I'll get around to going to see this in a few weeks and then will report in here with a review. I guarantee you there is all kinds of inaccurate shit but I won't care because I am a giant fanboy for afterburners and 'Murica and anyone who isn't is a fag who can name the tim and place to fight me.

Question for the experts, does the F-18 come in both single seat and double seat versions?YellowSnow said:

Yella is correct! Originally it was single seat only with a small group of B models as trainers but now both versions exist for fleet use.YellowSnow said:

So basically the original F-18 was the A model, and there were B model trainers. Same naming nomenclature passed to the C and D model. C were single seat and D were trainer only. The F-18 as I flew them were fleet use single seat only but with the advent of the "Super Hornet" E/F models now two seaters are used in the fleet. I always flew alone because RIO's are just 180 lbs of luggage with eyeballs and I am kind of a big deal.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:

Back seaters were really important a generation ago because of air to air encounters (that extra set of eyeballs not doing anything was important) but in modern air warfare it is basically "he with the better radar wins" so A2A is sort of a dying art form. I guess having someone in the back to tell jokes might be okay. -
I think you’re overlooking the fact that a RIO gets to say things “do some cool pilot shit Swaye!”Swaye said:

You know honestly I wouldn't have minded someone working the radios as well, so maybe a RIO wouldn't be completely worthless.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:
