I've been trying to make a mission with the Mossie from Tinian North field against an invasion on another island, but have been unable to take off. I'm guessing runway physics don't exist here. All other airfields are normal. Maybe someone could confirm this. Edit. Yes that's it. I think I will have to wait for WWII version. I can get off at a very light load, but that's no use. Jets are possible. ..

Here is my track in video form. Video for DCS Forum from supplied track, F4 Falklands.. This shows the sudden drop in frames when passing through 900' AGL. This only occurs on the Falklands map and is intermittent. I can completely eliminate it by reducing Texture to Medium, as shown. This doesn't work for most people. All other maps work perfectly for me at full settings. ..

This morning I made a discovery. If I run the track I provided, (All settings at max), it will show the 900' problem, 80fps reduced to 18 fps instantly, repeated 3 times. If I run the same track with the Texture, (not Terrain Texture), reduced to Medium, the problem goes away and it remains at around 75 fps at low level. This means that replays run on another machine, will be pretty much useless in this case. ..

That's exactly what I do. Med Unit Textures gives 100% free of ball drop with no noticable difference in quality, but it shouldn't be there in the first place as it dosn't occur in any other map. Also it dosn't always occur. It is intermittant. ..

Here is an example of 900' ball drop, taken this morning. 70 down to 18 fps To achieve this, I increase Unit Texture from my usual medium,, to high and usually descend from a high altitude. .. F4 falkland .trk

There is No 'tail wheel lock' on the Mossie, ..

Yes it's a great site. I've been using it for many years. It did go bad once when it went payware for a while, but the owner recently returned it to freeware, I'm glad to say. If you were a 20 YO, on your first flight as pilot, at night with a full load and you still havn't worked out how to read the fuel guages and your crapping yourself but don't want to show it, you might be glad of those few extra MPH when an engine stops. I tend to fly by the manua,l except when I don't. ..

Hello. The speeds are from the MkVI manual, almost word for word and please note they are at full load, ( 22,000lb.). G de H did not T/O on one engine and perform loops and rolls with full tanks and 4 500lb bombs hanging on.. At half tanks and no weapons, about 17,000lb, T/O boost can be 9lb, which will give a safety speed of 178 mph. Also note Safety Speed has a margin added. ..

The most important speed after T/O is the 'Safety Speed', which at full load and boost reduced to 12lb is, 200 mph or 225 mph at 18lb. Maintain this until boost starts to drop, 170 mph can then be maintained for best rate. This only applies if you're interested in any kind of realism. ..

The unique Harrier won't be around forever. Soak up these Shakespear videos while you can. ..

The loco in the picture is an American USATC S160, for use after invasion in Europe, not German Class 86. The coaches are LMS stock, used in Britain. I don't know where they came from. ..

I got up early. Pressing those 2 buttons will return the Mav to boresight, then Uncage the Mav to redesignate with the slew. I use the DMT to find the target with the Mav slaved. I tried to replicate no. 2, but it either locked or didn't. ..

AP,(A), engages Autopilot Attitude Hold. Then press Altitude Hold. They work perfectly. Tested this morning. Make sure you are trimmed to 1G. Make sure stick is calibrated. ..
