  1. I'm sorry Mikoyan but isn't Fat Albert taking off just like any normal C-130 taking off? And my take on this airshow was that the trick was to come on Friday before the show. Free admission, less crowds and you still get to see the performances. Needless to say the Blue Angels put on an excellent show Sunday but I will say that the Brazilian Smoke Squadron, Mike Goulian, and Sean Tucker put on what I would say even greater performances. I also thought the day after (monday) watching everyone leave the base, main attraction being the B-52 and the two armed F-16s before him all with the KPSM ATC running in the background, was the coolest part. Really just throwing that out there for future shows. Lastly I just have to say nice work on the shots Pole Cat those are really nice.:thumbup: Lastly, lastly: no that is a B-25... only about 30 left of the thousands and thousands built. Kinda Cool!
  2. Thank You for that RogueRunner! Incredible to see and hear all the goings on up there on the carrier deck. I also like his description :lol:...Interesting to hear how a pilot thinks about those things. Anyways, I really don't think you'll here things quite that immersive but I do think I heard somebody from the ED crew saying that all the sounds sounded very good and entirely genuine (it was in response to someone saying that the APU sounded like the Black Shark's). Someday :rolleyes:
  3. I also believe they'll be modelling the KC-135 instead of the current KC-10 re-fuelers.
  4. This is a shot from an article at SimHQ. Hopefully this is what you're looking for in terms of a general GUI. If not, at least I can say I tried. ;) By the way, video looks great. At certain points I felt I did sort of agree with Waldo but most of the time I felt like I could figure out what was going on. I could just do like I did in the Black Shark and think about it, experiment and finally recognize the most efficient start up. Nonetheless cool to see Nevada terrain and how to start up the new Hog.
  5. I guess this is just as well a format as before, but that said what was wrong with the old format?
  6. DCS: Black Shark or FC2 or just LO:FC?
  7. I'm not sure but I heard from someone on the forums that it will be a little more GPU heavy than CPU heavy as opposed to Black Shark and FC2. Probably something to do with the new grass.
  8. Wow cool Jalal. That screenshot looks pretty awesome too hopefully we'll see more coming up in July!
  9. not to bask to heavily on this RC model, but... it's for sale! Maybe a little more practice for the hardcore Flanker pilot. (joking) more seriously though, if you look into how much work this man put into this plane (some four years) it is quite astounding. Anyways, all I have to add :)
  10. tic tac tic tic tic tac tic tic tic tic tic... many seconds to go, though you are right, Poko, we near ever closer to the next DCS release. I may suggest to you that a watched pot never boils... mid July is 6-7 weeks away, in other words there's a whole lot of water to boil.
  11. Hope no one minds a Black Shark shot, but all my FC2 ones aren't as pretty as this:
  12. Cool GA nice shot. Just saw your LOP video and must say you did nice work there also. You're good at what you do, keep it up ;)
  13. Sweet guys, Thank you!
  14. Beautiful. Absolutely wonderful work what you have here. Looks better than I could even imagine terrain alone (without trees or structures) could ever be. Very good!
  15. Right, I understand. You were in response to me correct or am I responding in misunderstanding? If you were responding to me they were merely suggestions.. things I'd like to see. Hopefully Im not sounding too defensive and hopefully I haven't responded to a post not towards me :doh: EDIT: As I contemplate what you may mean (and not make myself look silly) I wonder if you are trying to further clarify yourself. Perhaps I have OCD and need to let it go! :unsure:
  16. Speaking of mods to airbases, I'm waitin for A-10C to see this (from simhq.com): Besides the fact that I can't wait for this sim, I'm trying to hint at a possible grass feature in airbases, taxiway signs, and new buildings with greater detail. Not being a Modmaker (someday likely)I figured I'd throw out some ideas to those who do deal with this.
  17. ^^^How I've avoided them: As these SAMs are or seem to be very much linked to the radar system, as soon as you see/hear a launch, dive so that you're really as low as you can go. At that point you should not be visible to the SAM radar system and the missile will explode.That's how I've done it and I've done 11 missions so it should work fine for you. Also, the ECM pod (activated with "E") should help but it seems hit and miss to me. Hope I could help ;) EDIT: thought I could respond before Viper, but the SAMs I assumed you were talking about were the BUK ( I believe that's what they are...). Once again, what I do for those BUKs is to stay low to avoid lock to begin with and if you do get launched upon, dive
  18. Yes, I do mean like that. I honestly had no idea but it makes sense that someone has done it. So does this come with the model or can it apply to all supersonic aircraft?
  19. I've always thought it would be really cool to see some of this in Lockon: [YOUTUBE] <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> [/YOUTUBE]

  21. Ooooo that looks like fun. :pilotfly:However I'd like it more in the Ka-50 or A-10C :music_whistling:
  22. Through 9 pages now I hope this wasn't already posted but there's a bug with the Tornado. When it parks the afterburner still appears to be lit:huh: Hope I didn't re-post this...
