I downloaded this flight manual for an F-105 in a moment of boredom. Waaaaaaay too complicated for me that flying malarkie, and that’s just leafing through it on the sofa, not loaded for bear and having to dodge SA-2s over Hanoi. http://www.avialogs.com/index.php/en/aircr...-105f.html
PS That Haynes link taught me something I didn’t know, first I’d heard that the Malaysians operate Hornets. Every day’s a school day.

I remember flying a F-19 stealth fighter, wasting targets in Iran and over the Central European plains against the Russians. And F-117 over Iraq on the Amiga. And a F-16 in Falcon. I still have the art of the kill book that came with it in my extensive library of obscure things.
And wasting east block tanks in with an AH-64 in Gunship and with an Abrams in Tank Platoon.
And playing a game of Nuclear War against players such as Tricky Dick, Ronnie Raygun, Ayatollah Kookamamie and Mao The Pun.
Ah, the misspent youth. Good times

While you were flying over Eye-raq I was on the ground in CoD. Happy days.

Somehow there is no time to play games anymore
The Apple TV has some silly games like a surfing one and a downhill skiing one but they’re all very PC and SWMBO approved for the minions and their friends.

Haha mine is the same. I’ve got a few games but hardly ever go on it. Personal favourites are the older cod games but stand out winners are the far cry series. Takes “doing whatever you want” to a whole new level.
I remember the old Amiga days. Lotus turbo challenge 2, another game where you flew an Apache about blowing stuff up. Desert strike was it ?Jarrod
Current : D3 2007 HSE - AKA the lemon
-beanie grille
-detango with led bulbs
-club body off rebuild. TWICE.

Hi buddy
I Still remember the Atari games
Trouble with the newer games is I get killed in nanoseconds , there never seems to be cheat codes allowing unlimited lives etc
Really like the puzzle games
There was one for the PS4 set in Egypt , had to work out how to get in and then move stones, the. Work out clues , etc , but can I find it can I hell
Do have GTA 5 I think it’s called , nothing like causing havoc then sticking ur foot down, but I just end up planting it through a house in seconds because the controller doesn’t work properly,
Sniper is another good one, can zoom in whilst shooting , but then I get killed , pah, no fun
