    On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
    If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

      I took the plunge and jumped into DCS. The 50% applies to select modules, and then GS's codes will apply an extra 10% of one of them. I picked up F/A-18c, F5e, Supercarrier, and FC3. After doing a few touch-and-goes and a carrier landing in the Hornet, I feel like I should have bought more of them, lol. Now time to order HOTAS and rudder pedals. I'm hooked. 😂

    Hey man! LOVE your videos-keep em comin’!! I thought I once saw you did a video on the use of the switch (on the f-18) that enabled the pilot to use an extra percentage of emergency thrust. Do you have the link to that video? I’d like to use this concept in a scene of one of my books I’m writing (it’s a CAF CF-118 but hopefully is credibly accurate). Would be great to get your input on this, bud. I’ll be sure to include your name/channel in the books credits as well. Guaranteed. Tks.

    The older I get, the more I love the Viper over anything else. It's not rational, so don't attempt to argue with me 😂
