Revelation

No. You do that during the startup procedures. You can takeoff from land without ever pressing the button to reset the trim without any consequence; other than some annoying warnings. You set trim for carrier launches during the pre-flight checklist.

I'm 100% correct. Pressing the Trim Reset is part of the startup process, no reason to mention it when it will not be the culprit for an aircraft climbing after takeoff. Maybe you quoted the wrong person, but I made no mention of just pressing the Trim Reset button....

You only need to set the takeoff trim for carrier launches.

Yes, that will come in Phase 2. Until the Hornet has its A/G radar in place, I wouldn't even begin to think about the Viper getting it. One caveat there. With the APG68(v5) we are not getting SAR mapping and it is possible the code they developed long ago for Pulse-Doppler could lend to the Viper getting A/G at an earlier development time in comparison to the Hornet. Either way the Hornet will get A/G first.

That is correct; it was based off of the US Navy variant.

Because the Navy doesn't use the 97/105 in real life.

Have you considered they don't have the licensing signed to use the Fighting Falcon name?

Over the Syria map.

Buahahahahhaa... Brilliant if you ask me.

Yes.

Most believe it is the Syria map. I haven't seen anything that is unequivocally identifiable to know for sure.

Start with the basics. Start-up, takeoff, landing, AAR, General purpose (unguided) weapon deliver, Guided weapon deliver, BFM, BVR, etc... Take one topic and work on it until you feel you have a good grasp of how to perform said task. *EDIT* There are a lot of youtube videos out there that can provide an introduction into the ins and outs of how to anything you want in the Hornet. The training missions are also really well done and there are a lot of them. Early release manual is all there is at this time. Wags had mentioned, in another thread, that an update is coming with details on features that have been added. I don't own that stick, so I cannot comment on the issues you are having. I would encourage you to be sure that you don't have multiple buttons or axis assigned to different inputs. That is typically what trips up most new pilots. If that is not the case, then hopefully someone with that stick can chime in and be of better assistance for you.

I believe so.

Bought.

I am perfectly aware that they are on the same version. Here's my original reply: Here's how a poster replied to me: I ask what was incorrect about my statement as his very post validated what I typed. He then went on to reply as such: Next week, the 29th, does in fact fall on the Stable Release update schedule. That is a FACT. Just because there are no updates does not change the original schedule of rotating updates between OB and Stable. Another FACT. Just because an update week falls on a certain branch, does not mean one is absolutely coming. AGAIN! State where anything I have typed is wrong.... If you are going to chime in at least read the entirety of the conversation....

Again. The 22nd was OB update day, according to the normal schedule of things. It was stated that they were trying to get the JSOW out this month so people assumed it was going to be released on the 22nd. Next week, the 29th falls on Stable Release update. There's nothing wrong with that logic. It didn't work out that way and ED/Wags never gave a specific date.

What is incorrect about my statement? Go ahead, I am waiting.....

That was mentioned in the Russian forums.

Not yet, the pre-order starts on Friday. There was a mixup with dates with everything else going on.

No offense man, you might have missed the posts then. It was mention by Wags that ED was looking to get the JSOW out this month. Today, the 22 of May, falls on the Open Beta update schedule. Most assumed it was today; turns out the OB update has been pushed to 24 May. There has been no confirmation that I have seen that the JSOW is getting released on 24 May. It may very well come next month. We have to wait and see what ED has in store for us.

No one said anything about Navigation. You need to make sure your IFF and D/L are turned on. You then need to place your TDC cursor over the radar contact and press Sensor Select Depress (if I remember correctly) to activate IFF interrogation process. A friendly will return as a green contact. An unknown will stay yellow and a hostile will go red. For the Hornet system to positively ID a contact as hostile it needs two forms of ID. That can be multiple aircraft via D/L. If can also be your IFF and NCTR.

I'd love to Flamin, I really would. Simply put, other posters have refused to engage in civil dialogue and they get the level of respect they deserve. While it's not constructive to the topic, watching them lie and engage in dishonest debate tactics is fun...

Citation needed. The fact that you cannot grasp the difference between a zoom and a computer assisted/controlled AAR is beyond intriguing.... We've been over this, you are wrong and you are "reaching" to try and justify your position that easy refuel will train people to be better at AAR. Again, completely unrelated. Maybe it would be easier for you to just uninstall DCS.... No it does not. Maybe you should learn how to better design missions so you don't have to engage in fratricide to land. Incorrect. The landing is not easier, simply that the repercussion from a bad landing are non-existent. You still have no clue what you are talking about. No. It does not make landing easier. You still have to land. Active Pause simply allows one to take a "breather." By your logic Active Pause makes you better at AAR, when in fact it does not. You still have to land the plane, it takes your skill to put it on the ground. Nothing you have listed makes it easier to put it on the ground. You are ignorant of basic logic. Whether it takes complete control or partial control you are not learning the fine motor skills needed to AAR on your own and you are no better for it. That is a plain and simple fact that you continually ignore. For it to show you how to do AAR it has to have complete control. Unless you are referring to visual or audio queues that I have already mentioned would be good for new pilots. Right, you don't have to adjust the frequency or use the correct radio. You just press a button and the system does it for you. It's "easy" and you fail to grasp the basics of how the radios in game work. I cannot count the number of times people gotten a server that had easy radios disabled and they complained because they didn't know how to get it go work. You actually just proved my point in regards to easy refuel. And if you only flew in game mode you wouldn't know how any o the systems worked and you would be completely ineffective in sim mode. Again, you just proved my point... Maybe you cannot read where I have said any form prevents you from learning the fine motor skills of AAR. Quit being disingenuous, you have not "gotchas" to rely on here. You obviously have no clue what my vision is. You clearly haven't read my responses as I have specifically not said strictly complete control. Day refueling CANNOT teach you the fine motor skills for AAR. What planet do you live on where you believe such nonsense? My vision, as you put it, is based off of the Flight Sim industry of the past several decades. So do tell, genius, what is your vision that is so hard for us mere mortals to grasp? Divine fallacy has no place in this discussion as it was not used. You keep trying to catch-phrases to support your position and you are falling flat on your face. Wow, that is so profound of you. I can AAR I don't need to man-up and take responsibility for my lack of dedication. Again, will you? Actually I have. You simply refuse to accept facts. You keep bringing up how zoom makes it easier to land - BS. Zoom has nothing to do with landing. You then state that bombing runways makes it easier to land - BS. Fratricide is not a solution to bad mission design. You then state invulnerability makes it easier to land - BS. This will not entice a player to learn the mechanics of a proper landing and will result in bad habits. This does not make landing easier. You then state ignoring ATC makes it easier to land - BS. ATC does nothing for or against landing. ATC does not guide you in nor does it fly the aircraft for you. You cited that easy refuel will help train people at AAR - BS. Pilots will not learn the fine motor skills to stay in position to get gas. You have provided no facts or substance to substantiate your position. As I have said - very clearly for the laymen to understand. It's not needed as it will not benefit someone that wants to learn AAR properly. If ED adds it fine. Simply admit that you do not have the patience and discipline to learn to do it right. Quit hiding behind the BS you can "train" with it. Yes, your excuses are invalid for not learning AAR the proper way. Just admit you don't have what it takes and you need an easy button. We can all get on with our day. Any disparagement you feel you have suffered is brought on solely by your ineffective communication, false declarations of attacks, personal strife and general lack of intelligence to have a respectable conversation. Again, YOU get the level of respect YOU deserve. Are you seriously so obtuse you don't know what a study-level sim is?

Not sure what you are asking. Are you asking why not both? Or are you asking why the other poster does not care if they are in?

You miss the point of the conversation. If ED adds an easy refuel option, cool. Where I take issue is when an intellectual dishonest person claims it will teach people AAR.
