ya, i wish we had the 29K like we did in flanker. that was so cool. BTW, are these views consitered mods and cheating on other servers?

I agree, that's what makes (or made...) the F-14 so good.

I'm still not upgrading any time soon. Too expensive for something that has better looking desktop and such than XP.

Su-39? where'd that come from?

It does. do you know of any other incidents similar to this durring the cold war?

lol that was funny.

I dont know much about it my self. This is comming from memory, as i did reed a few chapters from some aviation books. I do know that the B model was just the A but with better engins. The D (I think) had even better engins, improver avionics. (maybe more powerful radar,) and an internal jammer. It's a shame it was discountinued... EDIT: Ok, heres a copy of a word document I wrote when I was board. Maybe it will help. F-14 Tomcat The F-14 Tomcat was created in the 70s along with it’s American counter-part the F-15 Eagle. The two planes share a similar twin air intake/engine and tail configuration. However, what separates these two are it’s roles and it’s pay load and max speed. The F-14 can reach speeds superior to any other fighter in existence. The F-14 was designed to achieve air superiority during carrier based operations, fulfilling it’s interceptor, and CAP (Combat Air Patrol) roles very well. It’s big secret: the AIM-54 Phoenix Long Rang Missile. This, combine with it’s Hughes AN/AWG-9 weapons control system, could lock on, track, and engage six targets at once from over 120 Km away, all at once. What also made this aircraft so valuable, was it’s ability to dogfight. If any aircraft got past the Tomcat’s AIM-54s then, they could continue to fight off enemy air craft with it’s cannon, AIM-9 Sidewinder, (IR Guided missile) and the AIM-7 Sparrow radar guided missile. The plane is also remarkable for it’s speeds which, as stated earlier, exceeding other operational fighter in existence. Here, it’s secret is it’s variable geometry wings. These swing out at slow speeds, when maximum lift is required and swing back when traveling fast and a high sweep angle is necessary. This allows the plane to achieve speeds in excess of Mach 2.5. The plane has served in the Balkans, Operation Desert-Storm in 1991, in Afghanistan and in Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003. While, there was never was a true F-14B, the 32 ‘As were refitted with new General Electric F-110-GE-400 engines and called the F-14B. The F-14D Features improved avionics, more powerful radar and a tactical jamming system. Of the 478 F-14As that were supplied to the US NAVY, 32 were converted the B model, 18 more to the F-14D and 37 new F-14Ds were made. The AIM-54, which could only be deployed by the Tomcat, was retired in 2004 and the F-14 it’s self was retired in the summer of 2006, Replaced by the navys only other carrier based fighter, the F/A-18 Hornet and F/A-18E Super Hornet.

We all have prefrences, they rightfully have theirs, though i dont think they have the rite to dis lockon because of their opinion, they could atleast respect it, solet them have it. we have our opinions. however, we dont go arround dissing their game. In short, i think we can take sanctuary in this fact.

God, they are so god damn biased!

does that water mod increase FPS if you were previousally using the "medium" stting?

My point exactally!

Why, are you getting vista?

God, that was insane! very scary though, if I were right there...

wasat? :huh:

Ya, landings are actually easy once you get the hang of it. just like RL. Ironhands site is also good for alot more than just the basics like landing and such, but it's a good place to start.

Ya, it's a mater of opinion. It really doesn't matter.

Ok, which demo. first, go to the options menu and map the commands to your stick. 'Q" deplays both chaff and flares. Insert does flares and delete does chaff (or visa versa... I forget...) And yes, the demo does suck. It does not do the game justice.

I agree. There is really nothing we can do. You can drop out of the falcon community. What do they say exactally?

Yes, It's a small community, but i good one. everyone is friendly. should you do something dumb online and some one yells at you, just apologize and explane and it won't matter. But welcome to the community, youll find your self comming back to these forums alot for questions and such. were always more than willing to help. Just a warning about lokcon. don't get it expectiong an easy game. It is one of the mose detailed and realistic simulators on the maket today, which translates into a very difficult game. (expect a year before you actually become "good." that's what I required.) but once you do get good, it's very satisfing. As for playing online, get Hyperlobby. It's the best place to find people online. And there are usually alot of people playing on the 6 or 7 dedicated servers (mostly on weekends) from all over the world. (which makes this community do unique) so flying online is never a problem. If you really like some group of people, you might want to joun a squadren. (which is the same as a BF2 clan)

I'm sorry guys. i don't mean to make my self a pain. I was busy last night, i'll do it today. (or altleast try.) Thanks for all your hepl. Design, Rep inbound for you.

SHOOT! why didn't I know all this before!

I'd like to, but i'm just 14. (nobody want's a teenager lol) and I dont know HTML (though i wouldn't mind learning.)

it does resemble the concore a bit lol

Ya, sorry, my conputer sucks. but i'm glad you like it. (overlooking the proformance issues ofcourse.) And I'm glad you liked the music. the tone definitaly fits, but the lyrics do not. oh well. and force feedback, wtf? :D well, tell me what you think when you do download it.

I had seen # 8 before. wat a stupid moron. try to fly with no experience what so ever! and what a waste of a sea hawk at the end! Kinda funny though, how that guy pushed it back over. EDIT: Oh, and there is this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MEaKcYV-E0&mode=related&search= (moron!)
