Nope, updates states open beta only sorry. Cowboy10uk

Patch is up guys. Now updating 5gb it’s a big one

Sorry there’s OTHER fixes and updates. ;) Cowboy10uk

Yep sorry, mine had a previous update still to do, hence why it was updating. :( Didn’t realise that at the time, now at 1.5.7.11762. Not seeing the latest update yet, so guess it’s uploading to servers

Already updating, AND my new mfds have literally just arrived. :O Cowboy10uk

Historically updates have been released mid afternoon, early evening GMT. Gonna be a long day today, as despite knowing this, we are all, myself included gonna be checking the site every few mins anyway. Just in case. ;) Cowboy10uk

Hoping I can stick a few pods of smoke rockets on her, think she has the potential to make a fantastic Fac aircraft. Would add an interesting new gameplay dimension. Cowboy10uk

42, my first sim was 747 simulator on the BBC model B, way back in 1983. :O Cowboy10uk

Thanks for the update Wags, been here from the very start, (oh thanks for making me feel bloody old. ;) ) Have every intention of being here to the very end. Adore DCS. Best sim by far. Cowboy10uk

Damn you’re a bloody tease, this future update sounds stunning, sounds like a lot of changes inbound for the better. :thumbup: Cowboy10uk

Sorry since when is modern jet combat the Main Raison D’etre of DCS? Granted a long time ago when DCS didn’t exist, ED made Lockon:modern jet combat, however that was many many years ago. Now this is Digital Combat Simulation world, that’s it, and I’m sorry but ANY aircraft that can be used in a combat situation fits within that category. That covers ALL wars, Pretty much ALL aircraft that have a combat role, from Trainers, Tankers, Transport aircraft, Helos and Fighters. So the Yak fits perfectly within that description, Hell when I was serving in the RAF, even University Air Sqn Bulldogs had a combat role, be it a very minor one, but a war role all the same. Now granted Jets will always be the most sought after aircraft, most consider them the most exciting type to fly and they will always seem to be the top of the tree and to that end we have 3 very good jet aircraft all in development and due to come out soon. I wouldn’t be surprised in a few years to have the majority of the world to fly around, similar to Prepar3D, as we get more and more maps within the same sim, I’m guessing at some point they will all be able to join together. Cowboy10uk

Hell yes, very well said sir. :thumbup: Cowboy10uk

Well this news has just made the module a tad more expensive for me. Buying the wife’s Xmas pessys and somehow the Cougar MFD and a 12” screen, just happened to accidentally fall into the Basket on checkout. ;) Cowboy10uk

Ohhh does that mean The Harrier will be waiting for me to play with when I get up on the 29th then. ;) It’s gonna be a very very long day on the 29th waiting for this beauty to land. Cowboy10uk

Really, Damn I missed that. Happy days. In that case, last one hovering buys the beers. :pilotfly: Cowboy10uk

That will be interesting if it does, historically all aircraft and updates have been on a Friday haven’t they? I hope I’m wrong as desperate to fly her, but I’m not gonna hold my breath. Cowboy10uk

:O an update from Belsimtek on Mutlicrew, Damn guys that’s like finding the golden goose. Anyway joking apart, a huge thanks to Belsimtek for taking the time and addressing this. The news sounds fantastic, even more so the statement, that you think it’s only a matter of months before this comes live. That is just amazing news Thankyou. Cowboy10uk

Fantastic, another aircraft to play with, granted not gonna be suitable for battles etc, although I guess we can always stick some smoke rockets on her and play as a Fac. Gonna be great fun doing aerobatics with her and another great platform to use as a trainer. Very impressed that although we were not the target audience, it sounds like it was developed on EDs professional arm, ED has decided to allow us the oppitunity to purchase her for our hangars. Granted now we will have months of post complaining about how she’s a waste of development time, and that ED has lost their way, and what’s the point of a trainer etc etc etc, BUT I for one will be purchasing on first day. Cowboy10uk

That would be fantastic, spent many many hours at Wittering in the late 90s as it was my parent unit, not to mention Dad was a rigger there in the mid 70s, Hell I was even born there. ;) My last posting 2mt Sqn even moved into the old 1 Sqn hangar once the harriers moved out sadly. Would jump at a MP Harrier campaign for the RAF in a heartbeat. Will be following this very closely indeed. Cowboy10uk

Cheers guys, much appreciated. I do own both those modules but as stated I don’t normally fly fixed wing very often. Will go and have a play later today. :D Cowboy10uk

Lower your helmet visor???? Can we now do that in sim? If so that’s stunning, but no idea how I’ve missed it. Please tell me we can do this with the Harrier. I have to say while I’m not a fixed wing guy, I am very very excited about this module and I’m determined to learn it fully and correctly. Most modules I fly a handful of times before heading back to rotary. Cowboy10uk

Amazing video Jabbers, must confess it was the first time I’ve ever watched one of your vids, was so impressed with the quality I subscribed straight away. Can’t wait to see your other videos. Cowboy10uk

To be fair, she would be a hell of a lot of fun. Well right upto the point the mounting fails and we shoot off our own rotors. ;)

So then, now the Harrier is at pre order stage, is it time for us to find out which helo has won the vote. By the way the answer you’re looking for is the Puma. :D Cowboy10uk

Woohoo, 1 AV8B added to the hangar. Cannot wait to try this baby out Cowboy10uk
