Edited my previous post with my painting. 20mm, you've got mail. McCains last ride, sounds like a pretty harrowing mission 05. Just may have to pick up this mission set, when avaliable.

We have McCain's Last Ride coming up. We don't care if you vote for McCain (if you are an American). We care that you go downtown in a Scooter, see the what he saw, dodge flak, get the power plant in your sites, pickle, and pull off in a hail of gunfire only to be met with SAM's targeted on you. If you survive, you go back to the Oriskany to trap. If you don't, then maybe you will stop for a moment and think of the stories you have heard about McCain and how in some way you know more about his entrance into Hell than other people.

That's our hope anyway.


Well said. Real life story telling in a simulation. YAP's premise, I believe.

Incredible detail on the Oriskany. This ship is such a key part of the Vietnam story that it will be a great addition to the game. Thanks for the news update. Viva YAP!

The last airplane for 81-90 has gone to the UK for painting then back to the US for the Crab treatment. The pit is almost done. We are sure that this will be THE outstanding aircraft of its type in the skies over Vietnam. Diego as sent the Oriskany to be equipped with crew and aircraft and is ready for christening.

The missions are done for 91-100 also. The airplane for the last ten missions is being finished and will be ready for paint shortly. There are a lot of effects as yet unseen in WOV and dozens of new realistic targets that took a lot of hours to place.

This download will be huge since there is an aircraft carrier, a helicopter, two airplanes, targets and a lot of high quality paint jobs. We have made so many changes, final testing to be certain we included everything will take days. So...two weeks.

The following pictures are NOT from the missions. I found them in my dresser. I thought aviation history fans would like seeing them.

One is the last flight of the F-102's in Vietnam. I just happened to be standing there with a camera at the time when someone said they were leaving and we had to start sitting on Air Defense Alert...zzzzz. The other is my last airstrike before going home.
