Pocket Kings Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) Hey guys, how about a humble but effective Jeff driver? Do you have some kind of open night to join applicants onto one of your servers? Unfortunately your form doesn't have an "other" checkbox under the airframes category, which may be beneficial for you and applicants.

We aren't currently recruiting for the Jeff at this time, but we do have a few members that dabble with it. Do you fly any secondaries, or just a Jeff main?

Pocket Kings Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I'm in the process of building a cockpit, currently working on the UFCP and the screens. Second part will be the radio and the avionics button box. So yes, mainly driving the Jeff. However I plan to pick up one of the more common airframes if we get an easter sale. I'm still not sure which one. Coming from the Jeff, I'm really used to 98% of systems working. I somehow refuse the notion of "forever beta products" and not fixing glaring bugs, while at the same time working on a model of a pilots' body and boots. Seriously? How long has the F/A-18 been out? But, that's just me I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
