Finally Leatherneck/DCS have released their absolutely fantastic Mig-21 BIS. Of course we just HAD to launch a server and have a go at it. A bunch of guys with absolutely ZERO knowledge about the Mig, what a blast! "Did you switch on the SARP?"
"The what? Is it that switch next to the SOD?"
"Uhm... no. I think."
"Guys, I think I just lost my canopy."
"There's something blinking red... is it supposed to do that?"
"I think I just fired...something."  Ready for take off!  Formation flying  Good landings  And not so good ones...  And lots of flying and learning in this absolutely wonderful simulated aircraft  Thanks to the guys at Leatherneck Studios, DCS and everyone involved.

Ha! I thought it was the MiG-15, too. That's why I jumped in here. I actually was under the impression that the MiG-21 was out already.

Lots of fun stuff with this module. I can still remember Einstein and I flying it in MP and just marveling at all the little details. Just flying it in formation was a lot of fun.. Of course, there is a small problem with people dropping nukes on the public servers..  BeachAV8R

Hehe... public servers+nukes= total mayhem. A couple more shots from training: Not too bad for the 1st time dropping bombs in the Mig  Booom!  A tad too steep. I blame it on my Stuka experiences...  Talking about pinpoint accuracy...   And back home!
