FS2004/FSX Boeing C-17 Flare Effect (will work in any aircraft). By Claudio Pizzirani.
 
Cool FX Mate - saw those files in the Flightsim library ..... would look great with the KBT Super Hornet ...

Don't know if it's appropriate to a fighter...wouldn't that be a single aft-firing flare stream?
This one looks quite similar to the C-130 pack.

I quite liked the way this effect lit up the aircraft surfaces.

Mike, you would need to change the effect to show two or three flares at the most. The ALE-39's we loaded in 305 were a mix of chaff and flare. The exact numbers I won't discuss here (OPSEC). You would also have to move the location of the effect to just under and behind the intakes. On the A-D models there was one bucket on each side.

That said it would be cool to see a Hornet puking loads of flares out the back.
 
looks nice, is that the AS C-17? If so does it have a VC yet? Just read that A51 have cancelled theirs!!

What would be cool is an AC-17 as a what if replacement for the AC-130, heck, maybe reality in the future.
