Jane's F-15 had the same bug at one point.

Is it really $20 USD??

EBgames here in canada eh has it for $14.99 (bout 12 USD mebbe less), tho some stores have it for $64 lol

About that comm building...

If ya can't spot it from 10,000 ft...  

In reality did the attackers have to make a sight seeing low alt pass to find the target first?
I don't have everything set to hard, but I have the gfx maxed and find it very difficult to find anything on the ground without my cute little red box...  try spotting vehicles... geeeeez!

Not tried MP yet Funked but I'd be willing to give it a go, hopefully patch 2 be out real soon.  I kinda get the impression we will see it before the end of June.

Think SimHQ and Biohazcentral have the most active forums.


If ya read the readme, there are some probs with ATI cards at the moment.  Not sure if they are being resolved with SP2 or not...

Been out of town, so I'm a little late on this thread.

Actually these planes should be stalling a lot EASIER than the planes in AH.  Yes they have a higher thrust to weight ratio, but also have incredibly higher wingloadings and very very thin wings that are optimized for supersonic speed.  The F-4 Phantom is a brick that flies ;)

Emptygun, was the A4 skin a user made one, or one of the production ones? Because the markings around the cockpit are wrong.

Hmmm... massively multiplayer 60's & 70's jet combat sim.   So you guys are interested in that? ;)  Maybe I can whip something up!! :p
