  1. These fellas drew the short straw, and had to man the AA battery that afternoon.... Tuff gig...
  2. You're up as being the LSO this morning, and you get dumbo here... I probably would've waved him off for coming in the wrong way.... 😁😆
  3. finally got the download, (took a bit of waiting for google). will try her out soon.
  4. Hornet, April 1942
  5. Kingman, AZ.... 😞
  6. Life is full of choices. Regardless, if it works for folks looking for a more simple flight sim bird, fine. I'm pretty hard core for wanting details, so I'd make a hard pass on these 3 modules. (I have them all already in the full fidelity versions). Agreed Sea S. Seems strange for their initial selection, you'd think they would've introduced something new. But then again, this is probably a quick turn for them (revenue and hopefully new users).
  7. when I saw, I thought the same thing. Must be the perspective of the photo. I wouldn't imagine the deck dipping down on the bow of a Carrier.
  8. Yep, flew the stars and stripes for a bit. Came across this. She's in Boston Harbor, January 1946
  9. further prep for the inaugural festivities... 😁
  10. could try your hand with this one.... 😁
  11. Indeed, true that!!
  12. would be cool to fly this bird.
  13. It is a hoot to fly! (borrowed a pic from the developer, since I can't take such good pics in VR)
  14. Stumbled on this, maybe another angle?
  15. couldn't resist, picked this up for MSFS 2020. About to jump in and go...
  16. I missed the Gin and Tonic Day (April 9th). But great to know, the Royal Navy solved the scurvy issue by adding lime and lemon to their gin... some wise words from the man...

  19. did a little more digging. a first post I saw said it damage sustained in the air (via combat), but here's the action report. It was damage due to a collision. Indeed, the Chief is gonna be really p*ssed now! 😁
  20. from what I came across, it did sustain that damage in flight and made it home. I'll see what more details I can find.
