Wind does not influence the choice of runway for aircraft takeoff and landing. Aircraft consistently use Runway 27 for takeoff and Runway 09 for landing, or vice versa.

Dear DCS World Developers, In the Mission Editor, when plotting flight plans, please consider adding a feature to automatically calculate the aircraft's turn arc based on set speed and relevant factors (e.g., aircraft performance, G-limits). This would enhance realism and streamline mission planning. Thank you!

I am not sure now this would help. But maybe I wasn't specific enough: What I am looking for is to convert the CCS coordinates (zx,z axis in meters relative to central point on the map) to DMS.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to script flight plans directly into the mission file and need help with coordinate conversions for the Sinai map. My LUA structure for the flight plan works and loads in the editor, but my own math for converting Lat/Lon to the mission file's internal x/y coordinates is inaccurate.

Same here. We need jester to be able to recalibrate the INS while in flight.

Hi, On the ARA Vienticinco de Mayo, radio comms do not work. This was tested on 2 computers with the A-4 and F-18. I'd be great if this were fixed (or explained if I am doing something wrong) because I'd like to recreate the aborted air raids from this aircraft carrier on May 2nd, 1982. Thank you for your help. PS: This also prevents VOIP from working on SRS.

Hi, I've been piloting the A-4 for a short while now, and I've encountered a problem where the engine occasionally cuts off mid-flight. Specifically, the throttle seems to retract back to its initial setting on its own. Have you come across this problem? What solution did you find? It seems to be an issue with conflicting control binds.

Thans @Grimes for the script. I'am trying to set it up in a mission. I'd like to verify my understanding: the default level is 3 for "3. Basic randomization + enemy position based randomization". Am I right?

We need Sharm el-Sheikh airport because of its historical significance (the Israeli AB of Ophir)

Can you please add locations for Israeli fortified positions known as Maozim and Taozim. See map. Thanks Source: Simon Dunston, The Yom Kippur War 1973 (2) The Sinai, p. 10

See image : Bir Hasanah has been misplaced while Bir Tamada has been ignored. Thanksnull

I’ve tested the map above central sinai and it looks great. There are though very few human settlements in the area

thank you @Strikeeagle345 I'll put the values below so they will remain even after your screenshot will be deleted: Slider = checked Invert = unchecked User curve = cheked Values = 0 7 15 23 32 41 51 62 74 86 100

can you pls post your settings again? The image has been removed.

Thank you for this script. Can you pls share the parameters you used to enable the AI to loft bombs to the target?

you can find the list here (at 22'45")

Same for me

bump It is especially important to know if it is a block 48 or prior or a block 49 and beyond since the latter has got Leading Edge slats.

With the increasing number of cold war AI assets, and may campaigns and mission to be made for this era, toss or loft bombing should become a thing for the AI. E.g., I am reading lots of material on SEAD/DEAD in the Middle East and Vietnam in the 1960s and 70s and I can't help but notice toss bombing was widely used. Actually, it has been used up until operation Desert Storm, in 1991. Thank you for your consideration null

In a book titled Patrolling the Cold War Skies, author Philip Keeble and ex-RAF pilot wrote: Unfortunately, the author does not elaborate anymore than that. I am looking for more information on this abbreviation. E.g. how would it look like when used to describe a bombing fit? A recce fit? Etc. Thanks

Hi, I noticed over the course of the last few weeks in several missions the pod would only record red air emitters and completely ignore land based red emitters. So I made a custom mission to test the U22/A ability to record land based red signals. It did not record any even though I’ve been painted several times by SAM systems and one of them fired at my plane. Find attached the info file, trk file, tacview file and miz file.

Thanks Oluf

thanks for the links esp. to the swedish AF manuals. In the following manual Fpl AJ 37 speciell förarinstruktion (SFI) del 2 (M7780-400172), on p. 152 (after a detailed description on the use of the Lysbomber) under ANFALL BOMBER, it says Utges senare which means to be issued later. In the other manuals, I can't find anything regarding the use of SB/71s (Save System 37 but it is not as detailed as the AF manuals). Does anyone have a declassified AF manual with details regarding the use of SB/71s?

Hello HB, After contacting ED through a support ticket, I was directed to you regarding the following: ED's reply was: @IronMike can you help, please. AI road base does not take-off.trk

I've just updated mission 1. You may downloaded it from here and fly it as a standalone mission or replace the original mission 1 file in the campaign folder (to do the latter, you'll have to change the file name to match that of mission 1 in the campaign folder). Note: radio communications are handled differently now. You must tune to the proper radio channels to receive radiocomms. E.g. keep the mission with the radio on ch. A until you hear a message asking you to switch to 264 AM (ch. 110). Godspeed!
