  1. I’d love to know how you solved it, ols.
  2. Hi @Mistermann, I didn't know they were using it there! How cool is that! If you want to browse some other Checklists I made, here goes the link for the user files download page filter: Sydy's Checklists and MFDs on User Files Download page. All the best, Sydy
  3. Hi @Mistermann, I originally just did it for me in 2017, but a friend of mine asked for it and said if I could do another one for the L-39 as well. I started doing that with Word (believe me LOL), but then I decided to change a bit. Now I do the basic format on Excel, save it on PDF then snap shot via Corel to PNG and it works fine for me. I was told that this format helps a lot for the VR guys (I use TrackIr). Nice checklist of yours. By the items in it, it was based on mine as well (exactly the same items). All my Quick Checklists are available on the User Files Download Page covering all modules. Btw, I just updated the Apache checklist to vs 1.1 just to correct the installation folder. All the best, Sydy
  4. Thank you! later today I will update it on the User Files Download page.
  5. Thank you, @corbu1! The timing was much better than I thought... I thought the release would be on the 30th or 31st!!! Better this way! Almost finishing my download here. All the best!
  6. Nice! Let’s wait and see! all the best! Sydy
  7. Hi FalcoGer, Maybe! I usually don’t make Non-Normals because I like to keep it simple, but I may prepare something, specially for Eng Fire/OEI approach or similar. Let me mature my Apache Knowledge and then We think about it. Thank you for the suggestion. Sydy
  8. Gents, Thank you all for the comments! All the best, Sydy
  9. Hi guys, It is available the first version of the Apache Quick Checklist. Of course, the folder name is still to be confirmed and some of the procedures yet to be matured, but I think it is pretty solid for a pre-release version. Download it at: User Files Download AH-64D Quick Checklist. Here goes a sample: ... Remove because it was old... I hope you like it. Any feedback is welcome. On release day I will be off on a TDY, BUT i will be back a couple days after, so I will update it as necessary. All the best, Sydy
  10. Hi Nealius, I had no problem whatsoever. The campaign is well balanced in terms of units. I consider it highly enjoyable. My setup is not the highest end: 7700k, 2080, 64gig 3400mhz ram, ssd. (edit): I don’t use vr… all the best. Sydy
  11. Hi Reflected, I think so... Berlin is one on the top of the mountain with a couple of cows? I didn't throttle down... But no worries, I will refly the campaign for sure! All the best, Sydy
  12. Hi Reflected, Don't get anxious! You're gonna love this "click bait" disappointment... LOL Dude, I just finished the campaign and I loved every single bit of it. This is one of the most immersive campaign environments I ever saw on DCS. Just amazing. I will not go through every single mission and I enjoyed them all. Loved the feature of "skip mission" and I used it once on mission 9, if I am not mistaken, the one we escort the convoy then land on Firebase Berlin. I landed there and nothing went on. That was the only single glitch I got from all 12+3 missions. Btw, the spotify playlist you provided is just awesome and bring a notch up on the environment. I never ever fly listening to music, but this campaign was my first time doing so. The only mission I stopped the playlist was on the last combat mission and you know why. My company in Brazil has the last operational UH-1H Huey in the country and it was from Vietnan era (sn 70-15720). I even talked to our Huey pilot about some procedures and techniques. Pretty cool chat. The click bait disappointment was because it was ONLY 12 missions. I wanted more, something like 50 or so! LOL If you make a second TOD for him, I will buy it for sure. Well... I buy all your products anyway... LOL You did an outstanding job on this campaign and I strongly recommend to anyone that like the Huey and Vietnan history to acquire and enjoy it. Congratulations once again and all the best, Sydy
  13. That line name is “A/G Solution Cue”. Correct, impact point is outside of HUD. Put piper over tgt, press and hold the weapons release button and the cue will get lower toward the piper. Then, the computer calculates the correct release point. All the best, Sydy
  14. Thanks for sharing!

  16. Nice article. 7 of the top 10 FARC leaders were sent to meet the creator by A29s…
  17. Gents, I don’t know what happened, but this file was deleted from the User Files. I just re-uploaded it. I will post the link once released. All the best, Sydy
  18. Tks Carbon, I will change it for the next update. Fixed now on vs 2.3. Tks, @Carbon715
  19. Hi guys, I just updated the F-16C Quick Checklist to cover the new engine parameters for start, 20% and SEC light extinguished, to open the throttle. Available on F-16C Quick Checklist User Files Download Page. All the best, Sydy
  20. On the first mission I missed the apron entrance and proceed ahead to make the u-turn at the twy intersection and I got the “Bandit 1, Clear to land”. As you said, very intertaining.
  21. Hi, I just got it. I heard the Pako podcast and it was quite interesting. I will start it tomorrow. Congrats for the new campaign! All the best, Sydy
  22. Hi guys, Lt Robert Johnson was assigned to 61FS, 56FG, 8 Air Force USAAF, on April, 1943. This is is Bob Johnson's third aircraft."Lucky" was used to score his third, fourth, fifth and sixth victories before being lost in the North Sea on 22nd March 1944 with Dale Stream at the controls. Johnson had previously flow two C-Models Thunderbolts christened Half Pint and All Hell, and had shot down his first two kills in the late aircraft, C-5 41-6235/HV-P. Some weeks prior to "Lucky's" watery demise, Johnson had discarded the aircraft in favor of P-47D-15 42-76234/HV-P, which he logically chistened "Double Lucky". This aircraft duly lived up to its nickname, as the ace is assumed to have scored all his remaining kills (bar his last two) in it, although the serial number(s) of the aircraft used for this string of victories (coded HV-P) has not been 100 per cent confirmed. Finally, now Capt Johnson flew P-47D-21 42-255/LM-Q Penrod & Sam to achieve his final two kills - number 26 ans 27. About this Livery. This livery is as historical as possible. The airplane is the "Lucky" on his final version. It was a P-47D-5 (thus it was a Razorback), HV-P, serial no. 42-8461, 1944, England. Features: Originally coded HV-P. Colors: Under surface, Neutral Gray. Upper surface, Olive Drab waxed and polished. Gray panel panel behind canopy on the razorback. National Markings: Standard stars and bars on fuselage. Upper wing; star and bar on outboard port wing; Underwing; large star and bar under both wings. Stenciling: Factory standard. Note; this aircraft was waxed and polished by crew chief for additional speed advantage. The stenciled code HV is tilted slightly down on the port side. New type stencil with crew names in white lettering and red emergency canopy release plus second canopy release in White on canopy rail. Up to 25 Balkenkreuz and acft type victory tallies now on side fuselage under cockpit. Available on: User files download page. All the best, Sydy

Finally, now Capt Johnson flew P-47D-21 42-255/LM-Q Penrod & Sam to achieve his final two kills - number 26 ans 27. Near-fatal engagement flyin "Half Pint" One of the 56th's worst setbacks occurred on June 26, 1943, when 48 P-47Cs left a forward operating base at RAF Manston late in the afternoon to provide escort for B-17 bombers returning from a mission against Villacoublay airfield in the Paris suburbs. As the P-47s approached the rendezvous point near Forges-les-Eaux, they were jumped from above and behind by 16 Focke-Wulf Fw 190s of II Gruppe, JG 26. The first pass scattered the Thunderbolts, and Johnson's aircraft, flying at the rear of the 61st Squadron's formation, was seriously damaged by an Fw 190 fighter which fired 21 20 mm cannon shells into his fuselage which ruptured his hydraulic system. Burned and partially blinded by hydraulic fluid, Johnson tried to bail out, but his parachute snagged, and the canopy was damaged and would only open about 6 inches. After pulling out of an uncontrolled spin and with the fire amazingly going out on its own, Johnson headed for the English Channel, but was intercepted by a single Fw 190. Unable to fight back, he maneuvered while under a series of attacks, and although sustaining further heavy damage from hundreds of 7.92 mm rounds, managed to survive until the German ran out of ammunition. The German rocked his wings to salute Johnson, then turned back. His opponent was likely the commander of III/JG 2, Major Egon Mayer.[2] [N 1] This story is, unfortunately, not supported by any hard evidence and must be taken as such. After landing, Johnson tried to count the bullet holes in his airplane, but gave up after the tally passed 200 – without even moving around the aircraft. While Johnson made it back to land at Manston, four other pilots of the 56th FG were killed in action. A fifth pilot, Samuel D. Hamilton, able to extend only one of his plane's landing gear struts, had to bail out over the English Channel and was rescued north of Yarmouth. 56 FG suffered two more P-47 damaged beyond repair, one Johnsons, and at least 5 more severely damaged against 9 Jagdwaffe confirmed claims. Johnson suffered shrapnel wounds and minor burns to his face, hands, and legs, and was awarded the Purple Heart. He resumed flying missions on July 1. About this Livery. This livery is as historical as possible. The airplane is the "Half Pint" as on the day of the near-fatal engagement. It was a P-47C-2 (thus it was a Razorback), HV-P, serial no. 41-6235, June 26, 1943, England. Features: Originally coded HV-P. Colors: Under surface, Neutral Gray. Upper surface, Olive Drab waxed and polished. Gray panel panel behind canopy on the razorback. National Markings: Standard stars and bars on fuselage.

Up to 25 Balkenkreuz and acft type victory tallies now on side fuselage under cockpit. Available on User Files download page. All the best, Sydy
  24. hi zeitgeist, It’s not dead at all. Just the Developer is really busy lately on his real life. Just that. I know him personally and he’s a great guy, but buuuuuuuusy! All the best, Sydy
  25. Hi guys, A friend of mine asked me to write a checklist for the ILS and synthetic RWY setup for the M2000. I made it for him, but after that he said why not a YouTube tutorial about it? I gave it a go and, I think, it came out nice. I hope it helps and you like it. Thanks to jojo57 for the ILS data for PCN input. That’s a nice add on for the Kneeboard. I recommend the following docs to be installed on the M2000C Kneeboard: Sydy’s M2000C Quick Checklist (Vs update 4.1) Sydy’s M2000C Quick Checklist for Night Ops (Vs update 4.1) Jojo57’s M-2000C ILS data for PCN input Enjoy it! Ps: Para os amigos brasileiros e portugueses, coloquei legendas para os ítens principais. All the best, Sydy
