Is the standard release time 17:00 ZULU?

Reading thru the manual and found the Engine chop button... when in flight this button seems to be a very "no no" button as it brings the engine to idle in a very fast way it seems. Which situation will make a sane pilot push this button? Or is it only for ground? Thank you!

I think I will trie it first with this setup... added screenshot (I made this on tablet, not the best quality)

I just use the corner buttons (bright, cont...) as the sixth button.

April 11, 1954... this was the most boring day in History. At this day there was also no Apache released by ED.

Old Episode, but it fits now best

You are afraid of the help other users provide in the user files section? Or did I get something wrong here? After the release everyone has to learn operating the Apache... You can count yourself lucky that there is an awesome community bringing checklists and Youtube videos for every procedure.

According to the EA guide George is indeed very underwhelming... I expected to see some progress with George since Petrovich. But it seems they are on the same level. The AI is such an important part of two seaters, I hope they dont forget it in EA between all the other Systems! Maybe ED can have a bit insight into jester from heatblur? He is such a nice solution!

What an awesome tool! Thank you! Just a little cosmetic Problem... Can you add darker lines behind the entry fields? For example in the CMS part it is very hard to tell in which line you enter something or which line belongs to which Programm. Hard to use with a single colour background,can you add a darker background for Programm 2, 4 and so on?

Okay, tried to reproduce... but all worked well! Thank you guys!

Hello! On a little training session I experienced a hard to control pitch down of the nose. I had 3 Bags, 4 Aim120 and 2 Aim9 on the stations. I wanted to attack an enemy also flying low and built up speed to just above mach 1 at about 5000ft. The nose pitched down, trim was not enough to counter, I had to constantly pitch up with the joystick. As I never have seen this I wonder if this has something to do with a new feature for the flightmodel? Or is it a bug? I can provide a track if needed!? Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Hello! What does letters and numbers like "M" or "DE11" (I think it was DE11) above datalink tracks or bugged tgts mean? Is there a way to find infos about such added features? Did not find a hint to this in the changelogs.

Nice

Thank you very much! I thought this has to do with datalink

Hello! What does a yellow "A" in a circle mean on the HSD? Got several of this symbol on Hoggit server. Thank you!

Thank you very much, this clears things up!

SEMI always pops flares and chaff alltough I am not near the ground and only an SA2 is locking me. Why does it think I need flares? It seems like it is always deploying the same Programm with chaff and flare. AUTO does the same I think.

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT ASKING FOR ANY RELEASE DATES OR SOMETHING. I just didnt found that much on the Internet on what DTOS is in the F16... Is it something like CCIP or CCRP or both? Or just used for bomb tossing? Thank you!

Is my summarize correct?... To use the HMCS for setting a Markpoint (outside of the HUD area) 1- CCIP Mode (it will not work in CCRP Mode) 2- Weapon loaded that is VIS mode capable and is in VIS mode. 3- A/G Mode 4- HUD SOI 5- ICP7 6- TMS up long 7- Designate the Target with HMCS with TMS up short 2x to make it a Markpoint 8- Press "0 M-Sel" to make the Markpoint the active steerpoint and SPI

Okay, thank you!

I was sure there was a simple CCIP mode only in the past... Chucks guide also says: (pg 263) "When CCIP pipper intersects the target, depress the Weapon Release (RALT+SPACE) button to release the bomb" No CCRP part is shown in the guide in text or picture.

Hello! I just found out that the Viper is always in the CCIP/CCRP hybridmode where you designate a tgt via the pipper and hold the pickle Button until release... Nice mode, but can we activate simple CCIP release anyhow? Loadout: Mk82 dumb bombs, SMS in CCIP, NSTL fuse.

Nice idea!
