If you're good at making videos for YouTube or in general and you have experience making DCS videos then why not give it a try?

With this post from Heatblur I'm going to say we'll see the pre-order of the F-14 in August or maybe September (pushing back my original thoughts of July or August). At least we know we're getting closer.

On a side note, ED just announced that they will finally be implementing the AIM-120 and AIM-9X for the F/A-18C module. The F-18 is getting closer and closer to being feature complete and with this next update I'll have everything I need to truly enjoy the module.

That's it for today.
For those who apply to Heatblur: good luck. For the rest of us: happy flying.
