Modern jets

[Pat Pattle]

Are any of the modern cfs3 jets still available? I remember a Tornado and possibly a Harrier?
I can't see anything in the Resources.

If so, would anyone have a copy please?

Hey Clive, I don’t remember seeing that kind of jet for CFS3

 

[MajorMagee]

They were pretty sketchy, but I have them both.

 

[Pat Pattle]

Barry (Foo Fighter) to the rescue! The Tornado and F-16 are fine models.

The SHAR is good but basic, it just needs some extra work. Does anyone know the author of it?

I know there are plenty of modern combat sims out there but, to be honest, I can't be bothered to learn them.

Always enjoyed atomic Wild Weasel/Iron Hand missions in Wings Over Vietnam!

I'm partial to that one Foo Fighter as I helped bring them back from Korat. The JB changed to WW after they arrived at George AFB

@Thudman- You were with the 388th TFW in '73-'74? Is that reflective of your SOH handle?

Not to hijack the thread but: Here's an old pic. It's parked in front of the VA hospital at Mather Air Park (former SAC AFB), CA. I believe it's the only F-105F/G on display on the West Coast(?).

 

[MajorMagee]

Little known fact, every aircraft on display like this is still owned by the USAF, and is under the registry and administration of the National Museum of the United States Air Force here in Dayton.

Over 2,900 Aircraft

Yes, I was at Korat in 73 and left with the Weasels in September. Was there TDY to replace the the previous crew so they could move from McConnel to George. Spent most of 70 at Tahkli.

@Thudman - May I interpret that to mean you flew combat missions in the F-105G out of Korat?

 

[Thudman]

No. I was a jet engine mechanic on them. The J-75 was very tough jet engine

 

[FOO FIGHTER]

Respect!
I bet you have a million stories to tell.
