Looks like I'm voting for the underdog here, but I say you continue the tradition of flying what was your main rival in the previous campaign and load up a Mystère IV A.

Mystere IVA. I sunk a bunch of time into SF:P1. Never knew about SF2. I'm really liking your LP so far. You show off the game really well.

I'd love to see the Hunter F.4 for some more overkill myself. Four cannons, good maneuverability and radar assisted aim? You're going to be a triple ace by the third mission!

I have a feeling we'll be seeing plenty of American planes later on, and I'm kinda tired of seeing the Mystere, so I say Hunter F.4

I'll throw in yet another vote for the Hawker Hunter F.4. It's one of those timeless designs (at least compared to the gormless anteater look of the F-100 and the faintly MiGesque stylings of the Mystère), and in most flight sims we see very little of British designs. As well, I read Empire of the Clouds recently (a good book about the British post-war aviation industry if anyone is curious) and I want to see craft like the Hunter in their best light rather than being mishandled by bungling aircraft manufacturers. Rule Britannia! I will also be incredibly disappointed if we don't get to see at least a brief snapshot of the aircraft we decided to forego in the voting at the end of the LP - for all the cracks I make against the Super Sabre, it's one of those aeroplanes that's greatly overlooked (and so is the Mystère, come to think of it). Edit: Aaaaaand it turns out that's what you're doing anyway. Note to self: don't write posts before watching all the videos. Soup Inspector fucked around with this message at 00:31 on Nov 3, 2013 |

Yeah, my bad. As I said in my edit, that's what I get for being so excited to vote that I jump the gun and only watch the voting video after making the post.

I'm amazed how difficult it is to actually see the fuel gauge. You'd think that would be kind of important, with something that uses up fuel as quickly as a fighter plane.

Fair point, let me try again. Some say... he secretly broke the sound barrier... in a vertical climb. And that he has been in squadron service from the days of the Royal Flying Corps. All we know is... he's not the Stig. But he is the Stig's Flying Uncle! Soup Inspector fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Nov 3, 2013 |

Sub-Season 3A. Red Tide - Fetchez la Vache! (Mystère IV A)  quote:Dear Mum, Right. The planes, that lose the votes, get one update showing them off in full campaign environment. If we can put all they have to demonstrate in one video, there will be one video. If not (like mutually exclusive weapons), then there will be more. Let's start the B-reel  In which there is talk about weapon sales Mystère brings up some new air-to-ground loadout options we won't see in the video. There's no point, since, regardless of choices, by 1982 everyone will be sick of those exact rocket pods and bombs.

Man, I thought that Mystere was supposed to be more or less on par with the Meteor, but it just completely blows it away as an air-to-air fighter.

The Meteor saw service late in World War II (First flight in mid 1943), meanwhile the Mystère is almost 10 years younger than it (first flight in mid/late 1952).

Indeed. It's still faintly alarming just how much it shows up our stodgy old Meteor. I won't be surprised, though, if the F-100 beats the Meteor hands down in performance (if not in aesthetics). Looking at the video, are there any missions where we'll need to punch through the cloud layer (i.e. high altitude interceptions) or are we going to remain at medium/low level the entire campaign?
