  1. It's cool mate, these things are horribly complex and you are juggling a lot of plates at the mo. And doing a bang-up job at it too!
  2. Does the line * Fixed Flight Manual mean flight model? because it sure flies more fun than before!
  3. Nope. Always at least one. Yay tomcat! w00t! \o/
  4. Longest damn hour I can remember lol (I blissfully forgot some other long hours, such as the birth of my son & daughter)
  5. Truth brother, truth. I am happy as a pig in the mud with the bird we're getting.
  6. https://forums.eagle.ru/calendar.php?do=getinfo&day=2019-3-13&e=72&c=1
  7. They sound like they are given much like pilot callsigns are given: plays on the names or histories of the ships. Forrestal had a terrible fire happening due to procedural errors. Hence handbook. George Bush Sr. flew TBM bombers in the war, hence avenger.
  8. That was an excellent pod, and makes my desire to fly the big ol' turkeybird even stronger. re. Cosmo's callsign I think he made a grave mistake not telling that story. Now every nerd on the internet is speculating. I'd say it has something to do with crossdressing, lots of makeup and the ready room.
  9. Heh, is that still happening? Anyway, congrats Heatblur on a rocking big module. Also congrats on rocking that perfect hype storm.
  10. As heard on the Fighter Pilot Podcast: Early A model tomcats had an off/on switch for the Direct Lift Control system (the spoilers). On landing they'd come in with their tail feathers spread, gear and flaps hanging out. And those boards would pop up, pop in pop up, pop in. Everytime they'd pop up, the wings would lose lift and come down, they'd pop in the wings bended up again. So a big, ungainly bird flapping its wings. Hence turkey. Happy turkey day y'all.
  11. At least its not just this forum. It's all of the internet. Common courtesy in discourse is something our grandparents did. Probably because they would punch someone if they were obnoxious, a luxury we netizens don't have.
  12. Its a gorgeous beast. I love it to bits. From the cozy pit to the gleaming 50's futuristic exterior. The power! The dakkadakka. Its just great. I am very happy with this and the prospect of future soviet aircraft from this team.
  13. Nice one guys, enjoyed the interview with BalticDragon. You guys are hitting your stride!
  14. But only in grey. I like my hogs green!
  15. Funny. Could you make a Euro1 80s hog green camo?
  16. It was, but gah what an annoying git.
  17. Hey BalticBro, I been banging my head against mission 13 (the one after the "whoa wtf is happening OMG!!" one) where you have to sanitize a target area in a valley for some choppers bringing in special forces. You get two wingmen and they have to anchor at two different points. It's a hard mission, and that's cool. The AI being utterly inept being a factor in that is less cool, but whaddayagonnado, right? Now the scripts not working, as in sometimes the wingmen never start their script, sometimes Overlord never does his thing, those are perhaps fixable. Could it be that the trigger zones are tight? Or are the time windows where you can press space shorter than before? why is it breaking?
  18. Well, it's more of targets than four PGMs can service. I got killed twice so far trying to gun ZSU-23 emplacements.
  19. now number 13 is hard even IF you manage to get the AI to engage :/
  20. So nyogel is not available in the .EU, what would be a good alternative?
  21. I hope its M 11!
  22. That one kicks ass doesn't it? It blew my mind! Didnt have any comms issues, and took me one do-over as I hadn't turned on the self defence stuff yet.
  23. These are damn near perfect. The only thing that would make them even better for me is a little grime along the edges of the transparencies like the MiG-21 has.
  24. I'm in an Oculus Rift, and these new textures are the bomb. Thanks!
  25. I am doing training mission 2, cold start. I have followed instructions and now the instructor tells me to turn up radio volume, press channel 2 then ask tower for startup clearance. Tower never answers. Is the radio configured wrong? The two switches above the volume control knob are down and up, but I tried all four permutations of switch positions for those two. None works! Halp?! Edit: Turns out the tower is on channel 1 not 2 as instructed.
