VF-161 was legendary in Navy Phantom lore, known officially as the Chargers, but more popularly as the Midway MiG Killers. Their callsign was Rock River. Gus Robatto has done such an outstanding job with these textures for the Virtavia/AlphaSim F-4, and I've been having a lot of fun with both the textures and the plane. But setting up these group shots is almost as involved as planning a real mission!

Looks great! I need to get that plane, my father-in-law was a back seater on the F-4's.

Great shots, love the livery.
If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Very cool
"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

I'd have to say this is my favorite picture post of the day. Simply because of the creativity
Great plane, and great enthusiasm. Awesome shots

Thanks, guys. Up until recently all I did with MSFS was practice hold entries and hand-fly instrument approaches down to minimums. It's cheaper than renting a Frasca at the airport and keeps your head in the game for the weird stuff they throw at you in recurrent training.
Even though a lot of this stuff has been around for years, I've just discovered it, and I'm having a blast! And it's almost all free! The only payware I have is the PMDG 737, because that's my real-world ride and I can set it up to review some of the scenarios we get in training. The rest is all stuff I've gotten from here and the other sites.
I'm going to be playing with this F-4 for a while. It's a nice piece of work.
