I believe they were clipped to fit into the slightly smaller British carriers. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Hhmm, there should be. Keep pressing the Down arrow button. You'll go below WPT0, through the 9 Mark points (M9->M1), then you should hit WPT59. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

I think WPT59 will always be the default Bullseye from the mission file. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Blower is the supercharger (black lever "S") on the throttle quadrant. When the supercharger is operating, it is compressing air to be forced into the engine. When air compresses, it heats up. So that light is indicating that the compressed air being forced into the engine is getting too hot. There are two ways to combat this. One is to shift the supercharger down one notch and therefore reduce the amount of compressed hot air being injected. The other is to open the intercooler flap to cool that compressed air prior to injection. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

[emoji1787][emoji1787] I know how you feel. I'll certainly give your advice a shot. It makes me appreciate even more these young fellas who had to do all of this in combat and survive. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Great post GT, this helped me understand constant speed props more. Also, we tend to forget that the massive propeller (13ft diameter IIRC) has a mass that has to be moved by the engine, so you lose some HP there. I would like to know what settings were used for combat when you are constantly changing throttle quite abruptly at times. I assume the engineers come up with max continuous as a balancing point of not overloading the engine, not overspending the prop, preventing knocking, and providing enough thrust for combat manoeuvring. Included in this is the pilot not having to spend brain power on thinking of all of this in a dogfight. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Do you mean the DTC GUI does not load, or you can't load a profile in the GUI? If you open the DTC GUI, press on the white FILE text on the top right just above the drop down box. It does not look like a button. When you press it, 3 selections appear, Import, Export, Load Defaults. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

The shaking is probably your engine detonating under high load. If you stick with the recommended settings and be vigilant with your temperature scan and use the respective cooling aids, the engine will purr nicely. I recently successfully passed carrier qualifications in the Corsair School campaign, with 5 take-offs straight into the circuit and 5 traps. The engine was working hard at low level and low airspeed. I was scanning the temps constantly and adjusting as required. The engine never missed a beat. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

After take-off, once you have cleaned up and the engine is performing, you can bring the mixture back to auto-lean, fuel selector to main (from reserve), fuel boost pump off. The fuel boost pump is used as a bit of insurance in demanding phases of flight, i.e., take-offs and landing (and yes, for start-up). Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Ok, great to hear. Many thanks [emoji106] Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

G'day @Don Rudi , It looks like Mission 10 (the first AG guns strafing) is not able to be passed. I looked at the mission goals, which seem to be the exact goals to the ferry flight with drop tanks mission. Some of the goals (scores) require the tanks to be dropped, which are irrelevant to this mission of just strafing 4 trucks. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Thanks Don, That mission fix worked, I was able to get 100 pass. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

OK, all good now. Cheers!

Hhhmm. I can't seem to download the attached mission. Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Ok, many thanks Don. I'll try it later today. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk
