  1. I'm not sure. The jet was 87-0174 w/BDU-50's.
  2. Pickled and pulled at the same time.
  3. I've seen this happen in real life. Took out a horizontal stab and rudder.
  4. Had it for the F-14 using Webroot.
  5. I WAS running Webroot. I’ve been using that for over 15 years — then all of a sudden…
  6. For some reason, all of a sudden, I haven't been able to successfully update DCS. Something about the 'F14dll' (see photo). What does this mean? I does this to both DCS World and beta. I had to do a fresh install of DCS World (didn't reinstall/download beta), but know, this is happening again. Any help is much appreciated.
  7. ...as a virus by my Webroot spyware. Has anyone else had this issue?
  8. Thread bump! I just joined the list of CJ owners here in the states. Great airplane! I agree w/wanting one for DCS.
  9. I have a copy of that same book sitting on my shelf. It’s system’s description is very basic in terms of how stuff actually works. With that said, it’s not always going to be correct on how things actually work.
  10. Since everyone is diving into the weeds, that 2,750 is the cracking pressure of a check valve on the utility accessories manifold. If you get 3000 psi on start of #2 on the real airplane, it’s a bad valve which causes a s••t tone of work to be done. So it’s not the pump putting out the 2750. All 4 pumps are interchangeable. @Ramsay correct me if I’m wrong, It’s been 20+ years.
  11. Select burner, airplane goes faster. It’s really that simple. I appreciate you wanting the realistic experience, but there’s not much to it. If the light-off detector doesn’t sense a burner flame, there’s an “AB NO LIGHT” message.
  12. That’s funny because when I was teaching the airplane, it was Tanks 1, 2, 3A & 3B. But what do I know.
  13. No. Fuel flow will tell you if you're in burner. You can feel the segments (we don't call those zones) light. 99.8% of the time when you select burner, you'll get burner. It's really not much more than that.
  14. Just push through. After that you can feel the “kick” as the individual segments light off.
