You gotta remember that when the developers first released Falcon there were still numerous bugs and glitches to be addressed.

The avionics are nicely modelled on Falcon but it's difficult to spot ground targets on that big MFD ("mutha-f***in' delta")

The community cornered the lead developer one day and said, "we'd like to bayou out." He eventually gave in and sold up, but not before letting them stu for awhile.

After that, the flight model became more accurate and therefore more difficult to master, but if you manually adjust the alcohol/air mixture, Falcon really flies!

I reckon they'll be patching Falcon up for years to come...

Watch the balance - alcohol/air gauges.

When alc reaches certain level Falcon's CPU's is becoming more and more unpredictable.

This may lead to flying in a way that can be described as "mainkg jokes out of gravity".

Or quite the opposite.:)

S Falc and the rest.

There you are, Monday morning skiving off work for a bit of a browse on the :FI: forum trying to forget about glass for a moment and what do you see ?
An effin big picture of one of your perfume bottles as your avatar. ARGH! ](*,)

Falcon that was you, wasn't it?


My lawyers will be in touch.



Just because you got 80 more points than me last night (me -80points) and you got to declare ownership of the Mountains map for the state of Louisiana.....

don't let the power go to your heed :D



ps.... the only way my guns might have hit Rab last night was as they were blown out of my exploding wings by his deft aim, spiralled up in the air and as debris, hit his plane on passing. :lol:


pps Will find a less guilt inducing avatar for myself....if thats ok. ;)
