Indeed, (even though the 24 newer F/A-18Fs are quite unsuited to what Australia needs, it still looks damn cool!)

On an unrelated note, this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTOd4qrPBzw&feature=related is a lot of trucks.

Speaking of Hornets, this might be relevant to your interests:

Hm, doesn't look like the Flight Model's a point of focus in that game. :P

???

Hornet is actually quite good. It can't quite compare with Falcon 4.0 or the like, but it is a rather viable simulator. Don't forget that this sim has been evolving since the early 90's, so there's a long history of improvment to the flight dynamics.

Operation of the weapon systems is quite comprehensive as well - the sim comes with a manual, and you'll definately need it. I don't personally own OIF, but I've had every Hornet since 1.0 up to Korea Gold - this is a good sim. Though, looking at it, you can see it's a bit dated in appearance.

*EDIT

Found you the demo:

I've always preferred the F-16 myself.  The thing just looks fast.  Plus it's louder, too. :D

Yank jets have akways operated in the UK and most of Westen Europe.
Harriers sound much better than I had expected.
