;D Hi Awash

That is one nice plane but one of the toughest to learn how to fly and  land, other than the Harrier (In my opinion anyway).

I've been wanting an F-104 myself, and found one I like at FSPlanet, but the zip file is invalid, or corrupted so im downloading it again so hopefully this download ill be okay.
I'll give some pointers on it, when after I've flown it a bit( tha is if it works this time ::) )
I've had alot of exp, with jet fighters, and the 104 should be hardly any different than my others.

Heh, you should try Falcon 4.0, now there's a real test. ;)

Yep, it'll spank ya! :o Well I got my 104 ok this time, just got home from work, so I'll try her out in a bit.

Yeah, it might be a good idea to use the same sort of approach to landing it as is taught in the Falcon's manual. The guy who wrote training in that sim is an F-16 Flight insructor Pete"Boomer" Bonanni, and his advice & instruction is good to use. 8)

Well so much for tha 104 I got,...............it's terrible :-/
Looks like it's made out of cardboard & paper, the worst plane I've had. :-[

Oh well, hey Ill see if I have the Falcon manual in PDF on my drive, I believe you should too if you got a jewel case ver. or some other ver.( which I asume you do if you dont have the hardbound manual) but in the meantime I'll dig around my drive for it and sure will send it.

Also you should check out this site
http://www.simmersworld.com/default.php?page=default

I think there are some really good downloads there, and a forum as well. Check out the SP3 for falcon4, it's an upgrade that does wonders.

So, where would I find this F-104 you have, I've seen lots of texture files for it but never the plane itself.
So far every f-104 I have ever gotten has turned out to be trash.

There is a Freeware F-104 which I think is pretty decent. I can't remember the name etc right now though.
