Hi Everyone,
This thread consists of 'what if' screenshots from the excellent 'Strike Fighters' series of flight simulation games created by Third Wire Productions for the PC. These games are ever so cheap and, straight out of the box, enable you to put 'what if' markings on selected post-war aircraft. Even better, there is a thriving 'modding' community where talented peeps create add-on aircraft, aircraft skins, markings, weapons, ships, terrains and a whole lot more thus making the 'what if' potential virtually limitless and increasing the fun coefficient to grin factor 10 - the full banana

.
Initially released back in 2002 the series has taken on a new dimension with the release of the 'Strike Fighters 2' (SF2) series of games in December 2008 and the SF2 series now consists of;
Strike Fighters 2
Strike Fighters 2:Vietnam
Strike Fighters 2:Europe
Strike Fighters 2:Israel
Strike Fighters 2:North Atlantic
Strike Fighters 2:Expansion Pack 1
Strike Fighters 2:Expansion Pack 2
Whilst development of the series stopped in 2013 there is still a large 'Strike Fighters' community at work producing new aircraft, skins, weapons and terrains so the series will be around for many years to come.

You might remember that back in the Summer I had problems with Photobucket on service, price increases and I also discovered that they were double-charging me by taking direct debits twice a year! Well, sadly I have to report that Photobucket have simply not bothered to get back to me (but sent loads of e-mails when they were chasing up their expected premiums). I feel well and truly shafted by Photobucket and almost 16,000 of my hosted images now have an ugly watermark running through them which affects the vast majority of this long-running thread. Sorry guys!As one of you guys advised me at the time, never pay a blackmailer as they'll just keep coming back for more...
