The wonder of LOMAC (12 shots)

[Vagabond78]

Hey everyone, once again it has been a while since I last made a post. Here are some shots of an Su-33 refueling and some carrier ops. The early morning light was really nice. My landing wasn't pretty but it got the job done. I only had about 200 lbs of fuel left onboard and couldn't make it back to the tanker. Too many supersonic flybys. :7 Hope you enjoy, comments welcome. Take care.

Wow Eric!!! These shots are spectacular - I really like the refueling pics alot!

[Vagabond78]

Thanks for the kind words. Mike, I like the refueling ones too. It was really hard. I think it is much harder with the Russian aircraft because there isn't someone "flying" the boom like on the KC-135 and KC-10. It took me several attempts. At one point I almost collided with the tanker and had to break of so quickly that I lost visual contact with it. I then couldn't find it on my radar because I was pointed in the wrong direction.:-roll Anyway it was good fun.

Oh yeah one more thing. The wire animations on the carrier are awesome. I was off center and the geometry of the wire was perfect. It's the little things like that, that blow my mind.

Hey buddy! I am so happy you are enjoying LOMAC - is the carrier the Admiral Kutsenov perhaps?
