Patterns IRL are usually shown on an airfield chart, flown at 900ft AGL or thereabouts, and some will include landmarks to help you with knowing when to turn or if there are sensitive areas you should avoid for noise reasons. My guess is that those NDB references are just a crutch to help you get a feel for the pattern, and to learn how to gauge distance from it. Makes no sense to fly a visual procedure with instrument references, just look outside.

Ever since I bought the Gazelle, I have been trying to find a setting for my controls to make flying the Gazelle comfortable and not an exercise in keeping the thing away from Mother Earth. Can anyone recommend settings ? I am currently running a VPC T-50 base with 50mm extension and T-50 grip. DCS settings are no curve, and saturation reduced to 60%.

Wasn't a photo pod also in the weapons list way back when ? I'd love to do recce. And if it can carry Mk80 series bombs, is it also GBU capable ? Kinda like the F-5, using a buddy laser

300km/h mini il me semble

Not sure whether I should post this in here, but the Lighting section ( Section 14 ) of the manual has mutliple occurences of the word "Lightning", before the right word is used further in the chapter.

Hi, been working on an aéronavale livery, but I have a couple problems : 1 : where on the template is the canopy frame/ antenna ? 2 : I don't understand the description lua, more specifically how to only have the registration show and be fully customisable.

If you stay low and gun the throttle of course you're gonna burn fuel. 300lbs/min + to be exact. However, if you climb a bit and set a 150ppm fuel flow, it's much less thirsty and you still get a decent turn of speed, all the while having a round number to do the maths with.

Something I noticed while making a free flight mission Having these outlines for all the objects would make placing stuff way quicker. Hoping this gets noticed

Found how to do it, if anyone needs my solution for reference : Add 1 Trigger : Add radio item to set flag A to value X Add radio item to set flag A to value Y Add 1 Switched condition trigger : If A=X, then do JTAC script Add 1 Switched condition trigger : If A=Y, then do Stop JTAC script Quite an elegant solution.

Is there any way to pause the jtac's execution somehow ? I have a Predator orbiting near my target group ( bunch of trucks ), but I'd like to be able to disable it with, say, a radio command, so I can use buddy lase from a player aircraft with the same code ( to be able to use both the drone and buddy lasing on aircraft I can't change the code in while in sim )

Doesn't the Harrier 2 carry the HARM ? Looking at BMS videos of its employment even without HTS pod we could use the onboard sensor. The Sidearm is nice and all but I'd prefer having a bit more range against the nastier SAM threats out there.

Happens to me too sometimes, was in the hover advancing at 40 ish knots, slowly adjusting descent rate with the throttle, and then the lift drops and I go from 500fpm to 1500, water flickering on and off until I hit the drink. I think it might be an error with the water/wet thrust values alternating with the dry thrust. and thus killing the thrust we have. It also only happens some of the time. Dry thrust landings go without a hitch.

Have had this issue as well, and a friend of mine too. Sometimes on landing mode water refuses to flow with throttle at full power. Bug ? Feature ? ;) Can anyone enlighten us ?

Master baiters, even.

Thread seems to be slowing down on page 29, mig 29 confirmed ?

Could also be a rotor.

Frankly, that's just evil :p

Honestly was hoping for MiG23 or 27. Would have been the logical progression from the 21, and with the tomcat swing wing knowledge magnitude would have acquired before the split...

The Super Tweet ? Super bird, 70s...

Watching the community trying to figure it out has been hilarious

Supermarine swift then :D

Super King Air hype.

Thanks a lot for the fixes, it is miles ahead of what it used to be, thoroughly enjoy flying it :D A la chasse, mes amis !

Yeah but it'll be the FA2 won't it ? Personally not too bothered about A2A combat.
