Hi Haole!
Very very nice to see your post just as I’m on the quest of trying to find out When you can “tally” a f16 coming in for a merch, high aspect, Sunne wheather. That would be in distance. I know its kinda jumping at you but you always have the opportunity to disregard my question. :-))
Hope you will enjoy your stay here and I would be happy to fly with you anytime.

Hi Jasajas,
I hate to give the old “it depends” answer but it really does. The environmental conditions are ever changing. Clear sunny days are usually the hardest. If you can manage to put the adversary between you and a cloud layer then you can see them fairly far out. Clear sunny days can result in you not seeing them until you are almost merging. The new helmets really help now and allow the pilots to pick up a tally much sooner obviously. Having a Radar lock gives you a lot of information to help pick up the tally, it is the times that you loose a lock close range that can get ugly! If you are the supporting fighter following your wingman to the merge waiting to take the shot when the lead merges and calls “hostile” it is a fine line between being close enough for you to see the adversary to take the shot and being too close where he sees you and is able to spoil your shot. A good wingman always stays visual on his/her flight lead above everything else! If you lose the adversary but maintain visual with your lead that is not ideal but manageable. If you lose the adversary AND go blind (lose sight of your lead) that causes SO many bad issues. So work hard to find that bad guy at the merge, but don’t lose sight of your lead!

HaoleI have moved. In the big bold and beautiful state of Texas now. I get to see the 35’s fly by once in a while, but that is about it. I still have all of your photos from the 157th! Here’s one I loved very much.
Looking forward to flying with you. Got to meet up and fly FBMS at some point. Always my warmest regards.

Stang took that photo as I was getting ready for a night mission. It’s always been one of my favorites, also!

Great to see you here , I do remember your corner.
We have a retired 16 driver in our group but don’t see much of him these days, driving a desk without weels. And FXS when He can.
Cheers

Hey MODS….
What’s the chance we can get a dedicated “Haole’s Corner” sticky thread, so everyone’s got a single place to find all the Haole talk?
We’ll also need a “new” acronym. Just like (RTFM), which is so popular here ,…we’ll need a new one that’s (IC-ICTY,BTIHTKY) :rolleyes:
If its for Gory’s questions, it would be modified a little to … (IC-ICTY,BTIHTKY-BITCH)

Hey Jhook,
Good to hear from you buddy!!
Send me a PM and I’ll send you the original image. It’s GIGANTIC in resolution, but it sure makes a great wallpaper!
Hey Haole…isn’t this the image we printed HUGE, framed and gave to General Patrick, in exchange for my incentive ride?

Yes it is Stang. I know you are still waiting on your end of the deal! LOL

I know and have spoken to a few F16 pilots and they have all heard and tried falcon 4.0, I know at least 3 that have flown BMS this year in my work sim, but I do not think they are on the forums

I got the 3280x2336 version. Had to scale that down for the forums!
Great to hear from you too Stang! I’m sure you got more pics than I do. I think if we get the “Corner” up and running, you should share more of those pics!

Hey Wolfstone,
Pack that thing up and bring it to the US. I want to try it out

I’m not a real F16 pilot, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night.

And you found the mini bar ?
