I also have some more update here:

- Russia and India has agreed to build 30 of Su-30MKI ... This would be a
big headache for Pakistan.  Their vipers could not compare to the Russian
birds at all.  Actually, China is going to start manufacturing this aircraft
model, too !!!

- Malaysia and Indonesia have also started negotiating with Sukhoi. 

- Singapore has started dealing to get more F-16C/D blcok 60 to add to their
fleet.  

- Thailand has just received the amount of AMRAMM for the coming F-16 ADF.

- Burma has just received a good number of MiG-29.

- South Korea may order F-15K (with AGP-63 V1) or Rafale .. while
Eurofighter is still working hard to offer Typhoon, and Sukhoi offers Su-30.

It seems that the temperature here in the South East Asia region is getting
hotter !!

Head down arse up trying to get a C172 IFR sim priced out, built and running

for a customer! 
Been following your F15 progress, all of a suddent she's looking real smart!
I 
haven't touched my pit for a while. About the last thing I did was paint and

decorate my Aces-II. Looks almost like a real one now!

Chris.
