New Centennial WWII theme on the Super Hornet. Probably my favorite livery now Cool

Off the Cali coast.

High speed maneuvering over the Pacific.

Landing on the Nimitz.

Now I like that paint. Nice shots.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

I Love this rhino. Im looking forward to seeing it in real life. Has anybody done a repaint of the Centennial F/A-18C that is up at China Lake? Its painted up like the Skyhawk that got clipped by Hornet #4 (I think) during weapons separation tests. If not, hopefully somebody will do the aerial foundry F/A-18 for FS2004, PUhleeze?

Thanks,
Sean

I think I know the one you're talking about (orange wing tips and tail/nose sections), but I haven't seen one done yet. Definitely a cool looking bird!

Thanks for the link Wink

"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"
