Agreed! They need new jets, badly. I never tire of watching them though, elegant as always.
It's a lovely paint Gajit, thanks for sticking with it. :)

This has been a very illuminating discussion so far, and I've enjoyed reading all the replies. Like many others I have my "full realism" days and my "hit ctrl-e and go" days. I find the challenge of...
Congrats Ben. :) It's the most special of all flights, and indeed you'll remember every second of it with a smile.
Cheers.

Hehe, thanks Dimus. Feels like a lifetime ago that I made that. I guess two and a half years could be considered a lifetime in FS terms though. :)
-Mike
Thanks very much. :) Again good shots. Second one is definitely my favourite.
-Mike
Nice shots. :)
I noticed the cockpit was black in the L-39 though, probably a texture.cfg fallback path issue. If you copy the file L39Ext11.dds from one of the default paints into your repaint's...
Hi Cag. Indeed the Mig-29 is my next project, specifically the G model (which is a Luftwaffe modified A model) to start, and possibly others. Whether I will have a carrier capable K model or not as...
Got a tiny remote controlled Davinci ornithopter, which I am rubbish at flying, but I plan to improve. :)

Thanks mate, glad you like it. Chuck is a fantastic guy and was really generous with his time in helping me fine tune the handling and performance, and showed a heck of a lot of patience with me by...
Awesome post Nick, you summed up my reasons for building her in one sentence. :) It's that very situation which I find most enjoyable in FSX, simply flying for its own sake, with friends, no...
Your wish is my command, hehe. :)
Currently in the R&D phase, and will take some time as it's quite a complex bird, but hopefully within a year...
Cheers,

Well it's been many many years now since I've been out that way, last time I landed there was in 2003, so I'm not a good one to ask for up to date reference material. As I remember it though, about...
Looks great! I have so many fond memories flying into Fort Langley. Did the first half of my PPL training at Boundary Bay in Cherokee 140s and that little grass strip is a favourite for short/soft...
Agreed! :)
Funny thing I find with any kind of hip hop in FS videos too is that while it doesn't work very often, when it does work, it really works.
Myself, I like something both high tech and...
6297J, thanks, and I agree with your points. I'm not really into hype and I'm utterly terrible at it anyway. I'd be the world's worst marketer. :) I may post a screenshot here and on my blog from...
Yup, it's true hehe. Thanks James, and merry christmas to you as well.

Thanks guys. When I have something worth showing I certainly will. At the moment I have a blob for a model, and several very large and bewildering code textbooks in front of me. She's just a wee bit...
Hi Naki. Can you send me the aircraft.cfg file you're having trouble with, including your repaint entries in it? I'll have a look. Can send it to lotus@lotussim.com
Also if you're having problems...
Thanks very much Rezabrya, glad you're still enjoying it. :) As for the Mig, I consider it the logical successor to the L-39 since the Albatros was designed specifically to get pilots ready for the...
Thanks David and Bernt. :)
Anatolpopov, yes another plane is planned, and I'm just in the baby stages with it right now, but I'm 99% sure it will be a MiG-29G (plus possibly other variants). It's...
Sometimes I think it isn't the effects code that's broken but possibly the model handling itself. I think that's the same reason that wind can 'push' your eyepoint around in the cockpit even if you...
FS-Vex...
...but only when I'm not outright cursing at it or threatening it with deletion.
Why isn't this bit working? SDK says it should... stupid SDK!
Love is funny that way. :)

I can personally vouch for Harleyman's second link, the Coolermaster HAF 932. I just got one a week ago, and it's absolutely brilliant, one of the most elegant internal and external designs I've ever...
Jmig, thanks for registering. I activated your account. The reason you couldn't see the forums immediately after registering is that I require all members there to PM me there with their purchase...
