I can't even begin to tell ya'll how amazing it is to see this thing fly in person. First of all it sounds and looks wicked, but the whole high speed pass with a transition to hover is incredible!

I suppose it's a training shutter which make the flight cadet fly by his
skills.
Yup, we use them too. We call them "the bag" and they freakin suck. It's not specifically for night training, but I guess that falls under the scope of instrument flying. It takes away all visual references which makes up most of your bodies ability to judge motion and which way is up. When you fly under that thing, you get all sorts of illusions that make you feel like you are turning or pitching up, but you are really not. That way when the weather sucks and you are really in the goo, you will know to trust your instruments and not your body! Oh, and flying purely on the instruments is a pain in the ass and a tough skill to master so you wanna be good at it when the weather sucks.

Yup, it is a catchy tune.

The song is sabotage by the beastie boys. They totally doubled the film speed though! The footage is cool though.

The B-1 didn't crash, it had a ground emergency. We lose jets every once in a while throughtout the A.F., it is an inherently dangerous job (obviously). Some of the jets are really showing their age; thankfully we have good a maintenance program to keep em running. Some of the 38's I fly are 1961 tails! They are almost as old as my dad lol. Anyways, everyday just at Laughlin we have multiple in flight emergencies between the T-38s, T-1s, and T-6s (which are brand new by the way). So when you fly that many hours everyday, chances are something will break or go wrong!

Why does it freakin' matter where it was posted? Does that change the fact that someone great that all of you emulate had a tragic accident? I suppose it could've been posted in a "better" forum where you wouldn't have been inconvenienced by stumbling upon it and replying.

hot flight attendants, hot meals, and a bathroom.
Shep, I defiantly dig those.... but I like my afterburners :)
My T-1 buddies were laughing because they had to piss, and well, they unstrapped, went to the back of the jet, and pissed in the bathroom lol... I wish I could've done that a few times!
-
Yeah, well I have to post that to make up for the un-coolness of my sim setup lol. It is pretty plain. I get my kicks in the aircraft now and all the cool upgrades I wanted for my pc kinda fell by the wayside :)
-
I still like mine the best :)
out with the old....
in with the new

my boss is leaving next week to go back to a-10's, lucky bastard... hopefully Ill be there with him in 2 yrs!

can you still find EECH anywhere? I heard there are some GREAT community mods out.....

I guarantee the F-22 has a higher top speed then mach 1.8+ reguardless of what is publicised. It would be naive to believe that lie...
Exactly.... in fact, no one here knows the top speed of the F-16, F-15, etc. just to prove a point. For those who don't think the Raptor is all that and a bag of chips, well, you really are mistaken, because it is. In SO many ways ya'll can't even imagine. This goes for everything... from sensor(s), to systems, to engines, to construction to even fixing the damn thing. This isn't some "American propoganda," and I know I can't say much, but you don't want to mess with it. I know I am going to catch crap for this, but there is nothing the Russians, Brits, or anyone else has that can rival it, and a clear indication of that is that we are not interested in selling it. Oh, and much can be said of the F-35 also. That is one truly amazing aircraft to boot.

ok so where do you buy or d/l it?

Welcome to the sport of wasting time on the forums, like the rest of us :D
Haha cheers!
But one thing that is common to us all is that we like to share interesting reading.True that....

holy crap the freakin a-10s keep spanking my ass lol

Wow I think we've hit an all-time low. Not to rain on anyone's parade, but who the F@($ cares about this shit anymore. The dude has accomplished exactly what he wanted to: start crap with people and get their panties in a wad. No one here is a real flighter pilot. Common sense and declass info aside, no one has access to the real missile data. Some of ya'll obviously have a good idea of what ya'll are talking about, but look this dude isn't worth the effort. On the flip side, you guys are starting to sound rediculous arguing with him. I know I'm laughing at everyone at this point, and if I brought some of the other guys from my REAL fighter squadron in here, they would be laughing their asses off at all of ya'll arguing. At this point, this thread which was a plea for help on a completely unrelated topic is ruined. Why the hell doesn't everyone just shut the hell up, boot up LockOn, and go play the dang GAME. Yes, I said it, have fun playing the GAME!!! That is what we are here to do right? Enjoy the thrill of simulated flight?

Holy crap I will give you my commanders number and I will let an experienced Eagle driver tell you how he and his Ealge buddies walk all over F-14's. THey have a name for them.... I think they called the tomcat's grapes or something like that, cause they were a big juicy targett.

Dude, if you can wait for BS you can wait for this!

just read the articles:chair: : Launch should be March, Availability one month later (Just in Time for Black Shark)
Yeah yeah I know i did! I've read a lot of articles but ever sing one seemed to give a different date.
As far as the foot long card, that apparently is the OEM version for system builders and I am guessing serious useres (like CGI renderers?) The retail version which I am assuming is for us is only 9"

I'm a little ocnfused... why do you want to be able to see through them at close range???

Hey AJ when I took my jet engine design class we used a book called Jane's All the Worlds Engines (i think that is what it was called). It has a WEALTH of very detailed information on every jet ever made (I'm not joking). It has pictures and specs, and I would trust it over any o ther source. It is a huge volume and they put out a new one every year. A large local library might have a copy, but your best bet would be a university library that has an engineering department. You might be able to visit Jane's online and get info from there ( htink it costs money though). You might find some white papers online that you can buy too... I think there is a website that has a collection of declass Pentagon papers you can buy. But honestly I would start with the Janes over anyhting else.... Hope this helps...

I htink I can't wait for it to co me out. I hope it will fit in my MicroFly case lol!!! It is supposed to kick the crap outta the 8800! anyone know when it should be out?

Those are not hog studs in the A-10 pipeline. They are UAV weenies. They use the desktop trainer for familiarization purposes (HUDs, sensors, etc.)
