Totally agree, the man's a real performer. :welldone:
The screen shot of his RAAF Tomcat is A1. Actually makes the background scenery very sad.
DaveB got me hooked on modern jet fighters, so I d/ld this Viking.
It's the first Viking in my hangar not made by Vickers. :-O

A bit tempting, Chris,
Though I must be getting old:
Watched the troubled Lancaster cross-wind landing video last night.
This led me to a compilation of RAF gun camera footage, and despite the "kill or be killed" situation, I just kept thinking that there were PEOPLE on the receiving end of those bullets.
Haven't played any of my combat sims for many months.
I'm feeling so sad about Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Thailand.....

Nevertheless, I'll probably dig out the $40 just for a bit of wanton release against unarmed targets occasionally.

Time to :rock: :rock: :welldone: :tunes: :tunes: :Dance: :Dance: :party: :hello: :excited: :rock: :rock: :) :) :) ;)

No prob Alex :thumbsup:

I had a few mins flying it yesterday and I like it. Not sure about the scratches he's put on the glass in this release but it's not a difficult job to swap .99's glass if you don't like em. The gear animation is still a bit odd when weight goes on it or.. when weight is taken off it. Not seen any comments about this.. perhaps no one likes to question Gods work :lol: There are comments about the glass over at the Outhouse mind you. One chap.. a RW pilot.. says you rarely see glass with scrathes on to this degree.. others said its great :lol: Another commented about the glass tint (there isn't one on the model) which is a particular feature of the real thing.
Anyhoo.. make your own minds up. It flies well ;)

Thanks, Dave :thumbsup:

Anyone else read this on his website:
As of today, I have always followed the "continuous improvement" approach
Sounds to me like it belongs in DaveG's list of Paddy jokes! :lol:

Or maybe the one about the Scotland and politicians debate.... :hide:
