Hi there,

Here are some shots of the new Coral Designs F-15 with American Airforce markings. Its a great plane. Very easy on framerates for a fighter with a virtual cockpit.
Thanks
Eric

It is a very low overcast day at Nellis AFB in Nevada. It is midday and we are taking off to meet up with an F-16 to practice simulated bomb runs down range.
Image

We break through the soup at about 7500ft and begin our systems check prior to our rendevouz with the F-16.
Image

Over the radio, we are contacted by the F-16 pilot who indicates that he is coming up on my six. We still can't see him but we know he's close!! (This shot was taken from the tower view, if anyone is curious!)
Image

Finally as we break through the clouds again, the F-16 pops up next to us. We coordinate our plans and begin heading down range.
Image

As we fly in tight formation, the size difference in the 2 aircraft is noticeable. We begin a long day of simulated bomb runs.
Image

After a long day, it is back to Nellis. The weather has lifted and it is a beautiful dusk in the desert.
Image

This shot was taken just prior to touch down. It has been a great day, I hope you enjoyed it!!!!

They did a good job creating the model and VC.  I don't plan on loading it, because I get enough Eagle action with LOMAC.  There is something missing when you cannot launch missles and hear sonic booms in FS9.  Granted that is not what FS9 is all about...

be hard doing bombing runs with a C model Eagle  ;)

The story line was awesome, I loved the shot of both you and the 16 from the tower.

Keep those shots coming  8)

Thanks for the replies.
I know the storyline was a little fictional. As Planespotter said, it is a C model. And if anyone noticed, the last 2 shots are actually at dawn, not dusk. But who cares, I just felt it deserved some sort of story.
Thanks again
Eric
