Any REAL F-16 pilots in there?

I seriously doubt there are F-16 pilots here or any combat pilot in any gaming forum. The main reason - they’re too busy flying the real thing. If not I highly doubt that the type of personality required to be a combat pilot would frequent a gaming forum. They might have input (if you paid their consultancy fee), yes, but to actually play and post, highly doubtful. The closest we gamers will get to actual combat personal is if they consulted on the game be it DCS:A-10C or CoD.
I seriously doubt the poster that comes on bragging about flying fighter jets. Remember the first rule of the internet - it’s probably a guy. No wait, I meant the second rule - believe nothing until proven.
Wrong … one example is me (no more fighter jet right now, it’s why I tell you!) … and I know at least 4 other here.
EDIT: 5 now with Toad.

HI 72n_TOAD
Do you have any link to give me for a website where you can actually practice with NDB’S ? … ADF sucks big time … any idea ? thanks
Tim’s Air avigation Simulator is a classic for getting your head around the needles. Still out there, I’m sure.

There two (at least) heavy drivers on the ED forums who are passionate about DCS A10: BBall and TopHat. I think BBall was a big poster on frugals, so I hope he’s gotten the memo on BMS.
-
You’re right. They probably enjoy relaxing with CoD, jump on their WII or some other stress reliever, brain dead game. But to fly the real thing then come back to fly the simulated thing…. maybe not.
There may be one or two that are retired but they’re the very rare exception rather than the norm.
Believe you? why should I? Please clarify.what is bms? how could a pilot use bms? there are but dont ask more just be carefull with what you state and mention just my advice
also pilots that fly bms are almost unbeatable in bvr and you wont find them telling hi guys i am a pilot i want to play with you
-
That’s nice but they’re still fps, bet they also enjoy the occasional game of CoD black ops too. But where’s the fighter pilot coming here working the avionics after working on the real deal. Have you seen them in any combat flight sim forum? Show me one on here… just one F-16 pilot. I’ll wait.
Well I could show you at least two or three active F-16 drivers who are in the team, but it’s not my place to do that. If they want to present themselves they’ll do it themselves. You’ll just have to take my word for it until then.
Mind you, we’re not talking about pilots who just provide input once in a while. We’re talking about pilots who fly BMS regularly, maybe not as much as you and I obviously, but still. This sim didn’t get to where it is just by studying the manuals.

Look, does a pimp watch porn? Well, yeah, sometimes. Done, mods, feel free to close the thread:drink:.

The BMS team has 2 F-16 pilots for a long time.
The third one joined not long ago.
All share their expirience and answer questions no manual or T.O. can answer and thus making BMS the best F-16 sim ever.
If they want to post here, they will. -
One of them is a terrible pilot and I kick his behind regularily in DF. He fights like a little kitty.
This is sweet. If he denies my comment he exposes himself…hahaha
Now, if I could just get rid of Moort and Banger the childeren will be able to come out and play… :mrgreen:

I remember when I flew Aces High 2 a lot, there was a former Tomcat pilot that flew in there and just kicked total ass. Everytime I saw him I was like, “Uh oh…there goes my kill to death ratio down the toilet…”

Caption not required I hope…Yeah when I was in school it was hard to find time to frequent “ANY” forum, but that is the nature of the beast…

What does personality have anything to do with this?

We can’t get paid on any official capacity, any combat pilot in our military, at least that is what our SJA recommends!
The closest we gamers will get to actual combat personal is if they consulted on the game be it DCS:A-10C or CoD.
You are closer than you might think man.

My guess is, if a guy was a fighter jock, and he disclosed it, what is the one thing that is going to happen for sure? His PM box will explode! It would tie up all his time just trying to answer people’s questions. I myself spend quite a bit of time following Combat Helo progress and had answered a few questions here and there. But my business type is not very popular around here therefore I am kind of free… We had a ANG dude over at Frug’s once, he dared to start a thread trying to answer questions related to Falcon and the Viper. Quickly disappeared. I never forget Jarhead, we followed his progress becoming a Hornet driver. There was a viper driver Col. Frug’s (retired or not I don’t remember) I talked to … CW2 Steven Sheppard (RIP) was a fellow Falconeer and a helo pilot…

I had quite a few good PM’s with the -16 guard guy out of Shaw at Frug’s. Don’t even remember his name now to be honest, wish I did. I had quite a few PM’s back and forth with him for a couple years. We were both deployed togeather over at the Deid during high part of OIF. He was actually the reason I found out why I spent time in MOPP gear the first night we put planes up North. He spent a lot of time as well answering questions over on Frugals in his Q and A thread. Wouldn’t be suprised if he is still lurking around somewhere.
Scratch that…just remembered. Name was Haole…

If I ever see that place again… It will be to soon
ps. there might be a F-22 driver here also

I hated that crap. 12yrs and quarterly training in that garb bout killed me. LOL
Had to be the worst gear that I was ever issued.:mad:
