  1. A couple of big settle at the ramps this week :) N9u3PXZzlfc
  2. Ha ha very kind of you Bob. I was amazed at how consistent everyone was. It’s awesome to see everyone basically flies the same path each pass. We cannot wait for the full module, it’ll really shake the tree :D
  3. Start of the year, new cruise coming up, time to re-Carrier Qual! We have overlayed each pilots landings so the video doesn't run too long... RPCTiupsRJk
  4. Thanks Buckeye. We generated 40 PLAT films this year (one of my PCs broke for a few weeks around mid year). This has taught us a great deal about how to score the passes in a way to encourage safe approaches. I’d be keen to know if people like the LSO shorthand we have on each approach? Over the year it’s really helped embed the meanings for us but also highlight trends for each pilot. (I OSX a lot and need to widen my downwind).

  6. That’s awesome Big Newy.
  7. That is awesome though. Would it be possible to generate a 2D in game window for VR users (like a kneeboard?). When I view through Oculus it shows as fully zoomed out (as does our current one). At the moment I run an entirely independent PC purely for recording PLAT cam videos. To LSO in VR we have a crosshair the requires closing one eye and theres no way to zoom in. Also it would be great to be able to toggle up to vultures row as well. We have a bunch of carrier views I made for the Bush mod but it means editing the entry.lua each time you wish to move places. Just dreams but am extremely pleased to see the progress.
  8. Wow great find, I was unaware of this! Thanks brother will check it out :)
  9. Thanks Max! We’ve stopped filming the rejoins now as every has improved greatly and is up to speed with what is required. Zj_UA94wsqk

  13. Fantastic ...you realise this means war :D
  14. Hey guys, we returned the favor, check our PLAT from 11/24/17 (latest)
  15. -ldcjI20B5s A special shout out to CVW-8 ;) http://www.cvw-8.org
  16. H1TgADwusB8 Some of our guys demonstrate a join up that is the reason we started recording the join-ups!

  18. This week something new, flights are timed from cat shot to successful join up on the lead aircraft in port holding pattern. This week was TRIGGER & BANGER versus JAR & CURVEBALL, there was a clear winning team! tlFujqWxngI

  20. Hi guys, apologies if the various mods we promote are starting to be incompatible with newer versions of DCS. VFA-113 maintain a copy of DCS 1.5.6.5199 for use with our mods as this was the pinnacle of mod stability for us. Also we only contributed to the Bush, I believe it’s orignally a Tomcatz mod, worked on by Morkva55, Alf7, myself, CDPKobra and the incredible meatball/LRLS by Anubis. Our last mission was 6 Hornets for 2.5 hours with no respawn, launch from the Bush, each aircraft refueling 3 times from the RAAF tanker, A2A/A2G and recovery to the Bush. I understand folks have fixes available for mods but at the present I’m recommending VFA-113 and VFA-83 guys to keep their updated DCS Worlds mod-free for the upcoming official releases and just use our copies of 1.5.6.5199 for our combat missions.
  21. Great works guys, really enjoy these videos and screens. Nice work on the simpsons animation.
  22. Thanks very much guys, that’s very nice of you. We’re not the original creators of everything in the package, there is a great community here :) We’ve just managed to net together a lot of the best stuff from some really great people. Here’s our latest PLAT film which features our newest US Navy mod. Per NATOPs aircraft hold over the carrier in a Port Holding Pattern. We use this on departure from the ship to all join up before each flight heads to target. Joining means flying to the middle of the pattern and flying out on the lead aircrafts ‘bearing line’ before crossing under. A lot of new pilots tend to chase the leads tail in a ‘sucked’ rejoin. We wanted to improve this skill to get faster join ups and better tanker joins, so have made a new external view and alignment overlay. It’s like a PLAT cam for wingman rejoins. We’re all a bit shaky at it but am already seeing a lot of improvement. Re3pbmuODfo
  23. Hi all, due to the exciting frequency and expansive changes to DCS World we settled on a version that was most stable/compatible with the Hornet/Bush/MRTT mods (1.5.6.5199) and made a copy of that install. The carrier mods are extremely complex and we are now maintaining a clean DCS World for updates and new aircraft. Our fingers are crossed that we will have a much more advanced Hornet soon.
