The McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle is a twin-engine, all-weather tactical fighter designed by McDonnell Douglas to gain and maintain air superiority in aerial combat. It is considered among the most successful modern fighters with over 100 aerial combat victories with no losses in dogfights. Following reviews of proposals, the United States Air Force selected McDonnell Douglas' design in 1967 to meet the service's need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. The Eagle first flew in July 1972, and entered service in 1976. The F-15 is expected to be in service with the U.S. Air Force until 2025.
The F-15 in all air forces had a combined air-to-air combat record of 104 kills to 0 losses as of February 2008.

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thank you for all your kind comments. I only have demo but I am debating weather to buy the full fsx gold or wait for M$ flight. Because you see, according to Microsoft I live in a big continent where cows herd us and we drive zebras
