Last november i visited Tanagra AB, homebase of HAF's Mirages. Had an extensive conservation with a - C pilot about crosswind landings. He told me that crab is the used technique. After touchdown, the plane aligns itself with the centerline of the runway, and that is due to the big span between the 2 main weels (same for the f-4), and little rudder input is required. I remember, he made a characteristic movement with his shoulders to demonstrate this ''Auto correction'' movement. This feature is totally missing in the simulation now. If i remember correctly, there was in BMS forums a related topic, where these things were explained technically.

I am also huge fan of the 70' s - 80' s. Has the - EE full HUD symbology or the basic symbology from the legacy C version? [ame] [/ame]

Excellent! Day one buy ! Looks similar to the c version (couldn't find a photo from an - e in the net). The position of the vertical speed indicator looks strange, in most photos it is in the place of the mach indicator (below the speed indicator) instead above the rpm indicator. This seems more efficient for the instrument scan. But i'm sure AVIODEV has their own sources! Good job!

The photo was actually from a M2000 C (RDM) not a M2000 -5. As most of the photos i've posted. The M2000 - 5 photos are only those with the black cockpit. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2545708#post2545708 By the way , if you want, you can update the hydraulic pressure indicator with the ANC and EmB words http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2644961#post2644961

With guns selected , there shouldn't be a DLZ. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2626854#post2626854

VEAO has official announced, they won't be making the tornado, because it ' being done by another 3rd party . http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=159076&page=4. (post 36) So who's developing the aircraft, if not Polychop?

And since you have the knowledge, could you also explain the Hyd 1 and 2 switch? From what i ' am understanding Hydraulic pressure on system 1 and 2 are arleady displayed, through the two respective needles, right? What is the purpose of the switch ? (to show pressure in the Ancillary and Emergency brake subsystem like in the F1?).

Have made countless 1 vs 1 engagements against an Ai . Had vs tuaf scenario. Always against an f16c 2 aim 120 + 2 aim 9 . I have 2 530+ 2 magic I have very good kill to death ratio Part of my developed tactic is the described manouver

I turn to the side the contact in the radar screen is pointing. 15 - 20 deg . offset you have to commence the turn /dive as soon as the target is starting the turn, otherwise contact is lost.
-
I remember Zeus said in a post, commenting an intercept video he posted on YouTube, that the biggest mistake you can do when the target is starting the beaming turn, is to fly straight ahead to him. After experimenting in 1 vs 1 bvr engagements against AI, and without having the technical knowledge, I have found that I can maintain in most cases the radar lock, by turning about 20 deg to the side, the target is commencing his defensive turn, and loosing some altitude.

By the way, the posted video (together with part 1) provides en excellent presentation of the Mirage 2000EG. I have already translated the most interesting points here http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2468699#post2468699

Photo from the HUD pedestal panel. Haven't tried the mod yet, from the posted preview photos the AfterBurner cutoff switch (no. 43 in razbam's manual, nexto to EMER OIl switch) should be : [switch] AB OFF

I hope some day i can fly in dcs with a mirage f1cg! [ame] [/ame]

Already posted video. S530 at the beginning (although target is very close) . Watch also how the magic range scale changes from nm to meters at / below 1,9 nm (34 - 3400m) [ame] [/ame]

I have posted several pictures from haf MIRAGE 2000 cockpit, it' might help you. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2545694#post2545694 http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=120580&page=191

Excellent! Can't wait for the english labbeled cockpit!

If you have to fly an IFR route, how do you set / observe track deviation?

And in HAF' s english labbeled cockpit its displayed as "LP (Low Pressure) Main Cock'' ( = shut off valve) . See Picture here http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=120580&page=189

Look at this thread (page 2) http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=156963

Look at 14:00 and forward. The pilot aligns the runway with the -2,5 deg. pitch line (which is missing now, hopefully Razbam will add it) and places the fpm on the runway threshold. As you can see, during the approach the fpm is above the aoa bracket, only during flare the airplane reduces speed (from 158 - 154 to 144 kts) [ame] [/ame]

It's a knife and can save lifes .... . On 30th September 1997 a HAF Mirage 2000EG from 332 Sq. was on a night final approach at Skyros airbase. As you can see from the attatched photo, the airport is near the sea. Due to fatigue / vertigo the pilot landed in the water few meters before the runway threshold. Media claimed, that the pilot was distructed from lights of small ships, that were fishing in the area . The plane ditched perfectly, and intact sinked to the bottom of the sea (depth was couple of m). The pilot realised the situtation and tried to save his life in the pure darkness. He managed to open the canopy and release the upper harness of the ejection Seat. As he tried to release the leg restraint lines (see ejection Seat photo in razbams manual) the survival life west, oppened automatic, as supposed to be (when coming in contact with water). Due to that the pilot couldn't free his legs and drowned .... . Don't know if he tried to use the knife to blast the survival vest and cut the Lines. The plane was repaired and returned to service.

Yes, please! It's difficult to remember all these french words

What are representing the various markers in the S530 range scale on the HUD? (Rmax, Rmin and what else, i see various markers).
-
The 41 24 numbers on the right of the TDC cursor are the altitude scan area on the cursor point and the 22 on the left is the distance , right? Haven't found any relevant Information in razbam's manual or am i missing something?
