what would you like to see?

Is it just me or does the "covered" Westminster look like what may have inspired the Sikorsky UH-60 Blackhawk? It bears a slight resemblance to me. Best regards, Jeremy
 
Watching "Thunderball" the other night brought to mind another Boeing derivative, obviously not Boeing-modified but still something worth watching. Who doesn't recall the modified B-17 at the end of the film with the Fulton recovery gear in the nose? There are only a few seconds when it's in view after the "snatch," but it looks like the tail turret's been removed and a couple of feet besides, beneath the rudder, leaving a rather cramped recovery station.

BTW I have that Alpha-Jet, it's a wonderful flyer.
 
I think FS9 is in need of a decent F-35.

Hmmm

So would it be safe to say we were all duped when it comes to this topic?:uncomfortableness::indecisiveness: There hasn't been any news on any of this for a year!
 
IRIS Simulations has a very nice F-35, but it's the "A" Model.... BUT, with the VTOL Gauge setup by RCB, it's a very realistic flyer, and will take off and land vertically. I have an F-35B done by Dino Cattaneo (Sorry if I mis-spelled that) flying in FSX. It's one of only a very few add-ons I have for that sim.
