Based on real McCoy Hollywood , land of the free and full with true Hero's dating ways back from John Wayne to RAMBO such Hero's should have followed in Ronald Regen's footsteps with 'Make my Day Punk' as police chief Clint E to fight against terror and teriany ... course the 'Joker and the Riddler'

With all these fancy weather programs out, I got my REX installed and really and still require a play, you can create great weather theme's, this program I brought back in 2008 I think is still holding its own .

Too right... and so's the F-14, still a beautiful aircraft.
I have all the flavours of Dino Cattaneo's seminal work packed in a huge zip, any day that will be unpacked for a little Naval Aviation.

Great screens.

Thanks Charl B-) , one thing with this Aerosoft package was the additional Aircraft Carrier, Dino's Tomcat dose hold its own, the Iris model was OK but this one has all the Bells and Whistles.

Nice shots, have tried doing some carrierops? If you do then try this:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3pFCe ... RFMDg/view

Its vLSO and you run it as you make your approach to the carrier, based on RL grades it will grade your landing and you can see your approach on a chart. It also logs all carrier landings.

Have you tried vLSO and had your landings graded? Its pretty cool comparing approaches to RL pilot grades.
