Wow! Maybe I should take some flying-lessons.. ;) Looks great!
great work
I've watched this thing since Footmunch released it way back in the day. In Arma, It was second only to the F-18 in terms of scripting and functionality (a lot of servers couldn't handle the F-18 - unfortunately), and it has only gotten better. In my opinion, this is now the standard by which all other fixed wing aircraft addons should be judged. Don't believe it? Fly the plane. Try to stop flying it. Pull up and watch it climb, then drop power and do one of those Russian cobra moves. Go low, throttle up, and come streaking in at tree level to fire your weapons; feel how smoothly it functions, look at the placement of the HUD details. On burner, you're gone before anyone knew you were there - without a glitch or a stutter, or a bunch of noticeable artifacts. BIS would do well to look at the quality of this model, because it hasn't sacrificed any on gameplay, and illustrates what can be done when you give a damn. Major kudos to the team of individuals that have slaved over this thing to blur the line between flight simulation and game.
wow ,looks great. looking forwards to flying it:yes
Awesome, looking forward to the release :)
