Sea Serpent Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 LoL, to complete the mission, the flyover has to be right after 🎼 “and the home of the brave…” and then Whoosh, right at that moment! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea Serpent Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 During the sale, I also decided to get this plane. Its just a simple little jet, but judging by the constant refinements in the change logs, its a really solid simulation of an airplane. It isn't going to screw up your F-4 studies, either. It really is a wimpy jet, with an engine that sounds like a vacuum cleaner, not a jet. but it made for some fun flying this afternoon. I wanted to get it because I was very impressed with the Aerges Mirage, and the Aviodev team that makes this plane is a related team. Just like the two-seat Mirage, this one is also fun flying from the back seat. Here is me close to a bird 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Serpent Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 (edited) I don't know what it is about flying from the back seat of an airplane like this, but it wasn't as difficult as I would have thought, and its more fun than I expected. Maybe its the way it sounds, or something, and its more felt in the back seat, but it feels heavy, like airliner heavy. But its like the easiest aircraft you'll ever get "on speed" with the indexer. Also, the back seat sits high enough over the front, that the back even has its own independent gunsight, with very little view obstruction. This plane doesn't require a tremedous amount of brain power to operate, which is frequently welcome on my end, these days. Pretty cool fake aggressor scheme too.

Sea Serpent Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Now that I think about it, tomorrow they will probably release FC2024, wont they? I don’t have much interest in that myself, but it wouldn’t surprise me if graphical updates come to the FF Sabre, MiG-15, and F-5. I think they still look very good, inside and out, but they could always use an update. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea Serpent Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 “AI Ground. Added the ability for SAM to evade ARM (enabled by default, but can be disabled in Set Options - Evasion of ARM). Units that detect the missile will turn off their radar(s) and displace. Units that cannot move quickly will simply turn off their radar(s). The higher the skill level, the higher the likelihood that the air defence unit will react to the incoming ARM” Good to see they are giving the ground units some smarts, like this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

javelina Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 12 minutes ago, Skelthos said: High capacity is becoming more and more necessary. I'm running 2 4TB NVME drives right now and considering a 3rd... Indeed! I have 4x 2TB NVMe drives, with the O/S on a dedicated one. I have a 2TB SSD as well that I use as my "junk" drive for those Steam games I haven't played in a while. 🙂 At some point I'm sure I'll have to swap out some of the 2TB NVMe's for a much larger capacity system. But so far, having 10TB's of storage, I've been managing. 2 Quote MSI MAG Z790 Carbon, i9-13900k, NH-D15 cooler, 64 GB CL40 6000mhz RAM, MSI RTX4090, Yamaha 5.1 A/V Receiver, 4x 2TB Samsung 980 Pro NVMe, 1x 2TB Samsung 870 EVO SSD, Win 11 Pro, TM Warthog, Virpil WarBRD, MFG Crosswinds, 43" Samsung 4K TV, 21.5 Acer VT touchscreen, TrackIR, Varjo Aero, Wheel Stand Pro Super Warthog, Phanteks Enthoo Pro2 Full Tower Case, Seasonic GX-1200 ATX3 PSU, PointCTRL, Buttkicker 2, K-51 Helicopter Collective Control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 .... I remember when 1TB was furture proof. Then again I also remember people telling me that the compact disc was a flash in the pan.... The list of what I need when I eventually return to simming next year grows ever longer... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
