54 p for a pint of Bitter in 1982. ..

I replaced the old updater exes with a new download and installed in DCSOB bin. What I need to know now is, Is your DCS exe app, (the one with the black background) installed in bin or bin-mt. Mine is in bin. This might not be the correct place. ..

I'm on a flat screen 1080 and Trackir, so I'm not going to get too many problems, even on the Falklands, which has high detail at low level. Using Harrier, F_1, or F-4, low level at 100' AGL frame rate is lower but perfectly acceptable ( to me). No stuttering is more important. 100' AGL over Port Stanley. Single core. V Sync: Fast. Frame Rate: Unlimited. "It's a fact". When HMS Sheffield was sunk, I was in 'The Sheffield' pub in Newhaven. "That was a fact". Update: The Sheffield pub, built 1891, is now a Co-oP. ..

I have all the locations of the updaters (2), which hasn't altered since 2023. Removed and installed a new one. but it's still looking for the DCS exe in bin-mt. (My understanding). My DCS exe is in, bin. Can somebody tell me where their DCS-exe is located? ..

Following a crash, (jumping between ships on Falklands map), this log appeared and now updater doesn't work. 00000.196 --- Log file: C:\Users\Richard\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS.openbeta\autoupdate_templog.txt 00000.000 === Log opened UTC 2024-07-18 17:18:09 00000.028 INFO : DCS_Updater/2.16.3.18 (Windows NT 10.0.19045; Win64; en-GB) 00000.028 INFO : src-id: f697eb0b6959f621dddfde672932cdb00d183f23, lib-id: b88ea51ae2210987a3865f77cc1802548216d7a8 00000.028 INFO : cmdline: "I:\DCS World OpenBeta\DCS_updater.exe" 00000.190 STATUS: Initializing... 00000.192 INFO : basedir: I:\DCS World OpenBeta 00000.193 INFO : variant: openbeta 00000.194 INFO : DCS/2.9.6.57650 (x86_64; EN; WORLD,WWII-ARMOUR,SPITFIRE-MKIX,POLYCHOPSIM_SA342,UH-1H,MIG-15BIS,P-51D,THECHANNEL_terrain,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain,MOSQUITO-FBMKVI,CAUCASUS_terrain,CA,HEATBLUR_F-4E,RAZBAM_AV8BNA,RAZBAM_F-15E,F-86F,A-10C_2,MIG-21BIS,A-10C,L-39,AVIODEV_C-101,KOLA_terrain,NORMANDY_terrain,KA-50,MI-8MTV2,AERGES_MIRAGE-F1,FALKLANDS_terrain,AFGHANISTAN_terrain,A-10A,SU-25A,F-15C,MIG-29,SU-27,SU-33) 00000.194 INFO : branch: openbeta 00000.199 STATUS: Checking for updates... 00000.545 INFO : Got reply from www.digitalcombatsimulator.com 00000.763 INFO : Got reply from www.digitalcombatsimulator.com 00000.768 INFO : DCS/2.9.6.57650 (x86_64; EN; WORLD,WWII-ARMOUR,SPITFIRE-MKIX,POLYCHOPSIM_SA342,UH-1H,MIG-15BIS,P-51D,THECHANNEL_terrain,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain,MOSQUITO-FBMKVI,CAUCASUS_terrain,CA,HEATBLUR_F-4E,RAZBAM_AV8BNA,RAZBAM_F-15E,F-86F,A-10C_2,MIG-21BIS,A-10C,L-39,AVIODEV_C-101,KOLA_terrain,NORMANDY_terrain,KA-50,MI-8MTV2,AERGES_MIRAGE-F1,FALKLANDS_terrain,AFGHANISTAN_terrain,A-10A,SU-25A,F-15C,MIG-29,SU-27,SU-33) 00000.768 INFO : branch: openbeta 00000.778 STATUS: Can't run I:\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/DCS.exe: (2) The system cannot find the file specified. 00017.543 === Log closed.

FGR2, San Carlos flyby. The Phantom FGR 2, was stationed in the Falklands from 1982 to 1992 and with a bit of imagination, can be used here from Port Stanley and later Mount Pleasant. Stanley had to be lengthened with matting and 5 arrester wires, but it can be used here in DCS, with a standard AA fit of 8 missiles and 2 tanks. There was initially a 100 mile, shoot on sight, exclusion zone, later increased to 150 nm. Main threat was deemed to be a Hercules attack. Later, Argentine recce aircraft Electra and Russian Bears, were the regular intercept. Daily low level excercises were carried out down to less than 100'. Patrols went to 20nm off the Argentine coast. Plenty to do. At 40000' ..

Just to add. T/O from Port Stanley with full AA kit. I use default trim. Full aft stick at 80 kts, then ease it forward a bit, (not very technical I know) and hold it there. Aircraft leaves the ground gently without tail strike. ..

Falkland Islands from a Sea Harrier. ..

Frozen lakes would have been nice, but Winter is now my prefered season for Kola. March 1st intercept. ..

I can't get enough of this map. I just fly around looking at it. It's beautiful. Andes. Glacia O'Higgins. Chile. (Largest glacia in the Southern Hemisphere). Version 2.9.6.57650. ..

Here is my first use of this target on the range, back in 2015. Also used it with F-86 and Mig 21, which has about the same throw distance as the F1. Same technique is also used with the Mirage. .

South Atlantic. ..

A pilots account of his career with the Harrier in the RAF and FAA. Includes his time in Afghanistan. ..

I use my thumb. It never gets tired. ..

..

Also the F4 C/D and the FGR1, FGR2, F3 (F4J UK) had the 30/60 flaps (30 for T/O). The F4E has 30 deg only. ..

It's still usable in its present state and will be my first destination when the Chinook turns up. ..

Hot and high means less power than on a ship. ..

My AV8B was quarantined yesterday and put back into service using the same method. Following a recent drive change, my DCS repair app has disappeared from the Start menu. Where is it installed and if it's not there, how can I obtain it? Thanks. ..

Curious to know. Manual specifically says, Don't use diff braking on T/O roll. I use NW steering and it works perfectly well, about 6 secs press to 70 kts. Why would you want to use brakes?. ..

For 8 x 400kg use 40 deg for a tightish group, or 30 deg to spread'em in a line. Bombs spend 38 sec in the air. Method only suitable for large areas, e.g. airfields, factory complex, or just a bit of fun. Note: The factory is heavily defended by AAA, hence this delivery method. ..

Avast put a F-15 file into quarantine today. Open Avast, click DSC file and restor/make an exception. F-15 back into service, full working order. ..

Press the share arrow, then COPY, then paste in your post. ..

I bought this map today and have been flying it since 5AM, exploring. I can't stop looking at it. It's beautiful. It runs smoothly, even with my Harrier down at dirt level, on my 15 YO turnip. But the islands themselves, WOW. I feel like I'm there. Thanks for all your hard work. Goose Green, with the Phantom. Version 2.9.5.55918. ..

Tossing 4 x 1000lb and 1 x 2000lb unguided bombs at an ammunition factory on Chushka Spit, from 5.5 nm. 4g pull up to 40deg release. Bombs will spend 36 secs in the air before impact. Changing the unguided LGB to 4 x 400kg plus 4 x 400kg wing bombs created extra drag, so alter the PUP distance, but 4G and 40 deg must remain the same. ..
