I played this in the early 90s when I was in primary school. Far too complex for me back then, but I scored plenty of purple hearts and loved it anyway! It was responsible for me becoming a military pilot

@IIproductionsII You can learn them all in a day using mock-ups called cockpit procedural trainers pretty comfortably, but you need to invest a lot more time to make sure you can pull them out under pressure. I like to go through them every morning to keep it fresh.

@Archy11102 There are plenty of aircraft with "reverse thrust". Heaps, as in almost every commercial jet aircraft. It is almost exclusively used to reduce landing distance required, however the C-17 can use it in flight for certain approach profiles. Almost all military aircraft are pressurise...

A super hornet video without comments about the tomcat? This pleases me.

@wiccanmoonman Denial.

@juzzi07 There is a single seat Mirage IIIO being restored in Victoria, not sure when they intend to fly it though. Still a lot of work to be done I believe.

For two guys that think they've got DEO in the bag, its surprising to watch you both slug it out on youtube like kids. Your acceptance into DEO isn't reliant on how quick you learn, both ADFA and DEO methods of entry require that skill. Its not a case of "if you're good enough": DEO looks for s...

@mrbishi1000 Super Hornet with the projected next gen JDAM-ER and JSOW will have significant long range strike capability, with greater accuracy and won't have to drop down to within small arms range and won't need a fighter escort to do it. If there's one thing the Gulf War did show us, is that...

Noveria soundtrack is great. Best planet in the series so far.

@GamingAtGermany I think Kotor 2 was good on the scale of sequels. A lot of sequels turn out horribly, Kotor 2 was ok but paled in comparison to the first. Pretty poor that Obsidian wasn't given the opportunity to ship the game as intended.

@mmmail1969 Not to mention Wedgetail and its link 16. SH's AESA even improves Hornet capability with datalink transfer of information. A true force multiplier. The F-111 was blind and deaf in this environment more or less.

@FSXmunchciXD I think they probably got it mixed up with actually flying operational missions at night or in weather. Both can fly at night and in weather, but of the two only the Hornet can carry out a strike mission in those conditions.

Nice to see a new vid, looks great!

@grim0033 The APG-79 is better than any radar fielded by current Russian aircraft. Fact. The finest Russian built A/A fighter in its most advanced variant (production, not projected) has a radar cross section much bigger and does not have AESA. SH has first look. First shoot? That depends on a ...

@sikorsky158 If he was in an F-14 he'd wouldn't have stood a chance. Biggest target in the sky.

@MudRat02 That's two lines. I should start doing game reviews.

*snickering*

@dunoonroad Nah that's only during the day.

@Dragon27488 Are you joking? Only in the last six months?

I never used to buy it from the supermarket, but I have been buying it there for years and elsewhere before that.

I love the way he says no. NOOOEW.

@okreylos Thanks for the reply, I haven't used Vrui yet (don't have a kinect at the moment) but I've been meaning to. Is there any plans to use the motion capture from your kinect to instead control a bipedal model as opposed to a recreation of your body as detected by the kinect? It would prob...
