I wish MIG-21 was out now as I would have bought it. Only thing left that I want is the UH-1 Huey. Think I will pass though. Not enough money for all modules and I will wait for the MIG-21.

What are Flaming Cliffs? Can anyone explain that to me? Makes about as much sense as a Japanese Anime Translation.

It's a rough translation from the Russian but I think "flaming cliffs" refers to the fact that the Crimea is supposed to be a hot warzone and the Crimea consists of a lot of large mountain ranges. Hence, "flaming cliffs". biggrin

That's popped up before in Russian > English translations of change logs (pretty recently actually).
