DirtySanchez Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 While everybody else focuses on the HW I'd like a better look at that Hornet painting on your wall. Very nice. I struggle to find military / aviation art myself. Can we get a better photo and maybe tell us who the artist is? Going from memory, but that painting looks an awful lot like the one used as box art for the Falcon 3.0 Hornet addon circa mid-90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John C Flett Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Going from memory, but that painting looks an awful lot like the one used as box art for the Falcon 3.0 Hornet addon circa mid-90s. Bingo! You're spot on. I can also see by zooming in it's called "Stung by a Hornet". There is a signature too but I can't make it out. You have a good eye there Dirty Sanchez.

Eldur Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Nice office there... that backup rig of yours beats my main one hooves down. Still running a 3570K, but upped from 16GB to 32GB because DCS 2.5 felt the need for it (kept crashing with just 16 - having no pagefile though) shortly after it aired and replaced my 970 by a 1080 just a few months ago - that made such a huge difference. Had to save up almost for a year to get there... bucks being incapacitated for work, but I'm glad I can still keep up somehow at least in virtual flying and I enjoy every second there, mostly in DCS nowadays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrene Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Watching your youtube videos I see that your HUD and MFD's are super clear as oppose to the stock graphics. What do you do to obtain this clarity? I'm running an 8700K 32GB 1080 with all the settings maxed and can't achieve a readable MFD. A little insight here would be helpful.

ThePro6901 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 It's cool that you have that pick of the VMFA-531 Hornet on your wall. I was at El Toro when they decomm'd that unit. Along with (just previously) VMFP-3, on their RF-4B's. Then not a few years later, they shut the whole friggin base down and moved stuff all over SoCal, mainly to Miramar (which actually started out as a Marine base, oddly enough...). You're doing the Marines that flew/fly these legacy Hornets proud, just wanted you to know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tunnel_rat Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Wow, I wish I could land like you guys! Noob here but please help me out, i'm struggling with even normal landings. How do you set up the approach and when you do your turns for normal landings how far out do you go? How far away from the runway do I stay on each leg of a turn or does it matter? Also, as I complete a turn, i'm never on the same altitude. Is there a way to auto set up such landings, like maybe using auto pilot to set specific boundaries? I've read the manual, tutorials and watched videos yet still very difficult for me. Any tips appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
