Havent tried CFS3 online yet but still get fed up with shooters in the no-shooting games and its not very realistic when som bozo creams past you in Zero doing Mach 3….upwards !!!!!.
fortunately, we dont do that sort of thing on the forum game…no sireeee we dont !!!!!
see ya there ?

Interestingly one shop already had a pre-owned copy of CFS3 for sale at £15, but I managed to resist.
not a problem mate.
Normally do this at least once a month on the forum. Be good to get some extra’s in cos it is really quite good fun and its better than playing the pc opponents cos they always fly the same pattern and you can knock em out quite easily….stick some one else on the other end tho’ and its a different matter !
till next time….when you WILL HAVE CFS2…. have fun !

BTW, you dont need to have the cd in your cd drive to run CFS2, so you can just borrow it from someone and install it, and you have to to play when ever you want.

2……get an internet connection….allright, allright, some of you already have !
3……look up Microsoft Gamezone on the net.
4……get a .net password. I think (a long long time ago when i did this so it may not still hold 100 % true so please bear with me if i’m wrong…..if you try and log onto the zone it will ask you for your password and login. If you dont have one, I think you get the option to set one up…WARNING…TRYING TO GET A DECENT LOGIN AND PASSWORD CAN BE VERY HARD COS INVARIABLY, SOME ONE ELSE HAS ALLREADY THOUGHT OF WHT YOU WANT TO USE AND HAVE BEATEN YOU TO IT !!!
5…….when you have your logon and password and then try to logon to the Gamezone, it will probably tell you you dont have a certain file that is needed and do you want to download it….answer YES (the file is only a few hundred kilobytes in size and takes very little time to download even on a normal telephone internet connection.
6…….in Gamezone, go to the section marked ‘CDROM required games’ and enter then select MS Combat Flight Sim 2 and go to a game near gamed 50 called ‘Flypast’ and double click on it then click on the ‘join’ button and you are in dont forget the password will ‘forum’ in lowercase !Now playing CFS2 with the standard stuff is reasonable but its a bladdy site more fun if you run a few non standard planes. One of the best site to download from is
http://www.simviation.com
Sorry I havent worked out how to do shortcuts yet !.
Go to the CFS2 section and you have something in the region of 60 pages each holding around 10 planes, of free…YES I SAID FREE !! planes for CFS2. They are zipped files and are an absolute doddle to load and run in the game.
Another good site is
http://www.avhistory.org
agian shed loads of free downloadsI will be online tommorrow night …Thursday 17th…at around 20.00 hrs if any one wants to give it it a go before the big one of Friday evening.
My Gamezone name is….wait for it……WRECKED-PLANE told you the choices where cr*p !)
See ya there, and as Snapper says….watch your six….and as I say…..DAGADAGADAGADAGADGAGADA………Dont think…Look…Search for the B*st*rds, never fly straight and level for more than 30 seconds in the combat zone !!!
Actually, I normally Shhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii just before i smack into deck or get blowded up again !
See ya there
Mega , see you soon 🙂 🙂

Haven’t got CFS2 yet, I’ll pick up a copy when I can but might need to wait for the next round. Is it still £25 now CFS3’s out?

unfortunately if you down load a plane from any site on the web, unless they other guys you playing against have it on their pc but not necessarily flying it, they should see you in your pride and joy…if howver, they havent got it in their ‘library’ it will default to a standard CFS2 plane.
Whether they have it or not, does not effect you flying it tho’ !
Hey, enjoy anyway mate….see ya Friday night (or tommorrow if you want to practice ?)

Blinking flip lads.
Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 2. Thats all you need other than a PC and internet connection. To buy it shouldn’t be more than £25 – or you can always borrow a copy off a friend. Great fun, great challenge, and a great waste of time. Count me in. In the sun.
