OK, I'll give it to Matt. Give us an airplane Matt!

The aircraft that I posted is known as the IAI F-21A Lion in the U. S. Navy. A technicality. They use English.

Cheers!

Rick... cheers

My character somehow got all twisted up. I was playing the mission where you have to infiltrate the Golden Glow Estate and do multiple things. When I was out burning beehives and fighting I just eventually ran away to view my success from a distance. I first noticed it when I squated down on a tree trunk. Coot..the squatter../simHQ/2011

NB-36-H to be technical and yes it was nuclear powered but one has to ask WHY?

To nitpick a bit, it wasn't nuclear POWERED as such. The engines were the normal "six turning and four burning", but the plane carried an onboard nuclear reactor to test the effects of radiation and how efficiently it could be shielded and so on, for viability tests that would eventually lead to nuclear-powered planes..they hoped smile

According to the pilots, the cockpit was so heavily shielded that it was almost completely silent in there, even when at takeoff power.
