Some pictures I took during the 476 vFG's 8 year anniversary Large Force Exercise "Eight Ball" yesterday. Had 22 members participating, great to see Warthogs, Hornets, and Vipers working together and a very busy Nellis AFB!
It’s to power systems prior to being start, in an emergency, or for maintenance purposes. Also on the real jet with the generator off the cooling fan won’t turn on and you can burn up the APU hydraulic pump. Although that isn’t modeled in the sim.
No the DC powered pump is just for the APU.

The next two posts were talking to pilots in my unit that have over 7000 hours flying an A-10.

And lastly my comment about VR being "close" to correct but not 100% accurate.

Took pictures over drill weekend showing what DIM and BRT caution warning lights and fire T handles should look like.
Currently BRT isn't bright enough and the BRT and DIM switch does nothing to change the light intensity.
Well I said it the last time this happened and I’ll say it again. It sure would be nice if ED communicated with the mod community about upcoming changes. A lot of these mods add to the game more than some of what ED includes. Take the 476th range mod. Without that mod the NTTR in the Nevada map would be completely inaccurate.
Unfortunately ED silently appears to be even less supportive of the mod community now than in the past.
I offered assistance to make sure Incirlik was modeled correctly a year ago. Got a response that yes they’d like my help then nothing after. Hope they respond to your offer to help but with the lack of any presence in this section of the forums historically I wouldn’t expect much.
The HUD projection in VR is only slightly to high. In 2d it’s all around wrong.
PS the seat only adjusts up/down. It has no forward or act movement in real life.
Can’t speak to it being added but for clarification the KC-10 doesn’t attach a basket to the boom. Realistically it can refuel with the boom and then the next flight off the basket.
