4_20101103. Tried the TrackIRFixer, but it said "cannot find code to modify". Go to my bed very frustraded... Next night, runned facetracknoir, set to faketrackir. Run LOMAC 1.02 (older program, may be it is compatible, who knows). It worked! But i didn't made any tunings in facetracknoir. Next, run FC2 (last patch), and it works again! Cannot zoom in/out in the cockpit by the keyboard anymore. Using keypad 0 to see instrument panel. Joystick hat switch stopped to. A little slow to move view from one side to another. No up/down movement. I need to fine tune it tonight (may be monday night, tonight is beer night!). My system: W7HP-64; Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83 GHz; Nvidia 9800GT 1Gb (SX98GT1024D3GVP); 2 x KVR800D2N6/2G 2GB 256M x 64-Bit DDR2-800; Samsung SyncMaster T240M LCD.
  4. No manufacturer yet. It's a prototype, made by ... "nerds":joystick:
  5. Go to 3'30". No english subtitles; http://video.globo.com/Videos/Player/Noticias/0,,GIM1415834-7823-NERDS+APRESENTAM+SUAS+INVENCOES+NA+CAMPUS+PARTY,00.html
  6. There's a patch for fixing the sound in Windows XP (may help for Vista, also): http://www.reisun.org/?p=28
  7. Some surprising (for me, at least) info about the Phantom, in "Where Have All the Phantoms Gone?" from Air & Space magazine. ( http://www.airspacemag.com/military-aviation/Where-Have-All-the-Phantoms-Gone.html ) ... Control sensitivity varies widely. It takes full aft stick to raise the nose for takeoff, yet at certain fuel loadings and at speeds just above Mach 0.9 at low altitude, moving the stick only one inch can produce 6 Gs on the airframe. At above Mach 2, on the other hand, the shock wave that is created moves the center of lift so far aft that pulling the stick all the way back produces only about 2 Gs. (Any flight sim doing this? :joystick:) ... The commander of the 82nd Aerial Target and Recovery Squadron, which conducts the drone shootdowns, is Lieutenant Colonel J.D. “Bare” Lee. A former F-16 pilot, Lee also has 1,500 hours in the Phantom. He still recalls the first time he took to the air in one. “I was shocked at how much more difficult it was to fly than I thought it would be,” he told me. “When I got home, I told my wife, ‘I think I just traded in a Porsche for a ’72 Cadillac.’ ” ... The drone launch order was soon passed, and the operators got the Phantom rolling. LaCourse made a correction to get the aircraft precisely on centerline as both afterburners lit. Fifteen seconds later, I watched the pilotless aircraft take off. The F-4 proceeded out over the gulf. The first aircraft fired its missile. The ground controller monitoring the telemetry radioed the air crews: “No hit.” The Phantom flew on. My emotions tangled: I wanted the aircraft to survive, but I also wanted it to fulfill its intended mission. The four F-22 Raptors spread out. Each launched a missile. Over the radio we heard “Fox-four”—all shooters had fired. Then: “Splash.” A direct hit. Brackin and I walked back to the van and got in. Brackin was staring straight ahead. Then he turned to me. “So now you know,” he said, grinning. “It takes four Raptors to kill an F-4.” :clap: :book:

  11. DCS - new name? The acronym DCS appeared in the intro movie of Flanker 2, standing for Digital Combat Series. The movies, although present in bik format, were dehabilited by the 2.5 patch. With a software, you could convert them to avi format, and when playing Flanker 2.51, the movies appeared again. The "old school" guys probably know all these things.
  12. May be they had to change the canopy between different aircrafts: lack of spare parts:cry:.
  13. Obvious MadCat if full of reason, but Orkut Communities are everything but serious:megalol:... Another member from that community had posted this photo twice, and twice it was deleted by the moderator: For what reason a moderator would reject a photo of original software? It's up to you find what force drives this moderator :thumbup:
  14. Surely not! But what about KA-50 (aka Black Shark)? It's this type of chopper:thumbup: I was talking about! " "DCS: Black Shark" "DCS: Black Shark" is a PC game of the Russian Ka-50 attack helicopter and is the first title in a new Eagle Dynamics and The Fighter Collection simulation series: "Digital Combat Simulator" (DCS) "
