Bizarro

What the actual F*** That setup is insane. Gotta love the Pepsi bottle.

That pretty much sums it all. I loved when in the Sukhois u used to sneak behind and under some unsuspecting bandit using EO, and they immediately started to drop flares when shooting a R73. And no, it wasn't an A10C.

Same here. I was cold starting in a mp server doing my thing when the world turned blueish white and Jester ejected. Then all faded to black. What a way to go. Plane slid backwards off the deck in a couple of minutes.

I'm having issues reading the cockpit too, compared to most of the other modules. 2D track ir user here. I find specially difficult reading speed and altitude while carrier landing. And some switches are difficult too. I however found out that it helps a lot setting the instruments and console bright to Max even at daylight. Is not perfect but most of the stuff is slightly more readable that way.

Same issue here

Hey all! , first post in the forum. Just another little tip that can make the difference between a successful takeoff or having a swim in the black sea when going on or above max take off weight. Just use your cobra button! Not listed in manuals, probably against the operational doctrine and whatnot, but it works, specially in multiplayer where 99% of the carriers I see are wrongly configured, ie stationary or a very low pace, with crosswind etc. The cobra button will allow you to maintain a much higher angle of attack, that the fight control system doesn't, making you able to gain enough speed before falling. It just needs some practices with how much sick you need to pull.
