RAZBAM Once in a lifetime sale!

H52

I can assure you that the Razbam planes are definitely worth having in your FS9 hangar. The T-2 Buckeye is a sweet little trainer and I love taking her down in the Grand Canyon to do some HerkyJerk training. The Skyhawks are super fine! I have volume 4....contains my favorite variants of the A-4s (though I do need to look at the other volumes to find which ones contain the variants without the avionics hump...I like the sleek look of the non-humpers). The Banshees are nice.....and will be nicer with some more refined skins (already have a paint kit done for the F2H2 variant....will be a breeze to make up paint kits for the other variants). The A-6 Intruder is superb in FS9. I have now retired the old Alphasim freeware one from back in the day.

If you are going to add Razbam planes to your hangar, now is the time to do it.

OBIO, a few days ago -- after your previous post -- I sat down and did some serious scrutinizing of the RazBam offerings and decided I'd purchase these:

A-6A ( I worked on it, so it's the least I can do!)
F2H Banshee ( has always been a favorite; I have a color photo of it in Flying mag from '50 or '51)
Skyraiders Vols. 1 & 2 (another favorite; I have a control-line model of an AD-1 built as a teen from Air Trails plans)
A-4 (I have Ito's, but I only manage to land it about once outta every four tries and even then, I hafta change my shorts. I've always wondered if it's Ito's FDE, so this is my chance to find out. I'm inclined toward vol.2)

EA-6B I'd like to acquire this one but unfortunately, it's only for The Dark Side :icon_lol:

I have all 4 volumes and only 4 has the humps. Vol. 1 is the early variants including the prototype. Vol. 2 could be called the mid-life and foreign export version pack. Vol. 3 is the 2 seaters although there is a humped version in that if I remember.

Volume 2 was one of my earliest Razbam purchases, back in 2005, and is always one of the first packages to be reinstalled when I have had to reload FS9. One of the nice things about volume 2 is the inclusion of HMAS Melbourne, something to fly the Aussie Skyhawks from; a Majestic-class deck is waaay smaller than one of those American things, so pretty challenging. But all of the Skyhawk packs are nice, and give pretty comprehensive coverage of the entire A-4 family.

Yes, it would be Ito's FDE!! :icon_lol:

My landing skills are horrible and I have landed the Razbam Skyhawks...never on carriers though....just on strips. Well, I have landed the Razbam Skyhawks on carriers in CFS2...which is a lot more challenging that FS9 carrier landings since CFS2 carriers move and bob about. The FDE in Ito's Skyhawk...if like his other FDEs...is probably wonky as all get out.

Yes, I got it as well. Radzamb was, apparently going to the original name of the company but there was a misprint at some point so they ended up with Razbam - well, that is what he said on Facebook a while back.
 
GUys:
Yes the email is legit (and i please ask the moderators to edit the email address), it´s a work around that is working wonderfully for those who have use it.
And yes, i posted about the real name at our facebook group (which is why we ask you to join :)...)

Best regards

Sorry that I did not edit the e-mail address out of the post I sent. I was/am not familiar with that name and thought that I'd ask my SOH compadres for their opinions on an unsolicited e-mail. Thanks for the clarification(s).

Had the Skyraiders pack 2 (The single-seaters) for a long time, but for only $5 I had to get the Pack 1 (Two-seaters) too! Lots of Skyraiders for your money!

Night fighter:

Vietnam:

Skyraiders5.jpg


Two-seater VC:

Single-seater 'Mig-killer':

A few oddities included too; the radar model (There's one in the single-seater pack too):

Skyraiders7.jpg


Swedish target tug:

Skyraiders8.jpg


BTW I copied the soundset from pack 2 over to pack 1 because it sounds much better.
 
I have one question: Which aircraft(s) do I need to buy to actually fly? I bought a Skyraider some time back (I thought it was a stand-alone) but it had to be added to a previous version and I could never make out what it was.

Advice and help will be sorely appreciated as I really want to buy a couple of planes.

Thanks,

Bob
 
I bought 5 planes the other day

Banshee
Skyhawks Vol. 3
Skyhawks Vol. 4
Buckeye
Skyraiders Vol.2

They all downloaded okay and all but the Skyraiders installed okay, too. For some reason the Skyraiders will not unpack, and I keep getting a invalid file error message. Hmmmmmmm. Also, a single download has emptied my Skyraiders downloads and left me with but a single one each of the remaining A/C types. Has anyone else had similar problems?

LA
 
Got all of them on my system Andersel, never had any issues. Sorry buddy.

Might be worth downloading a fresh copy of the Skyraider pack, sounds like it didn't complete properly. And do you use Facebook? If you do, find the Razbam group, it is good fun & you get (effectively) real time customer service as well - thanks Ron & Larry, cracking idea guys! :icon29::icon29:

Hi chaps; my browser doesn't like paypal at all; how does one set the order to pay direct in easy steps please!

thanks

You could buy them at the FlightSim.com Pilot Shop: http://www.fspilotshop.com/ if you like.

That's where I got mine, no paypal required.

I also have problems with PayPal, on a couple occasions I paid for something, got the confirmation from PayPal, then... nothing. So I won't use them anymore.
 
Well, I finally got the D/L situation straightened out. OOH! OOH! JUMPIN' JEHOSEPHAT! Tons o' airplanes to fly! Interesting thing happened the other day, though. I went to fly the Banshee at Lemoore (MAIW) and every time I tried to open the flaps I got a CRASH! message and FS9 sent me back to where the flight began. Hmmmmmmm. Anybody out there have the same (or a similar) problem? Might it be related to the scenery? I've never had this happen before with any other plane or at any other location, just the Banshee and just at Lemoore. Same plane performs flawlessly at Miramar (and everywhere else, for that matter).

Strike Fighters is a jet combat sim, set in the 60s. It has had a number of forms over the years...but has always been a well thought out and very intense combat sim. I have an older version called Wings Over Vietnam...never did really learn all the ins and outs of it....should install it and see if it runs under Win 7 64-bit.

They work, it's best to install them outside the Program Files (x86) due to the screwy UAC.

I created a folder called Legacy Programs for all olders apps that I still use.

They also have newer games (aks Gen 2) that support DX10 and work very nice with Win 7, much better graphics, optimized for multi-core processors, etc.
