Ito's F-102

Does anyone have or know of a sound file for Ito's F-102 ? I know this is an oldie for sure, but it's the only "102" I know of for FS9. I kind of worked on an F-102 once. Helped prep a 102 for a pedestal at Ellington Field, Houston, painted to look like Bush's jet when he was a pilot with the Texas ANG. Next time I'm down that way I'll get some pics. Lord I'm really old just about every jet I worked on is either on a pedestal, a gate guard, or in a Museum some place. I feel like a dinosaur. :icon32:
 
You ain't just woofin' there. I was assigned to our office at Naval Support Activity New Orleans, LA (now defunct) in 1999. Part of our responsibilities included giving support to the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans at Belle Chasse, maybe 10 miles south of the NSA. I went down there on my first orientation drive after coming aboard. USAFR maintains an A-10 unit there; the Louisiana ANG also maintains an F-15 unit as well. On the road to the back gate of the installation is an F-15 on a pedestal, in the usual grey color; what caught my eye was the AF serial number on the tail. I had to do a quick second look before I recalled it as one of the F-15As that used to be on our flight line at Luke AFB back in 1976, back when I was a 23-year-old buck sergeant. That'll make you feel old. Tempus fugit!:mixedsmi:

Just to add to my misery. The 147th had an Alert Detachment at Belle Chasse for many years. We sat alert with F-101 Voodoo's before we converted to F-4,s. (that's F-4 Phantom's not Wildcats). I now know how my Dad must have felt, he would say that he was in the real Air Force not like me, they called it the Army Air Corps back then, I'd laugh and say "Yea but we,ve come a long way since those days. Tell me again about the Balloons, Did you ever meet or have a drink with Grant or Sherman."
I retired in 2005 after 30 years, of the 8 or so different aircraft I worked on, only two are still on the payroll, the last, F-16C and the first, B-52. "Dust in the Wind".
 
Just copy a thunder sound wave from FS' environment, that should sound'bout right.

I'm sorry to inform you that you are, indeed, a dinosaur.
Fortunately enough, I know a nice insurance company who also covers meteor strikes and long-lasting winters.

You could use just about any single-engine jet with an afterburner/reheat, I suppose.
F-104 springs to mind, or maybe the F-106.
Depends on what you have installed already.

If you want something different, search for "real deal" on avsim. One or two items there might be of use.

When I revisited this post this morning I got to thinking about it and realized just how much of a fossil I am. I started out working on B-52G and H models before they had the EVS mod. FB-111 for short time then T-33, F-101, F-106, during this time also helped mount an F-102 on pedestal. Flew in C-131 quite a few times (C-131 only aircraft I ever saw that used more oil than avgas), C-130, KC-135, C-7, KC-10. C-141, F-4, and C-5. Went from F-101s to F-4Cs, and then to F-16C & D models. Loaded and maintained AGM69A SRAMs, ATR Genies, AIM-4s, AIM-9E-P-L-Ms, AIM-7, AIM-120, SU-23 20MM Gun Pods, M31A 20MM (F-16), MK82s, MK84s, CBUs, BDUs, LGBs, Chaff, Flares, and more. I have loaded more Impulse Carts and cleaned more breeches and gun barrels than I care to even want to remember. For 29 years if it had to do with our assigned aircraft and weapons or explosives I stored it, inspected it, handled it, prepped it, put it together, or loaded. Lost most of my hearing on my right side and I think I've had more than 1000 stitches in my head suffering from Buff, Vodoo, Phantom, and Falcon bites at one time or another. And last but not least enjoyed every minute and would do it all again in a heart beat. God I miss the smell of JP4 and jet exhaust. My wife says that smell was better than aftershave and we got three kids to prove it, she loved it as much as I did. We've been married now for 39 years, she says the first 30 years of our marriage she shared me with another, but the last 9 have been all hers.
 
The next interesting question would be, if there actually is a freeware soundpack for either the F-8 or F-100. This, however, I don't know.

There are a couple of Crusader packages available with sound capacity built right in.
