Eight years active duty USAF, three years now as reserves. I have worked B52g, KC-135a,C-141b, C-5b, and now C-130h aircraft. I am a hydraulic mechanic, but I have done a little bit of everything when it comes to maintaining aircraft.

I like it! I think a change of color or a change to its look and feel are good. Haven't you ever wondered if the owner of one of your favorite sites even pays attention to his own page after it hasn't changed in a year? This is definatly better!

Thanks Guys!! SAC doesnt exist, I dont play with the bombers anymore, but, I do get to play with the Hercs now! B52g's were the first ever aircraft I worked on, they hold a special place in my heart. There is nothing quite like them. Thanks again!

I would say it is Desert Fox. If you like to do odd things like destroy trains, kill some Generals, free POW's and other strange things instead just slugging it out battle after battle, thats the one you want. If you can find it. It is the most "interesting" of the three, in my opinion.

I have found stugs to be best for infantry support or stationary, soft, targets like anti-tank guns. I have had some success in using them on other tanks, but only in ambushes at close range or city fighting. They dont seem do well in open country.
