Small bug with indication of JPT -REG. TEST procedure. As of now positioning JPT -REG. TEST switch to position I and II will illuminate JPT 700°C lamp in both C and ZA. According to the manuals JPT -REG. TEST switch in position II should illuminate JPT 730°C lamp.

Yes, same with me, I dont even care about +5nm visibility, but for dogfighting 0 to 5nm its tragic now in DCS to the point that I resignated on it.

I personally think all units should be available to every country, it should be up to mission designer to justify (to himself and ppl that play the mission) why he added "that" specific unit to "that" specific country.

Japan Airlines Flight 123? That was due to incompetent maintenance and paperwork not by design failure.

I agree, having no control of the aircraft ailerons if boosters fail? Sorry but no engineer would design it like that, EVER.

Will do, in a bit.

Yes it is a bug, its function is implemented incorrectly.

Ailerons not moving at all with boosters off is a bug for sure. According to technical documentation for Samolet 75b that I have (Section 4 - Controling the aircraft) the deflection with boosters on should be 20°+-1° and with boosters off 20°-2°. The max. force on the stick with boosters off at speeds M=0,88-0,9 (950-1000km/h) should be no more than 10kg.

Those ground superhuman sniper units are not helping the situation either.

Turn on aileron booster switch just in front of the throtle. More important is using the search function on the forum as there are about 5 threads about this already.

I think some switches are mislableled in ZA cockpit. Switch, SS VZDUCH/ZEMĚ on the left armament panel should read PK-3 VĚJŠÍ cos it is its function in this aircraft version, same with lower armament panel SS switch should be labeled PK-3 VNĚJŠÍ. I know from where you got the labeling, but I think those versions are not exactly the same.

Make sure you have trigger on the stick lowered to shooting position, that is the last safety.

I agree as well.

No aileron trim on 21, and this effect was discussed before too, tho I dont recall any conclusion on the subject.

Yes I see it the same, even manual suggests that it becomes somewhat ustable in roll close to stall speeds. Oddly enough I remember that first version of FM when 21 came in simulated this quite nicely, after the FM revision ths effect disappeared. I personaly think the FM is too stable for my liking.

Agreed, this is must have feature of multi seat aircrafts. It is of course way better to have second player in, but unles its somebody from squadron or well known person, no way in hell Ill let some stranger to my jet.

It wont be if F-5s get all aspect heater, than the MiG-21 is facked basicly. Head-on merge with F-5s carying those missiles? No thanks, RTB and to the officer club for some vodka instead for me.

I belive that has only effect on your own plane as it is modeled now. There is no effect on other planes it just stops at your tail, last time I checked at least.

Thats true, thats what i ment, given that camera is positioned some distance from passing aircraft at that speed it will take some time for sound to reach it. Im not arguing about relative position of aircraft to sound waves, and I know how it works, im just saying its totaly wrong now ingame.

Jetwash, propwash, wake turbulence, thermals and other atmosferic effects. Will the new engine be able to simulate theese effects? And will we ever see them implemented? I cant care less about eye candy, I would much rather see things that are directly involved in actual flying be priority.

If you are at high subsonic speeds, say 0.95M there should be no sound until the aircraft is passing the camera, because the aircraft is moving with the sound waves. Ever heard, or perhaps better not heard blue angles sneak pass? I absolutly hate how this is represented now, just like fake movie effects.

The MiG-21bis against F-15s with amraams is equaly absurd and F-15s are dying every day. Do they ban amraams?

Well as you can mod weapons loadouts on curent aircrafts, Im sure you will be able to do that on tomcat too. Test squadrons were moding RL tomcat you can mod one in game. I would rather have operationaly used loadouts only in official release.

1-I belive only MP tracks are saved automaticaly SP you have to save yourself. 2-Be sure not to exceed operating limitation of the engine or fuel system. 3-Yes while the MiG-21 is beautiful it is also very power hungry.
