Love the Tomcat.

Think I spend more time in Fleet Command directing flights of F-14s about than tasking the fleet.


Bit of free-flying in the Ka-50.

Eventful flight this one, but not for reasons based in FSX...

So, load up FSX and set the time and weather to current, spawn myself in my Spit at Duxford with everything off. So, here we go, Master switch on, IFF on, Nav Lights on, Reflective sight on, computer off...huh?

Bloody power cut!!

Five minutes later the power goes back on again, so we try again and this time make it all the way from Duxford to Norwich...bit of a messy landing, stalled her on approach but managed to wrestle her back to the level before the wheels hit the ground, so a heavy landing but nothing broke so that's something. Taxi'd around, got a little lost and had to do a U-turn, but made it to the parking spot, parked up, started shutting down...and the computer reset...


Flying over Cambridgeshire on the way to Norfolk


Coming in to Norwich airport

Very nice mission, lot of assets. Orbit near target area, clear in SEAD, destroy targets, clear in helos, stay on overwatch untill they complete objective, RTB.


Hawg 2; 2x A-10C on overwatch after "leveling the playing field".


Wizard; E3-A AWACS on station.


Colt 2; 2x F-15C on CAP.


Dodge 1; 2x UH-60A RTB after inserting special forces at the objective.


Uzi 21; OH-58D RTB after serving as AFAC throughout the mission. (guess technically it's a Kiowa Warrior)

Not pictured: Texaco; KC-135 available for refueling. Enfield 2; 4x Tornado IDS, all ships lost to SAMs after providing succesfull SEAD at target. All pilots ejected, they were the only friendly assets lost during the mission.

Don't lose your temper.


Bloody satisfying though.
