VA-146 Blue Diamonds would be a good scheme, spent many happy nights in a Middle East mess bar with pilots from the unit, who helped me rack up Dads mess bill! null

Excellent stick but I'm getting 100% rudder for a little twist of the stick.. is there a way to turn this down as even simple tasks like taxiing see me swinging across the taxiway like a druken bum.

Only if you want your virtual head to fall off at 9G..

In real life, no. Most Eurofighter pilots have three helmets, HMSS (HMD), Day and NVG helmet. Or below L to R, NVG, HMSS, Day.

Two different helmets, the initial helmet is the Eurofighter Helmet Mounted Symbology System (HMSS) and the picture above is the BAE 'Striker II' helmet, which is a generation ahead of the old HMSS. The 'dot' on Striker II is a digital night vison camera, old school HMSS doesn't have this, so currently RAF Typhoon drivers have three helmets..day, NVG and HMSS. The dot on the HMSS may be a fixing point for the projection system, I forget now. Edit, it's the sensor.

Correct, I don't know of any Eurofighter countries that use it. The Eurofigter AEA is supplied by Survitec in the UK.

Sorry, that was a bit of a bum steer.

Depends on which seat and which aircraft, for example one popular seat manufacturer supplies seats with foam or sheepskin depending on the end user requirements. For example, this F-16 seat has foam by the looks of it: https://martin-baker.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/US18E-Seat-Data-Sheet-2023-with-QR.pdf

Looks awesome Gazzer, just right for battling some 190s.

From youtube: The F-15QA Ababil is an advanced version of the F-15 developed for Qatar, with AESA radar, a powerful EW suite, additional thrust and new flight control software, among other improvements. It was later ordered by the USAF, where it is known as the F-15EX Eagle II. The upgrades to the aircraft, combined with the fact it is flying in a low-drag configuration with pylons and CFTs removed, make the manoeuvrability in this video possible. Most importantly, the new flight control software has no software alpha limits, enabling the abrupt pulls. So it's flyby wire and has new flight control software that lets you pull like that and not bend the frame.

Tranche 1 cockpit (MOD crown copyright), hopefully someone can find a later tranche.

She's a beaut to land, you can do a greaser so smooth that it's like a cat pissing on silk. Loving the F-15E.

On the stick top.

Please excuse me if this is 'Teaching grandmother to suck eggs', as I don't know your experience level within the game. To trim down you have to map the trim direction (left, right, houses get bigger, houses get smaller) to a hat on your joystick, or know the keyboard combo for trim. Once you've set a joystick hat as a trimmer, you can then operate trim using that hat switch.

Can the door have a mid (latched?) setting where it's not completely closed but open enough so that it stops the canopy moving forward, as you'd do in the real aircraft while landing?
