Me too.
SimHQ is going to have a photo contest. Then we do it. It's all done. Had to redo Khe Sanh. Had a guy on the Hancock with his leg missing.
We are flying through them right now to narrow it down to 15 or so. We could have it out in 48 hours once I get the go. The thing is, each of the missions if flown only once is still at least 30 minutes. That means 8 hours of flying just to get a peek at them. Another problem is that we like them all.
Also, we cannot have a dog. Each set has to be a winner on its own. The first set is limited because the players have to get up to speed. But by now, we don't hold anything back. The fun is in the accomplisment...just like SuperMario.
There is a mission called Night Train. It's bright on a monitor. Pictures don't do our night missions justice. I doubt anyone actually flies them except 8 and me. You have to work the whole way through this mission and you have to know what to do. Open the flare doors. Get down to altitude without smacking a hill. Line up. Look at the target on the LA-313. Deselect LA313. Select Flares. Go CTRL-A. Start looking with the Photo Recce Mod. Pop a string of 3 flares. Push the PrtScr/SysRq button. (you can even go out of the game to check your pictures). Come back around and do it again. You don't shoot one bullet but you know what a lot more back at Udorn than you did when you were taxiing out.
Here's some pictures of about half the missions.
Night Train
Taxi out
Target ahead
SAM on a hauler
See the little SAMs on the train and trucks? You need to get this film home.
LAPES
Disappearing River. FAC'd by Misty after you fly as Misty the mission before.
A Shau Valley.
Hobo 51. My favorite mission about my personal hero.
Hunter Killer. If you have been playing Lock On or Falcon, you are going to be busy.
Hill 471
Easter Offensive. I've seen a picture just like this but not from our SA-7. You gotta see them whizzing all around. I guess you will. (If you follow Lead in, they shoot at him and not you.)
YGBSM
and some little dudes in Hover Cover
See? Tough choice. But we will decide by tonight.
