October 17, 20169 yr Another great set, I like the one with the surface mining ops, looks like a photograph! Sascha Rieger | EVO Developer What is EVO • How to get Evo 2016 • FS9 Evolution Forum
October 17, 20169 yr I love that plane. Great shots, HL. Is that the Aerosoft scenery? Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
October 17, 20169 yr The F104 (due to 250 crashes called "der Witwenmacher" at times when it was operational in in Germany) also is one of my favorite jets. At the time (1960-1980) I had the ambition to become a jetfighter pilot but unfortunately didn't qualify. If you really want to fly the best and nicest F104 available for FSX and P3D you need to buy the version from Sim Skunk Works (SSW), an Italian sim developer, having also former F104 pilots in the team. Their version is very near to absolutely realistic and the model is stunning inside and outside! Very realistic flight model also!

October 19, 20169 yr F104 last of the gun fighters made obsolete by radar guided missile fighters made obsolete by stealth made obsolete by fighting drones......wonder whats next? .... I thought the F-8 Crusader was the last of the gunfighters, either way a couple of great looking aeroplanes! What's next?
