Yep they are the ones, spewin, I had to manually send them to him through hotmail, took me 10min.

grandsurf that looks kick ass mate! There is a series of airfield charts that some dudes from C6 made, I don't know where they got the detail from however the are very well done, and cover every airfield in the sim, includes taxi-way designations. I don't have the website saved but I could send them to you unless someone else knows where to find them again. This includes taxi-way designations. Seeing as these charts are already made, would you consider having your taxi-way signs conform to those charts?

Poncho, welcome but "Get your butt out of the forums and down to hyperlobby right now!"

1pm was fantastic, suited me just fine

Good luck to everyone

Sorry to hear that guys, you've had a very popular server for a long time.

Fix 1.12 - return the F-15 radar and Aim120 to its 1.02 capability.

Re-read Fudds first post and click on the link champ...

I'd like for us to expand upon what Goya brought up with regard to 1.02 amraam vs 1.12 amraam. I too remember the 1.02 days where the 120 was MUCH deadlier. Often in the 169th server, noobish guys would fly the F15 and guys with more experience would jump in the Flankers and Fulcrums. We're talking back in 2004 here, I distinctly remember that if Red Air outnumbered Blue air 3-2 then it was close to an even match, the F-15's radar didn't suffer the TWS issue of not maintaining eleveation on the primary target, and the 120 was pretty good - F-15's were certainly the tits in BVR. Aim120 in 1.02 certainly wasn't like the real deal, but it's just been castrated in Flamming Cliffs! Personally I'd like the missile equation returned to the 1.02 days...it wasn't perfectly realistic but it was certainly more real than the 10% PK amraam we're seeing even in the Red Flags. D-Sythe and GG, I'm not a missile expert nor an expert on the game coding/what was changed but you guys seem to know what you're talking about. What do you guys make of what was changed in the 1.02-FC upgrade, and how did the missiles back then compare with what we've got now and with RL? What do you guys think ED could do to fix this, and how much work would be required? If we could come up with an in-community solution that we all backed then perhaps it could gain some momentum in the future... It's a bug bear for all of us.

Nice movie again SuperVasya! I've love to see those anti-collision lights modelled on all aircraft as they are on the BS.

Hey, anyone in the know who could tell me if I can adjust the wind direction/strength and cloud height in Janes F-18? I can change time of day/season/general weather fine, but want specific cloud bases and wind.

Depending on the airforce and where they are flying there are occasions where the authorisation is as low as they want. In most air forces, unauthorised show boating is deeply frowned upon, however if it's authorised...

Bastards with your high speed connections, god I hate Optus, bunch of fuc-grumble-grumble-grumble-tossers-grumble-grumble-grumble-crappy customer service-grumble-grumble-grumble-3 weeks without lockon-grumble-grumble-grumble...

I think we can adapt a famous quote from a former Topgun CO to this thread: Beware the lessons of a fighter pilot who would rather fly a slide rule (crap on about simulated radar/ecm) than kick your ass! — Commander Ron 'Mugs' McKeown, USN, Commander of the U.S. Navy Fighter Weapons School. Get your butts into HL and off the forum :-D

3 Squadron could help out with that, we'd be able to get an 8 ship as a minimum, probably a 12 ship. The guys are pretty well trained up so flying any sort of formation (we have a few standard ones) would not be a problem.

I feel similar, I don't like having the same aircraft on all the sides. Personally i prefer the Blue vs Red idea of "Red Flag", with the small exemption that Su25's are allowed on both sides if SEAD is necessary. But at the same time I'm happy to go with the flow if the general populous wants to try something different. Something I'd love to see is some bad weather. I've got a crap PC and using the low res cloud add mod I get great frames online in bad weather. So I'd like to see some bad weather and night missions.

3sqn is in again, and can again participate with a similar number of people (10+). As the minor points of the missions, re-arms etc, whatever... it will never always be the one rule.

I'd also like to see it in the general forum. I've never even been in the missions and campaigns forum.

I just don't know where you are getting the idea that any more than 4.5G sustained whilst in full AB will bleed speed. It won't. I just hit fly on the F-15 in the menu, default full fuel, 1 tank, and weapons. At 28000ft 4.5G will sustain 350kts, but at sea level 7G will... Even a PC-9 (turboprop trainer) will sustain 5G at sea level without bleeding speed!

Hey I'm not doubting your research I'm just dumbfounded as to why you cared about this particular facet of the sim so much...to the point where it "ruins the landing experience". Each to their own hey?

4.5G's....no way dude. Guys, as Wolf said, unless you do the real thing for a living you cannot know for sure. Data on the internet is just plain in-accurate, and cannot be trusted. I have yet to see data either printed in magazines or on the net or by the companies ie GD or sukhoi, that has turned out to be accurate. I'm not a GG Fanboi but I tend to listen when he talks about the F-15 as he has an ex F-15 pilot in his squad, and I've seen how much good info he's been privy to. And with regard to the original topic of this thread, amount of alpha on the jet when landing ruining your experience??? How long did it take you to do the maths and actually quantify that you were not enjoying it? What's the difference?? You wouldn't have even know before doing this research!

I briefed as BlueFor Air-air lead however I couldnt load in, so my night was over before engine start.

Blue Dudes: Our final plans are up on the Jabog forum. Check it for the Air-Air gameplan, Air-Ground Gameplan, and the Overall Plan. If you need access see Laud. If you cant get it, ask either 3Sqn_Fudd or RvE Yoda to fill you in, they have access. Thats it from me for the moment, Blue team, see you at 1300Z, Red Team see you in my LCOS!

Wow it's funny how people react to the aircraft set up. When I first saw it, I thought Blue team had the advantage with 10 F-15's. And I still do. So everyone's opinion will depend on how they employ the weaknesses and strengths of their aircraft. Fudd, just keep on doing what you're doing dude. Let's try and keep the criticism to a minimum until after the mission.

Laud, I'm on your TS right now
