I was wondering today, a complete momment of non sense. I was flying jane's F-18, and i just started to think, is it anyway possible to transfor falcon 4.0 to ...lets say Hornet 1.0 hehe, I know, theres a way to fly every aircraft in the sim, or use redviper, open falcon and other addons, but I meant in a full way, FM, cockpit, everything related to F-18 like Falcon 4.0 is...
Would Lead Pursuit even be interested? You know, a Hornet dynamic campaign would be REALLY interesting, or even an F-15! Specially if it is the Super Hornet, that would be...a dream! hahaha...i guess what they need to do is, carrier operation, cockpits, fm, avionics and if possible OIF campaign... :P

i think they said something like it would feature, not be about - but yeah - that WOULD be nice.. seriously nice.
What WW2 Fighter pilots say about Angels and Airspeed:
"Nice job of getting down to the basics - love your choice of a cover!" Col. Clarence 'Bud' Anderson
"I have enjoyed reading angels and airspeed, it should prove good reading for all interested in combat tactics and their application related to the fluid air environment and state of technology in WWII years. All the best as you make it available." - Col. Charles McGee - Tuskegee Airman

I *think* it was from an interview from some computer show...

LP already mentioned that their next sim would be naval operations I sure hope this is the case -- I have also heard this rumor, but have never seen anything in print to confirm it. Makes good sense, though.... and I would sure love that if were the case. Ripcord

http://forums.frugalsworld.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=107919An LP exec was speaking at E3 2006. http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/i_vi...ml?id=1698157n : 'currently in the early development stages of a new product based on F4..." - A new flyable aircraft COULD be available (some possible liscensing & IP issues however, so would not name which one) - LP exec spoke about improving/expanding carrier ops ('vastly superior naval combat simulations'), modelling subs, etc. - enhancements to ground units, "which are a currently a little bit dumb...", better ground AI. So they at least say there WILL be a new product, which is good. I wonder if they will say something public again at this years E3... when will that be? Ah never mind - it was a couple weeks ago. I guess LP didn't say anything then. Ripcord

Looking at the interview he seemed to have placed a big *if* on the introduction of another aircraft. I suspect that you won't find something like that in the first release. Adding a new aircraft is difficult - especially if it were to be a carrier aircraft.
I think you'll see a new Falcon come out. Then later an add-on for the new aircraft with new campaigns included that would highlight that particular aircraft's unique profile.

I think he would not even mention the new flyable aircraft if he wasn't 80% sure it will happen. He's just being extra careful, I suspect. Remember Graphsim also had a F/A-18 sim, so they might be looking to implement that. I hope so.

Today I was thinking about this...again! I was looking for a mod to transform CSF3 into a modern sim, but, as far as I know...or searched, there is none. So after thinking about it a little, I believe it's not going to be easy to make a modern radar, HUD and other stuff in CSF3, so I gave up.
Besides fighter ops, theres not another flight sim available, and from what I've been reading from FO, I'm kind of disappointed, I guess the golden "age" of modern combat flight sim is gone... Sure there is the Strike Fighters and its spin-offs, but it's not the same thing.
I played a little the F/A-18 ODS/OIF, and looking at it... I thought: "This is bad, couldn't they upgrade the models a little bit? textures? Instant Action at least!? " ... After a while I felt even more depressed, damn cravings for a nice flight sim! I think anyone who enjoys flight sims, and has it as a big hobby, will feel or have felt this damn cravings sometimes.
ps: TSH team, you are my heroes, working in a .exe and still being able to upgrade JF-18, congratulations.
