Great clip! The flares by the second one were a nice touch!

They weren't barrel rolling...they were heading back to the fight!

ATTACK!

Great find Dutchy.
I assume (but given that assumption is the mother of all f**k ups, its probably not a good idea) that the dents seen on most Hogs are from hairy AAR sessions?

IIRC, that's 30mm Jr's bird, during his last deployment. (For the first two \"customers\").

Paul, nice shots, man I wish I had the time and money (new puter) to play this sim... it looks like a blast!

How about a few close-ups of the nose art you have going on there.

The lights on the top and bottom of the A-10 fuselage are only used at night...and hardly ever used anymore with pilots wearing NVGs.

Thanks Coach....I don't think they have the exterior NVG lights working, at least in multiplayer we haven't gotten them to work (can't see them with NVGs on).

Dice...here are a couple pics of my nose art and door art...

Thanks! Since we can't have real nose or door art figured I'd make sure mine in the sim look good :D

If you have any failed systems/damage and shut down you get repaired, a few panels open and them you're good to go.

I wasn't talking about the NVG lights, I was referring to the AAR nacelle light and the formation lights.

I got ya...I don't use them often only when flying with a wingman and normally only on takeoff and final...

Plus, the NVGs in game aren't that great...

Great likeness, although you may get a visit from the 'tailcode police' for the Nellis/Osan combination :P

LOL...there is a reason for that...the V Squadron I fly with choose the 25th as their squadron and the only US base that is being modeled is Nellis...so I suggested this skin, a combo of both.

I only have limited experience of PC flight sims mainly because the computers I've had over the years haven't had much 'puff'
My dalliances with Combat Flight Sims 1,2 and 3 and Pacific Fighters always followed the same pattern, I shunned combat in favour of lengthy and hair raising solo demo's over the airfield....the type that would have a CAA enforcement officer racing for his rule book in real life.
These latest sim's look great, I doubt if I have the same discipline you have prkii to follow a mission through to the end without some flying under bridges buffoonery :shock:

I'll say it... If you're not in a plane (in the sky), are you really a pilot?
