  1. What are the chances of getting a repaint of the Huey in the current USAF HH-60G scheme? Please! :music_whistling:
  2. My god that's stunning! I must keep up with the Mig-21 progress more closely.
  3. Nice vid! The slo-mo shots were very cool. Cheers.
  4. The most comprehensive F35 avionics/cockpit video I've seen so far. Looks really enticing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2CXB3UZq24
  5. Thought I'd post a couple of old images of interesting RAAF Hornet loadouts. Trials of the ASTER (Advanced Staggered Triple Ejector Rack), never seen since to my knowledge: And an ARDU (Aircraft Research and Development Unit) Hornet with rainbow coloured Mk-82s.
  6. I can't exactly help you but I got a good laugh from the thread title!
  7. Thanks! It's just a skin but a good one at that: http://www.lockonfiles.com/files/file/2393-fa-18c-fuel-tank-texture/
  8. Finally got around to testing Aussieboy's RAAF 75SQN skin in the sim, here are some shots:
  9. Please forgive me, I always love an excuse to post that meme. :D Was that during a 'combat' (rather training) sortie though, or just for the ferry flight to/from the exercise? When the Hawgs deploy around the globe they always seem to take external tanks and travel pods but what interested me about these pics is that they were testing them for use during combat sorties.
  10. Awesome, thanks Snoopy!
  11. Great news, glad to see ED acknowledging your awesome work!
  12. Probably not news to many of you but I thought I'd post this nonetheless: Interesting to see they're trying to lengthen the legs of the Hawg. The types of COIN sorties they fly these days in A-stan with multiple trips to the tanker must finally be getting reviewed. How about that loadout too! From the Warthog News Facebook page: "An A-10C Thunderbolt II from the 40th Flight Test Squadron, moves down the runway at Eglin AFB, Florida. The aircraft is loaded up with weaponry to test the combat carriage limits of the Sargent Fletcher external fuel tank. The A-10 flight personnel are testing to ensure the A-10 can carry the tank into a combat environment safely. If proven to be safe to carry, the tank will add up to 60 minutes of flighttime to its combat sortie. (U.S. Air Force photo by Samuel King Jr.) Note: Pictured is A-10C 81-0989 from the 40th Flight Test Squadron, 46th Test Wing (ACC), Eglin AFB, Florida. Date of shot isn't mentioned in the original photo caption. But according to this photo's official U.S. military VIRIN code and also to EXIF data, it should be taken August 14, 2013."
  13. Thanks Aussieboy!
  14. Hey Aussieboy, great work on these RAAF skins - I love 'em! I completely missed this thread but found the 3SQN downloads in the User Files when I was aimlessly browsing today. Do you have any plans to complete the 75SQN bird?
  15. Love your work, thanks guys!
  16. Awesome, love the AAAVN blackhawk scheme. What mod is that?
  17. Looks like a sweet mission, I like the COP. Is this mission available for download?
  18. Awesome paint and nice video Wichid!
  19. TAS plus wind velocity is equal to your GS which is why the chart gives you TAS. Flying the AoA is the safest bet, I doubt that even the real guys do full on landing computations when they're recovering to large runways at an AFB.
  20. Great idea! Seems like this should be a feature request.
  21. I remember an old flightsim forum which has a screenshot comp that worked well. It was topical but had two differerent sections. One for unedited shots and one for edited. At the end of the month a poll was posted with everyone's names as options and people voted for the picture they liked most. The award was simply to have the screenshot placed prominently on the website (unlike to happen here I realise) and that the winner could select the topic for the next months comp. Cheers.
