Show # 4001 at Robins AFB today...a couple of photos

Hi guys. I haven't posted here in a while, but glad see that you are all doing better than ever. My brother and I drove down yesterday afternoon from Atlanta to see the air show at Warner Robins, waited out some rain showers, and were rewarded with a great one. To my eyes the team looked extremely s...

Wow! That is beautiful. Will probably put me over the edge on an airplane. Anyone know a good relationship therapist in ATL?

Thanks guys for the reply. So what I'm hearing is a slide down and a tap of the brakes with perhaps no throttle changes.

Stryker, I'm going out of town this weekend, but beginning Monday on, I plan on trying to get on every night. I REALLY need the practice. Need to work on my pitch inputs. Apparently need to lift weights too. My Cougar is giving my right arm fits. :lol:

Got your email and MSN contact.

Why don't the rest of us wannabes fly and practise together. Would be better than flying with AIs I would think.

According to my father who has many hours in both, the F-100 was harder to recover in a stall, which sometimes oscillated to inverted, then right side up after a couple of revolutions.

Thanks for putting up with my connection issues

LD, Cinch, Wombat. You guys were more than accommodating, and I really appreciate your patience. Going to have a serious talk with my ISP tomorrow morning. They are not long for this world anyway. Hope that you'll have me again. Will grease pitch pot and setup some HOTAS buttons for P/L. Regards, Chip

Thanks for the quick reply, setup, and flying tips. I've got a couple of guys I can practice on, although for some reason it's hard getting them out of the hog! Will convince them otherwise. Also working on a custom mission, which means that I needed to learn the mission builder. Printing these foru...

Greetings. Now that my former squad is beginning to wind down, I have time to make a commitment. Last night I submitted a request email with brief bio, downloaded everything from your library, modded my 1.1 FC install, and have started practicing. The Virtual Thunderbirds add-on install went fine, b...
