    I was sat in the rear crew compartment of a vulcan the other day, would be nice to have one.

    Edit: A modelled rear compartment I mean, not an actual vulcan.

    Although it would be nice to own a vulcan.

    Not that I found.

    I've never stepped into one myself, but would have loved to do this. I used to see them taking off from RAF Warton back in the 70's...I was very young then of course

    Anyhoo, back to Baz and the F-111 which I also have a soft spot for.
    Cheers,

    OMG.... I forgot. Payment will be sent ASAP.


    As for the Vulcan rear seats, they are indeed modeled but would have added way too many polys to the FSX version of the plane... Perhaps the next gen of M$FS? Who knows.

    The same goes for the BUFF VC that we are doing. There is NO way we could have all 5(6) seats in there and keep frame rates at all plausible.

    No problems, seems my address book got corrupt and mails were going to the wrong address.

    Issue resolved and closed.

    After the excursion in developers issues(though maybe serious) can we go back to this thread?

    I fly the Alphasim F-111 modified up to FSX(with e,g gauges off other Alphasim planes),which is better then nothing,but still its way off (not their mistake just old) an IRIS Tomcat or even(not to start controversy again) the Warbirdsim P-51 C.

    So a good answer by Michael when he has a plan (years quarter is enough) would be fine.

    And as a nobody buy minimalistic project a new Vigilante including their bomb of the rear version

    Looking forward to planes rather then guidance to developers

    Back onto the topic, is it possible to do the burp and burn in FSX? That would be really cool!

    For those who dont know, THIS is a "burp and burn"

    Attachment 1708

    They dump fuel out of the back, and light the after-burners, ignighting the fuel. A BIG crowd pleaser at air shows! Sadly, I never got to see one perform this myself.

    We call that a dump and burn here in Oz.

    Every year at our Riverfire festival, until the anals legislated it out, a F111 would fly down the Brisbane river at night at around 100 feet, light the wick and pull up to very steep climb, disappearing into the clouds. The final effect was like an alien arrival and extremely impressive. As the city is literally on the river, the plane was below some of the taller buildings. If you happened to be watching the show from the upper levels of those, the sight would be even more impressive.

    We are working on this effect. There is no way we could possibly produce an Australian version without it!

    Yeah but you should have seen the smile on the F111 pilots face when he was interviewed picking up the new super hornets
    The source code for Vista may very well be the longest suicide note in history

    I've seen that smile.... it then turns into a frown when they have to tank up for the 8th time after a 4 hour mission time... (fully loaded)....

    Here's a little roughie out of Ballina in FS2004 to tide the poor poms over. ;-)

    The Aussies clearly know what to buy. The Super Hornet is affordable and very much has a fair chance at knocking a pesky F-22 or Typhoon down-----it's happened before, much to the chagrin of those that have paid for the pther and much more expensive products.

    It is a shame that the "F" is only a stopgap measure until the JSF comes on line. I'm rather partial to a Hornet, ever since the first time I sat in, climbed over and oggled A21-101 way back when. :isadizzy:

    History repeating itself those with a bit of age will remember the phantoms whilst we waited for the F-111's
    At least the Hornets will be around for a tad longer

    I posted something a bit nostalgic a couple of hours ago, for some FS2004 poms who can't get "dump & burn" working.

    I keep hearing that: The F-22 and JSF are completely different aircraft with different capabilities brought to the table. Noone envisions the F-22 as a stopgap. The F-22 is pure @#$^s-out interceptor, and could mop the decks with pieces of F-35. The JSF is the new multi-role fighter. The actual flight performance and envelope of the JSF is roughly on par with the F-16. Bringing on the JSF is more about modern and efficient warfare with fresh unbeat aircraft than gross performance.

    err, no, the "F" being the "Stopgap FA/18F". Sorry to have confused you.

    As the op of this thread i find it disappointing that it has drifted a long way off topic guys.

    This was a thread started to ask about the F-111 Strike aircraft, not the Super Hornet, F-22, JSF or whatever else has crept into this thread.

    I, as the original poster have asked for this thread to looked at and locked if deemed necessary .

    The original point of this thread has been lost a long time ago.

    Cheers.
