My tastes are somewhat modest  ;):



I'll put my filthy hands on this baby next week... and then maybe later, on this one:

Thats awsome history nef!

I grew up about 10km away from an air base during the time that we were still using phantoms heavily as well as older f16 and the new(back then) f15c, you could hear them on there tak off rolls from miles away and when they would fly over my house at about 1k i would jst get such a rush the huge engines would shake the street and buildings, you could see them at night when they lit there afterburners even at 10,000 ft+ , I loved visiting my uncle who armed f4s and getting to sit in the hot seat while the plane was bieng fuled. Strong memories. 

I think nothing can top this bird.





so powerfull and so deadly and only we have em :)

Maybe not the sexiest plane in the world by any stretch of the imagination, but I always liked the catalina.

Which version of MSFS are those shots from?
FSX

<S>...-Gixer

Not MSFS, Strike Fighters. Wing over Vietnam to be precise.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Good choice Nef. Can't tell you how many times I've been on Whidbey near Oak Harbor watching them take off and land.  I was really sad when the F-18 replaced the fleet.

I lived in VA Beach Twice, Pensacola FL, and San Diego as a child. Every where I went Navy Planes watched over me :) My first word was Jet.

It was a sad day when they F-18 replaced the A-6.

Have you seen Wings over Israel?

All the Add-ons are usually over the entire series. Online Play is non-existent though. Lots of fun none the less.
