Hi there,

Here are a few quick pics of me taking my new toy for a spin. This is the plane I picked from Alphasim for the Feb screenshot contest prize. It is a great model with a very cool fuel dump effect. I will try and capture some better shots of it when I have a little more time! Hope you enjoy.

Thanks
Eric Kuebler

Thanks guys, much appreciated! I'm really enjoying this one. It is extremely fps friendly, yet relatively well detailed. I already have an entire squadron of "AI" F -111's flying out of Edwards AFB. I have no idea if they are supposed to be there, but it sure looks cool!

Thanks again
Eric

You know...I had a model of that and always wondered what plane it was...now I know!

Nice!

Say...the model I had had the whole cockpit come off for ejection...is there an ejection effect built in?

Cool I was thinking of buying that one.

Although alphasim models look good I haven't liked the flight dynamics for alot of them and so haven't bought em.

WOW!!!  Shocked Shocked Shocked

Simply amazing! That's the most beautiful plane I've seen in a while....(other than the one I flew tonight, of course...)
