Virtual FAC included. Definitely a far cry from the days of A-10: Cuba
I'm just happy someone is still developing flight sims....that hello kitty Island adventure was starting to wear me down

So the pilot can put his visor down without using his hands. Who is he? Chuck Norris?

It's a motorized visor. Duh.

I don't think Chuck wears a helmet. I saw him in the pattern once here in Corpus in some experimental jetpack that the PRs spliced into his back hair. He was just wearing Blue Blockers.

A buddy of mine flew the A-10 in Desert Storm... some unbelievable stories from training and the latter.

When Chuck Norris calls numbers for the break, the numbers declare an emergency...

True statement... it's ugly in person; confuses the studs.

It was an impressive display as RDO. He came over and chatted for a few afterwards about the jetpack. It was a simple device really... utilizing asymmetric farting for heading control.

I tried to wave him off with the lights thinking he didn't have a radio. How wrong I was. He bitched me out on base freq for a solid 10 minutes. I thought I was going to die for a while, but he got distracted by the CBP Predator. He thought it was El Diablo. Thank god.

How about a home-built, motion-based flight simulator?


Or this guy, who has a salvaged F-15 cockpit that he is fully (and very accurately) restoring for use as a flight simulator:

Look at what you've done. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. Good day to you, sir.
