Hi Delta99, That sounds like exactly what us new F-15 pilots need! You can upload it here... https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/ at the top-right corner there is a button to upload your miz. file i think. Thanks for sharing

Sounds Great, I also sent You a PM.

Nice 1, thx twistking

Verry cool Thank You! I wonder if you could use this with it? https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=170746

That sounds cool! Does it use SU-27 flight model & wepons?

The manuals for each dcs module should be found in the dcsworld/mods/(module name)/docs folder. Thats a good place to start. Then there are guides around for most of them, like this excellent one here http://www.mudspike.com/dcs-f-15c-combat-guide-for-beginners/ or vids like this I find that its better to use google rather than the forum search engine to find stuff... just my 2 cents

Thank You all for taking the time to explain it to me. 1. At 50ft you don't care about the glideslope anymore. Below 100-200ft you normally keep the present attitude and at 50ft you are almost starting the flare. 2. Approach speed devided by 2 and multiplied by 10 is your 3deg glideslope. In your example: 170/2 = 85 x 10 = 850ft/min. BTW, if your pitch attitude (what you call a/c datum) is 10deg and the glideslope is 3deg then the actual AoA is 13deg. (not to confuse with units) 3. As P3CFE mentioned, you need to be at the correct altitude and distance to be able to fly a 3deg glideslope. Fortunately this is another easy calculation. Distance x 3 = altitude. E.g. 4NM x 3 = 1200ft. 4. Why would you want to land with flaps up? With flaps up your approach speed is higher, pitch attitude is higher and speed control is more difficult. Thats beautiful, totally get it! Love learning stuff like that. 4. Why would you want to land with flaps up? I kept bouncing on touchdown with them down...... but now I know why. Ill bet thats going to make my carrier traps way better too. Thanks again

Just in case you didnt know, there are some very cool ww2 mods here https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=175078 They put a lot of work getting the bombers to work right

So say Im just about to touch down, 170 knts, 50ft alt, 20 units aoa, a/c datum at 10 deg. fpm on the runway threshold (air brake out, flaps up) how would I determine my glide slope?
