hurricanemk1c 195 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Wow - I suppose it shows how good FS9 (and a little bit of AI poking) can do - the Lightning is the AI Alphasim one while the Bear is Samdin Design's flyable one Thanks fellas - now, what to get?

dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Nice pic Kieran, Well done, I was wondering how you did it ! That SANDIM Bear is a great aircraft to fly. I love it ! And what a noise ! Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Great shot Kieran. Congrats... To bad there isn't a download version of X-plane 10 from Just Flight eh Link to post Share on other sites
TedG 0 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Well deserved win! The shot totally resembles things like this: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:Convair_F-102A_%28SN_55-1350%29_intercepting_a_Soviet_Bear_bomber_060922-F-1234S-036.jpg Cold war antics and all!

mutley 4,498 Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 You know Ted, that is exactly what came to my mind when I chose this shot Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Never seen that picture before! Thanks Ted! Link to post Share on other sites
TedG 0 Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 There are TONS of old intercept shots featuring all sorts of aircraft as the Russians frequently poked and prodded at the DEW-line and other locations globally during the cold war cat and mouse games. I'm sure the Russian bear-baiting pilots enjoyed it as much as the interceptor guys did....there is one image floating around of a Bear crewman flipping the photographer the bird but I cannot locate it.

hurricanemk1c 195 Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 I've seen plenty of Lightning/Jag/Tornado/Eurofighter shots, just not the Americans! Anyway, after much deliberation, I have chosen 'Isle of Wight and Class 66 Pack' from Just Trains (as I'm sure you all know, I've very much in love with the railways) Joe, check your PM's!
