  1. Guns MQT Checkride and some activity going on at Nellis when we got "home."
  2. Once fixed we’ll go back to having: -"Pull-Up, Pull-Up" (warnings are provided under two conditions. The first is when the aircraft descends below 90 feet AGL. The second condition is based on a radar altitude flight path prediction. The, twice as loud as all other VMU messages. ) - "Warning, Autopilot" (autopilot disconnected warning) - "Speed brakes, Speed brakes" (The landing gear handle is up and speed brakes are extended (open) more than 10%, and either throttle (not both) is set over 96% or both throttles are set over 96% and KIAS is less than 145; or the landing gear handle is down, speed brakes are extended (open) more than 10%, either or both throttles are set over 96% and airspeed is less than 145 KIAS) - "Altitude, Altitude" (aircraft descends through a preset AGL or MSL altitude) - "Ceiling" (Whenever the aircraft ascends through the preset MSL Ceiling altitude (set through the IFFCC altitude alert capability)) - Autopilot Engagement/Disengagement Tone Will we get? - "Missile, Missile" (When the CMSP reports a missile launch.) - "Counter, Counter" (When the CMSP requires consent to counter a threat) - "Chaff-Flare, Chaff-Flare" (When commanded by the CMSP) - "Obstacle" (Whenever the DTSAS generates a valid OWC,) The VMU alert message priority order is as follows (only “pull-up, pull-up” messages can interrupt other VMU messages): "Pull-Up, Pull-Up" "Missile, Missile" "Warning, Autopilot" "Speed brakes, Speed brakes" "Altitude, Altitude" "Chaff-Flare, Chaff-Flare" "Obstacle" "Ceiling" "Counter, Counter" Autopilot Engagement/Disengagement Tone

  3. Because that’s how the engineers designed it lol. Don’t think anyone here can tell you exactly why.
  4. Lots of opinions and even real world it isn’t standardized. In the 476th we mirror the SOP from Moody AFB. On the ground: positions lights - flash anti-collision - off formation - as required Prior to taking the runway: positions lights - steady anti-collision - on formation - as required
  5. it is not
  6. yes but don’t ever expect a pure suite version in DCS.
  7. Already been requested in two or three other threads.
  8. Deleted to not break rules.
  9. See the below video on what the UHF repeater should show when running through the self test after turning on the mid radio.
  10. Snoopy

    A-10C Clock

    When the battery switch is powered on the clock should initiate a self test and then show 00:00 plus how many seconds it took to complete the self test (7 seconds in the video) until loaded from the DTC. See the video below I recorded today.
  11. Used all the time in combat and training.
  12. Even if you found one if it isn’t taken with an NVG enabled camera you’d be hard pressed to see them.
  13. It would but likely not in scope of what the 355th needs. No they’re not
  14. That’s not how the system works. It is correct as is now to simulate how we set up the cockpit before the pilot steps to the jet.
  15. External NVIS lighting has never been modeled. modeled
  16. HMCS on the A-10C isn’t the same as JHMCS on the Hornet or Viper. The NVGs mount on the pilots helmet like they would pre HMCS and the HMCS monocle is still usable.
  17. I think your conspiracy theory is reaching just a little.
  18. Not ground crew related at all. It happens automatically based on what is loaded.
  19. No they don’t, it was correct for earlier suite aircraft. It’s not for what we have now.
  20. It isn’t
  21. To be fair in the real jet you can’t see the console lights when in direct sunlight, even with them tuned all the way up.
