Than drool on this one.

The F/A-18E found on avsim.

It has EVERYTHING! Stunning model, great VC, working gear suspension, afterburner, smoketrail, con- and vaportrails, about 12 !!! textures in one package - all sorts of weapons, a paintkit, .... Shocked

To be short: ME LIKE!

I always loved the F 18

Powering up for take off

Take me to the skies, mighty bird

Cruising trough the clouds

Smile to the camera!

We're out a here!

Bit hard on the FPS, but defenitly a winner!

Nice shots and awesome plane Omag! The military base here in my hometown just started supporting F-18 so they fly around now. Before we had the EA-6B and they are still here but I think they will be flying somewhere else.

Great pics!
I installed it this past weekend and your right about it being hard on frame rates....even with my high end sys.

Perhaps one of the newest offerings from ATI will solve that problem. Grin

Home airports are KMGJ and KSWF in Orange County, NY&&Stop by and say hello.

The FPS hit you are seeing is because of the panel and the gauges it uses. If you like flying from external views, just remove the original panel and replace it with one of the many other F18 versions that are out there. You should see a dramatic increase in your FPS and then this will be very flyable for you all.

Hope this helps
