  1. I fail to see why they chose to include us (the customers) in this ongoing struggle, they could just have said things have been delayed owing to issues beyond their control. In the end ED are the ones in control and whatever happens I am sure ED will continue giving us the best Air Combat Simulator available today. So I choose to ignore this as there is nothing I can do or add, so I will simply ignore it. It does raise the question about preordering from third party developers in the future though.

  2. Yes Sir! Wurmy can pretty much do it all - air to air refueling, carrier landing, air to air combat, SEAD, JDAMs, you name it this boy can do it!

    Also he does not seem to mind having an old man talking none stop about the price of fish in Norway...so yeah BEST flight lead ever!

    Seriously though, he does a very good job with his throttle control as a flight lead, something I need more practise with, he almost never goes full afterburner and when he does it is for very short periods like at take off, and from what I have seen he also never flies with the throttle at 100% military, so as a wingman that saves me a lot of fuel.

  3. I have not tried DCS after I updated it yesterday to 2.9 Gus, so I dont know. Also I feel we should maybe move this into discord or PM as right now I am sure Wurmy is wondering who these two elderly gentlemen are who has hijacked his welcome thread!? Just joking you are not elderly Gus - only I am.

  4. I messaged Bamse but he was at a restaurant with his wife when I came online, so he could not join us (no PC at the restaurant...) But I hope to get some flying with Bamse in the near future. Would have been great to have Bamse there as I know he can fly the FA-18C. By the way, I pulled rank and made Wormy lead the mission and I flew as a wingman....I can do that, right? Pull rank?? Anyway he did great leading and taking charge - so I think he will be a great flight lead in JG1 in the future - and I hope to be an adequate wingman....🫢

  5. Got to fly with Wurmy today and he is a very good pilot (much better than me, but I know that is not saying much...lol), I think we are lucky to have him! We flew FA-18C, with JDAMS, got intercepted by two mig 29s and I got shot down, Wurmy destroyed his target and flew home and landed at the carrier - I am back to cleaning the latrines I guess!?

    😜

  6. Yes we can certainly fly redfor for Iran - although I am not to keen to go up against US F-15s, FA-18Cs or F-16Cs with their Aim-120 missiles....

    Saw that we will be getting several versions (released and sold seperatly), so we will be getting Navy F-4s as well, maybe even a British F-4?

  7. Currently rereading this book: https://www.stellabooks.com/books/david-nicolle/arab-mig-19-and-mig-21-units-in-combat/1603891

    Quite a few Arab pilots falling during combat with the Israeli, makes for sober reading - also some people dying when their short range Mig 21s run out of fuel and they try to eject or to force land. Have to say Mig pilots are brave people, glad I am not a Mig 21 or Mig 19 pilot......wait a sec....!?

  8. Welcome  Bussard, I hope you will enjoy your stay in Jg1 and I am really glad you know how to read a map (I cant read maps and last time I tried we took a wrong turn on the Autobahn and were heading towards Berlin instead of Kiel) - I shall always be 50 meters behind you like last time we flew - this way I will find my way back to base!
