Yes, turn to release handle lock and push to actual release the brake. I guess, this caught most of us at first

It's still available today in OB.

Thanks, I also had the impression something is off with the AoA gauge. Had 200 kg fuel remaining, only tip tanks installed and regarding the AoA indicator needed 135 kts or something to stay at .45 AoA. Let's see, how this will improve.

Module to hit the store on 1st April: Creepy Asset Pack.

Depends on what time zone was used to trigger the easter egg. I guess, somewhere on the world it was still 31st Oct.?

That would be a cool feature. Saw Ismael Jorda's teaser picture on YT and had to try it out. Got scared hearing the voices in the background on ramp cold start. Thanks ED and @BIGNEWY for bringing us some extra fun in todays weird world.

Capt. Barbossa and his skeleton crew. Nice detail on the skeletons with the torches.

Halloween night ops

added Halloween taxi light Jack O'Lantern:

@6S.Duke Thread should be moved to missions and campaign section, just realized that there is one. Thanks Jens

It's Kobuleti and it's red coalition as well as the flown nation. Have a similar mission which I use mostly with different aircraft. Almost all airfields are red as well as the nations. Never had such issues in other aircraft. In MB-339 can't get contact even inbound requests or whatever. Also got the automatic message after landing when slow enough to taxi to parking, but nothing else. Only after complete shutdown I can request rearm / refule as well as startup. But I guess this is due to the engine not running and communication working in a different way.

@Flappie Please find My latest log attached. I also have these multiple errors. It's a mission with AI F1. Didn't even flew the F1 in the mission. Thanks Jens dcs.log

Hello, did a short cold start mission at Kobuleti. track attached. - COM1 (UHF radio) manual set to 262 MHz, also Ch8 set in ME to 262 MHz. - COM2 (U/VHF) set Ch 8 to 133 MHz. - canopy closed, engine not running, COM1 set and COM selector set to COM1 --> startup request okay - after INS alignment and system setup requested taxi to RW okay - reaching end of RW --> no communication - pressing COM1 or COM2 switch, corresponding light showed up on RDU. Does this work for anybody else? I'm a bit confused. Never had such problems using coms with other modules, once correct radio and frequency was selected. edit: What I didn't try was to push and hold the button!? But that would be weird, cause it isn't implemented in other modules this way. Thanks for the help Jens MB-339_radio_test_Kobuleti.trk

Hello, could someone please check the landing and shutdown training mission? Tried this the second time and it will not commence after inserting the ejection seat safety pin into the seat. Marker will stay on the canopy rail, where the pin was stowed during flight. Putting pin back up and insert again or pressing spacebar will not continue the procedure. Thanks, screenshot an track attached below. track: MB339-Landing-and-Shutdown-Training.miz_30102022_10-32.zip edit: I think I found the solutions, the next trigger contains a condition, which will not be met. I removed this condition marked in red and mission continued successfully.

The devs added a video regarding the parking brake usage

Had only a couple of landings, but with much fuel keeping the right AoA will get you much faster than 100kts. So also keep an eye on your sinkrate. Try to stabilize the approach, cause gauges lagg a bit.

Startup tutorial worked for me. Got the confirmation, that chocks had been removed, even if they are invisible.

Same for me.

The parking brake operation should be pinned or added to FAQ. Push and pull is parking brake, handle rotation is only parking brake lock, but not disengaging it. Took me a while to figure that out.

Wheel chocks was mentioned as known issue / wip item. The parking brake lock / push / pull thing got me too, during my first cold start attempts.

I guess I experienced canopy fogging after a fast decent? Got better after switching on de-mist switch. Anyway, reflections are quite string. Sun was low coming from the rear. Will get used to it. Terrible scratchy sound when rotating too far on takeoff and striking that tail skid, glad there is one.

Had a similar strange com behaviour. Mapped COM1 PTT and COM2 PTT. Frequencies set on both radios. Kobuleti requested startup worked, requested taxi to RW worked. Once reached the RW, was unable to request takeoff clerance. After landing, being at the parking spot, was unable to request re-arm / refuel. Did a complete shutdown and was able to re-arm / refuel with canopy open. Switching COMs on and I also could request startup again (as I'm writing I'm not completely sure if canopy was closed or not for this). No easy com usage for me. Will try next time with empty mission ramp start to get a track.

Do you have any mods enabled? I think there were similar messages after release of Mirage F1 from users having FC3 clickable cockpit mod installed. @razo+r was faster

Traded some ED miles, so the pain with USD --> € exchange was better to live with But wanted to help our Italian friends. Patch downloading.

and some more refueled and clean take off to a night sortie
