Thanks @Minsky for your kind and very helpful work. Can't wait to see your new file!!

Thanks a lot @DishDoggiefor your kind help. I haven't marked as solution because i think what @Grimeswrote is way more simple and straightforward. I had the suspect that where an aircraft was taxing from was involved but i wasn't so sure. Thanks a lot Dishdoggie and Grimes for your kind help!

Hi guys and excuse me if this question was already answered. I tried to search ME forum but i didn't find anything. So. Let's say i have 4 packs of AI F-16's taking off from a certain airbase. 1st pack is tasked with CAP, 2nd with escort sead, 3rd with sead and 4th with strike. THese groups are all hot and ready to taxi and takeoff from their parking areas. I want these groups takeoff in the same order as above, from 1st to 4th. Is there a way to do this? When mission starts it seems they all run to runway and take off no matter their role. So strike group it goes to target area with all the air defenses up and running! Or sead group is simply shot down by enemy fighter scrambled to intercept them without CAP and escort planes protecting them. One more question. Let's say there are 3 packages and the 4th is with my plane. How can i achieve the same result? Thanks in advance pilots!

Maybe, but i don't really know.. Anyway thanks @speed-of-heat for your kind answer

Hello everybody, i often stumble in instagram on pics of RNLAF Apaches and i am wondering what the pods mountend on both wingtips are. Can anyone tell me what's their function? Thanks a lot!

It happens to me too but cold starting the chopper (mission beginning) not just after a FARP landing. APU POWER ON correctly shown but MFD and IHADSS don't take life...

This mean that i am becoming a quite better pilot than before! Ha! Hover i'm no longer afraid by you!

TBH I'm in doubt if this post it's in the right place 'cause i think this feature i'm asking for is both for mission editor and rotary wings as well (not only Apache). As a veteran of Jane's longbow 1 & 2 I think it's missing an important feature: terrain contour instrument. I am thinking about when in longbow map you drew a line between two points and below the map appeared the terrain profile with all cliffs, slopes and whatever, seen in a "horizontal" point of view. I think this could be a very useful feature for mission editing or when planning a mission for choppers. A pilot can figure out in a better way what's the best route, where to hide behind a cliff, or if there's a large plain with few or not at all places to hide. I know in F-10 map there's satellite view, altitude view etc. but i think this could give a faster and somehow better mission planning/editing. Below there's a pic (very low res sorry)of what i'm meaning (not intended to copyright infringments or advertising an abadonware game..)

thanks @Silver_Dragon I knew, but i hoped that someone would be more informed than me.

Hi everybody, does anybody have a clue about when this map (and Kola as well) will be released? If someone can read the stars movement or see through his crystal ball would be appreciated

Thanks a lot @AndyJWest and @corbu1. I think i'll give it a try!

Hello pilots, I'm planning to buy this deck (see image) to have more handy controls for AH64D. Currently i have T16000, Winwing F18 throttle and logitech Saitek pro flight rudder pedals. Question are: -Is it possible to bind controls to this streamdeck or you can bind just keys for KU? My idea is to use this deck instead of the 12 buttons on joystick base (final idea is to get a winwing joystick in a remote future) -In case what's above is possible, is it hard to do? -Final question: I found this on a popular e-commerce site whose name is taken from an ancient all-female warriors tribe. Do you have a better/cheaper one to suggest? Thanks a lot and excuse me if this is a stupid question.

thanks a lot @SUNTSAG for this and for ALL your very very useful tutorials Have a nice 2023!!!

Thanks @Charly_Owl The best gift to found under Christmas tree!

Never mind. I'll start the sim and swap seats. But i continue to think that this could be a useful feature. Thanks again @sirrah

Thanks a lot! Now I have just to try if it works for SP. And even if it doesn't work that's a useful info.

thanks @sirrah i'll give a better look at ME but i'm not sure about it. Merry Christmas!! :)

Thanks a lot @NeedzWD40 Good work!

Senza finger lift. il 90% del tempo lo passo sul apache e il finger lift mi sembrava quantomeno inutile. Il restante 10% lo divido tra F-16 e A-10CII. Il finger lift poteva essere utile con il viper ma mi trovo bene cmq senza. E i 50€ del finger lift li ho spesi per i dazi.

Gurda, la consegna è stata rapidissima (3 gg) e la manetta (ho preso il throttle del F/18 in sostituzione del Thrustmaster TWCS che si è rivelato una chiavica) è semplicemente spettacolare! Fedex, dopo che li ho mandati a fare in c**o in due lingue non si sono più fatti sentire, poi ovviamente, ognuno sceglie in base a ciò che preferisce. Per l'iva non saprei.. mi sembra di ricordare (non ho qui il foglio della dogana sottomano) che le spese sostenute fossero iva+dazi.

Io ho pagato direttamente al corriere le spese doganali circa 50€ a fronte di una spesa di 270 euro + o -, senza che mi arrivasse alcuna comunicazione da FedEx. Qualche giorno dopo mi è arrivata la fattura da Fedex e poi successivamente mi è arrivata una mail da Fedex dicendo che volevano la prova che avessi pagato. Il corriere ovviamente non ha rilasciato alcun documento, ma dentro il pacco c'erano la fattura winwing e la copia import da parte della dogana di Milano (che per inciso, se hai questo foglio significa che hai pagato dazi e contributi vari). Dopo che li ho offesi sia in inglese che in italiano dicendo loro che i soldi li potevano pretendere direttamente dal corriere non ho più avuto altre mail da loro.

I don't know if this was already wished for. I am thinking about SP missions and 2 seater planes/chopper. I think it would be useful in ME to choose from what seat starting off. I mean, i think for every double seater default position in mission start is pilot. Why don't give the possibility to start directly from CP/G position? While retaining of course the ability to swap position with pilot everytime is wanted/needed. Thanks and merry Christmas

thanks a lot @Zeagleand @WinOrLose

I think one pdf for all would be perfect (for me) but you don't have to waste your time. Doing a pdf was a simple suggestion. Pls continue your superb work as it's easier and less time wasting for you! For me printing each png or only pdf file it's quite the same. Thanks a lot!

Thanks again. Maybe include pdf files also, rather than only png... I love to print all these docs and infos and pdf is more easy to print. But, as said, i think your work is very good and take this suggestion as one coming from a choosy person I abuse of your kindness. Do you have, or do you know where to find a list of all ordnance for all dcs platforms? I mean, often i am not sure about what maverick, or free fall bombs choose for a given mission... Anyway, thanks again for your work!!!
