Just don’t expect it to fly like it did in Top Gun! :anpeace:
Still, one of the real classics of my youth…
Yea baby, now this is a Aircraft that I would pay a fortune to have and carrier Ops too!!! Life is good!
Heh! - 2 years time…
“European Air Force is a US Navy full-real DCS F-14 Squadron”
Pretty exited about splitting the duty’s with Pilot and RIO. So what is a RIO and their job:confused:? Well I found a good article.

“No, you can be MY Wingman!”
Cue a years worth of Top Gun quotes until Leatherneck release it…
I think the more common term amongst pilots for a RIO is “ballast”
“Talk to me, Goose”
Can’t wait…
“Yeeha Jester’s dead”
Not really fussed about the Tomcat, I’m waiting for the Hornet.
A true multirole combat aircraft to slam dunk onto the deck of a carrier in a true EAF landing (crash and burn).

I know its a little early Maverick, but you might need to have some BFM lessons just to get you prepared…Ooh I cant contain myself! :w00t:

Tomcat’s nice, but I would buy the F8/crusader, A4/Skyhawk,F105/Thud. Bring on the Vietnam era jets! Don’t forget the F4, A7, A6, mig17.

+1, Apollo you’ve the right stuff!!!
Old and graphically challenged with dodgy flight modelling to boot… Wings Over Vietnam. But a hoot of a game for a bit of 'nam fun
