What a great update! :grin:

Actually I’m not heart broken about the super carrier delay - better to get things out when they are ready
for example, this morning I put my toast back into the toaster oven for another minute.

Plus I’ve been so busy with Viggen month I haven’t had the chance to get up to speed on a carrier aircraft
probably her Tomcat.

We got a new toaster and it’s pretty bad for this.
Throw in a frozen Eggo waffle on 7 (max) with defrost and it’s barely toasted. Then put it back in for a second round on 7.

I suspect it’s a conspiracy to weaken breakfast because our older toaster went up to 10!

My toaster goes to 11. :open_mouth:

It’s a conspiracy to make you do math.

As the toaster OEMs say, “7 is the new 10!” So 3.5 is the new 5, and so on.

But it isn’t: 10 + Defrost was a fully toasted waffle! This new seven ain’t no 10!

That’s why I get my waffles the old-fashioned way
I have someone else make them. :wink:

Hahaha this epic thread derailment is the perfect mudspikian way to deal with Mrs. Perederko’s message.

Anyone who thought this was coming out any where close to on schedule is either new to DCS or completely oblivious to reality. I mean the regular carrier is janky in multiplayer.

It’s fun, isn’t it? Try the NTTR instant action dogfight. It’s hard but doable.

I found the other way round, sabre Vs MiG way harder. It feels underpowered and in dire need of wing slats. I also need to find out how to cage the sight, because I don’t need no fancy gyros but I do need a bead to draw.

That’s an understatement! Just last night I was doing an online F-14 cold start on the deck, and my plane suddenly, and without warning, jumped up in the air and promptly plummeted into the drink and exploded. As someone who doesn’t log in much time online, I asked if this was normal, and the response I got was “yes, the carrier started a left hand turn, and so you were discarded.”.
