Like Jehovah, I think they ought to make a combat addon to FS9 then you've got the whole world already mapped to play in. One all encompassing simulator instead of lots of littles ones 8)

cfs3 doesnot run on my computer but my pc meats all of the requiremendts so i had to take the game back to gamestop and ask for a refund

I dont know what the count is and yes i read that they aren't making another CFS but i wouldn't mind a A-skyraider (heavy bomb loads, lol) it was made soon after the war.

Bear are you paid to convert people from CFS2 to CFS3

NAH,  its just that CFS4 was to be based on CFS3's engine & we have three SPADS (Korea & Viet Nam) already done...so Falcon500's CFS4 wish list Skyraider would have come true on the day of release even though it was not in the box.

BTW contrary to urban legend CFS2 & CFS are still on my game machine.  I really miss the ability to use the mouse for engine control, fuel tank selection & the navigation capabilities.

Many of our CFS2 planes like the B-17 & B-29 had fully controllable (speed/heading/altitude) autopilots along with RDF's built in.

IMHO these are the only three areas where CFS2 does a better job & it was expected we would get them back in CFS4 or CFS5.

As for plugging AH & GC guilty as charged.  Its true I never miss a chance, but y'all should remember we still have well over 100 custom built CFS2 aircraft including the B-17 & B-29 still available & many new people do not know that.

Also in addition to aircraft Mathias (Ground Crew) has a whole Navy available for CFS2 including the I-400 submarine aircraft carrier made famous in Clive Cusslers' new book.



Incase anyone is unaware the I-400 class IJN subs were on a scale with modern nuke boats.  They carried three Aichi M6A1 float planes (look a lot a Tony with floats) is a sealed hanger.  The planes were launched by a catapult & recovered with a derrick & hook like the scout planes off a cruiser or battleship.

Actually, Bear had it right all along. There won't be a CFS4, but at one time there was going to be. Microsoft had actually submitted requests for developers and programmers to begin work on a "4", considering the beating that they took over CFS3. Suffice to say, no one could make up their minds, as to the development of a whole new sim, (i.e. CFS4/Korea or CFS4/Vietnam) or to patch an existing sim like CFS2 and call it something else. ???

Funny, CFS2 has been around for a good bit and it is still going strong. No other sim offers such versatility, realism, and support from the flight sim community and Microsoft knows that. I personally like the ida of a Korea Campaign, where the jet age was still in its infancy and a seasoned pilot was the reason that a plane had the reputation for being a good machine.

All that work and it just got unpluged
