That's one of the coolest "features" of the kind of flying we do. Now you're not only just flying your "sight picture" or "paint", now your adjusting it slowly throughout the maneuver just to make it look like your maintaining the same position. I love it.

Beautiful flying! Even though that maneuver is a "simple" turning maneuver, it's one of the harder ones to fly and it looked great. 8)

Simply brilliant. This would make a really cool open canopy animation, but only in one bird. ;)

Update: I haven't had the time to update my issue, but in the end, it was the CPU that was really bringing my system down. I upgraded to an AMD AM2+920 2.8Ghz CPU from the Phenom 9600 I previously had installed. Now my computer is able to take advantage of every piece of hardware I have installed. A...

Installed a new PSU. This one to be exact: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3276573&Sku=ULT-LSP650 I have noticed that my games run much smoother. There's very little hitching now, but the FPS are still awful at times. Call of Duty Black Ops is now playable,...

Thank you Ells! The problem of Windows being unresponsive 2 minutes after login seemed to be coming from a service or software I had installed. I booted up Windows in "Clean Boot" mode to see if it was the case, and what do ya know? No problems. It probably didn't help that I had 3 anti-virus progra...

Well today my computer wouldn't run software for more than 2 minutes after startup. The programs would stop responding and my computer would just idle, not sure what the causes of that was, in the end I restored my computer to a few days after reinstalling Windows 7.

I've always noticed with this card that the memory clock has never left 1804Mhz. The card should be running at 3608MHz. I've been able to O.C. the card to 2000MHz, probably a little more, but then the card runs unstable. One thing I forgot to mention was that when I start Black Ops, the main menu ex...

Possible problem solved? Rhino suggested that my PSU may not be giving my GPU enough wattage on the 12v rail. I decided to look into it and the GTS 450 requires 22A on the 12v rail. My current PSU only has 18A on the 12v Rail. Could that be my problem? http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchT...

Indeed, that's what I'm thinkin, not sure, I have to buy more memory to find out, because the 2nd stick I have currently is somewhat corrupt and my system won't run stable if I install the stick where it's supposed to be for Dual Channel mode to work.
