Scramble the F-16s!

Featured Replies

So I'm not even sure how this resulted, but my friend ended up taking over my Boeing 777-200ER doing things that you don't do in a passenger jet. So what can I do? Well, there's only one thing I can do in a situation like this. SCRAMBLE THE F-16s!!!! I took off and went full speed to try to find this thing. Well, I did, but what's this? Is he out of his mind? 270 poor passengers, eight flight attendants, and two pilots on that plane. No, this is not good.

I'd inadvertently flown past him, so I did a rapid climb, then a descent before flying around in circles trying to find this thing. Now where is that Triple Seven....

Oh dear. . . .

 

You sure have many exciting stories! Perhaps this is one of the main benefits of multiplayer flight.

I'm sure you had fun! However, the developer of that F-16 should be ashamed...

Think that may have been an old FS2002 model. At least, the F-16 itself was around since the FS2002 days, anyway.

Long before that; I was busting my knuckles on Block 10's in 1983, and those Vipers had lots of hours on them then. I crewed every block of F-16 the USAF ever bought, and know them inside and out. The most realistic FSX Viper I've seen is the Aerosoft version. The only sim I've seen where the systems actually worked about 95% as they should is still Falcon 4.0 and its updates. I'd like to see DCS pull it off.
