Dear DCS Team, I believe there is a vast community of users who, like myself, commend you for your transparency, your efforts to satisfy us, and the unparalleled results we enjoy. Considering the remarkable goals already achieved and the complexity of the project, a few delays are normal. You can count on our patient respect.

Two Litening pods on A10C, shouldn'it be not possible? Folks, A while ago Snoopy mentioned in a thread re: the loading of the Litening Pod on station 2 or 10, that only one would be loaded IRL. This makes a lot of sense. (quoted below, only thread I found on this topic) Accidentally (ie being stupid as usual :cry:), I loaded in ME two Litening pods on 2 and 10 on my A10C. Good news is that switching between them during flight appears not possible. Hard to be affirmative but it seems that the right-wing one (pod 10) take precedence. Wouldn'it be better in a future release to not allow this happening in the Mission Editor? And thanks to the dev team for all the hard work to give us fun...

@Yurgon, and all Hi and best wishes for 2018. See the pictures inserted. Though to illustrate by failing a refuel purposely. :pilotfly:These are a typical situations where a normal hard surface contact between boom tip and the A10C nose would have driven the boom closer into good contact, if not straight into the connector, instead of dancing into the surface of the plane’s nose. I agree with the overall feeling. Over the past year, somehow we got rid of the overt repulsing forces when nose and boom were not contacting perfectly. But the improvement may just be one step too far in the other direction. No criticism there, I thank the developers for their great work. Just suggesting they are close to perfect but can be even closer.

Dear All, I noticed that when connecting for AAR, the tip of the boom can enter into the A10C nose outside of the connection bay without detection of the hard surfaces hitting each other and modelling of counter-forces. In other words, just before connection, or just after disconnection, the slightness movement of the planes makes the tip of the boom to traverse the A10C nose without resistance instead of bouncing back. I wonder, should the contact be more realistically mapped with hard surfaces detection for the nose and tip of the boom, whether it would help connectors not drift too far away and improve AAR success rate. Any experience/opinion on this? Best wishes 2018 Flash2

Dear ED Team, This is my first login and attempt to report a (very minor) bug on this forum. My apology if misplaced or otherwise previously known to the community. It looks like in DCS 1.5 beta (most current update), Caucasus map, airport data are reported in ‘foot’ instead of 'meter', but 'meter' unit is displayed. e.g. Sochi-Adler: Elevation 98m, RWY length 10181m. It is 98ft and 10181ft and should read 30m and 3013m, respectively. Regards, Flash2
