Well, I havent done a thread for a while so I thought I was due. This is Captain Sim's F-104 Starfighter.
She's one heck of a handful to fly, and even more to land. It's so loaded with features that screenshots cant come close to doing it justice, but I'll try.
It's expensive at $35 but worth every dollar, and is a whole sim in itself practicly, and plus you get 12 liveries, in both single & two seat versions, and a combination texture & config. utility to make adding liveries, & configuring the jet a snap.
So here she is............the "Manned Missle"

She'll flat spank you so good, for being bad........ Tongue
Better be strapped in tight.............. 8)
And BTW, Captain Sim's stuff is made by former fighter pilots. So yes,..............it is as real as it gets! Wink
More to come, but it's so hard to stop & take pics cause your so enthralled(& busy handling her) you just want to keep yer hands on her, and keep her moving the way you want. Tongue

Very nice!! I'm waiting for Capt. Sim's 707 to come out. Should be a fine add-on.

Oh yeah, and that it was.  Heh, I can hear ol Chuck Yeager askin Riddley if he's got any Beemans every time I fire it up, and I think of that sequence in the film where Chuck takes it up and loses it at 115,000ft or so and ends up punchin out Shocked
Well here's a few more, and I'll try next time up to get one of the afterburner at full............dang I love this thing! Tongue
