Raven (Elysian Angel) Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Oh this was nice! Thanks for sharing! This reminded me of my own childhood dream of becoming a fighter pilot. Sadly, back problems prevented me from pursuing that dream, but at least now I have flight sims and my motorcycle ;-) Spoiler Ryzen 9 5900X | 64GB G.Skill TridentZ 3600 | Asus ProArt RTX 4080 Super | ASUS ROG Strix X570-E GAMING | Samsung 990Pro 2TB + 960Pro 1TB NMVe | VR: Varjo Aero Pro Flight Trainer Puma | VIRPIL MT-50CM2 grip on VPForce Rhino with Z-curve extension | Virpil CM3 throttle | Virpil CP2 + 3 | FSSB R3L | VPC Rotor TCS Plus base with SharKa-50 grip | Everything mounted on Monstertech MFC-1 | TPR rudder pedals OpenXR | PD 1.0 | 100% render resolution | DCS graphics settings

Greekbull Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 If you have Amazon Prime it's now on there for free :D. I've seen this of course a long time ago on YouTube I believe but I just watched it again in my theater room in HD with Surround sound and it was awesome!

Emmy Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Do some Google-ing on the story of Jay Consalvi. I think you'll be amazed... He's now a full-fledged Warbird pilot and Reno racer...

Lucas_From_Hell Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 SVTONY, don't fly the F-5 like you fly other fighters. Generally speaking using both ailerons and elevators together is like flying through mud, so keep the wings clean and combine rudder+elevator to point the nose where you need it to go. If the bastard is insistent, add some opposite aileron to pull a high-G roll and make that overshoot happen.
Southpaw Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Just wanted to resurrect this thread now that the F14 is released. I rewatched it today. Still free if you have amazon prime. i9-9900K@5GHz, 32GB RAM, RTX2080Ti FTW3 Ultra 11Gb vRAM
bonesvf103 Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 That documentary is classic. I have the DVD, got it when it came out. Jay's story is amazing...his callsign was Faceshot because when he was younger he actually got shot in the face. He survived it, and went on to being one of the last Tomcat pilots. I knew the RIO Faceshot had in the Iraq segment. Over the years though, Demo and I have lost touch. It would be nice to reconnect with him again, or Mango, who was his pilot for many years. v6, boNes "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day. I would have 80 pounds of flesh to eat and a pair of glasses to start a fire." --F/A-18 Hornet pilot
