  1. "All that hate's gonna burn you up, kid" - The Colonel "It keeps me warm". - Mike Wolverines!!!!!!!!!
  2. Why stop at Poland, SW Asia and Eastern Europe should all be included as well. Pakistan, India,Afgahanistan....hell even the US....I'd love to play a Red Dawn Campaign.
  3. Call me a sick addicted junkie, I would purchase a "Snoopy vs the Red Baron if DCS built it.
  4. Waiting for my Ipad to be delivered now...I have big plans for that puppy, checklists, maps, notes, AARs and with Ghost Unit's Ipadpit I can use it for as a MFD input device. Thus creating the uber-kneepad
  5. Great photos, reminds me of sitting behind the .50 cal on a Humvee in Delta Force Black Hawk Down taking out techies....I can only imagine how much more fun it would be in an A-10.
  6. Lol now i understand...yeap that could be a problem
  7. I've said this before and I'll say it again. Flight is tough enough without "bird strikes". The difference between getting hit by a dove and a Berkut eagle is vastly different. "Unless a nation straps a Sparrow missile onto a pigeon and trains it to dogfight I say just make the birds "eye candy".
  8. As an ex-Army Air Traffic Controller I agree 100% with Cat 101st. Getting a T/O clearance before you hit the runway is problematic, most controllers do not want to give up that last minute ability to check the situation before giving a clearance. You'd be surprised at what happens between "taxi to and hold short of runway X" and "cleared for takeoff". Overturned cups of Starbucks, and mis-tuned radios/navaids have delayed a lot of T/Os causing a @$#! load of problems on the active.
  9. At the moment I'm running 32-bit Vista, but I'm switching to Win 7 64. Just wondering if I should run a duel boot system, is it necessary? I've heard x64 has some problems with older games? The game runs well but I get an occassional crash, which I think is due to Vista. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance to anyone kind enough to offer an opinion.

  10. This is brillaint, I just purchased a Ipad with thoughts of using it as a knee board, for checklists and maps....this is much better. Now I just have to contain my excitement until UPS sends me the IPad. Thanks again.
  11. I agree with all the above except the whole "bird strike" thing. To have it happen once would be interesting, but after that its just another way to destroy an aircraft. I have enough to worry about from small arms, shoulder-fired missiles, Sams, air to air missiles and more importantly my own incompetence. Having my multi-million dollar aircraft downed by "Daffy Duck" sucked into my intake 1/2 mile from the target area would drive me effing insane, or rotor strikes on a Berkut eagle, Jesus life is difficult enough, if you're going to program in random death and destruction, why not add wire-strikes, lightning strikes, heart attacks while in high G turns, the list is endless. Unless some nation straps a Sparrow on a pigeon and trains it to dogfight, I say just make the birds eye-candy.
  12. F-15 It may be getting a little long in the tooth, but its still the heavy weight champion of the world. However it's not our turn so...now I'm assuming the mud-moving theme is over for a while, at least until the MI-24 comes out. So having said all that I have to select (insert drumroll here) Mig-31 or JF-17
  13. Buy it you won't regret it, I'm using a Saitek 290 purchased from Walmart for $19.95 and having a great time.
  14. If I could I'd get the ground crew to weld them in place.
