Just pull the power back once airborne to slow your acceleration.

You left out the Buccaneer. The Brits are never going to let you hear the end of that.

And just think how much better the Strike Eagle will be if the CFTs can be removed! Am I right!? (Sorry. I couldn't control myself)

Speaking for myself, this is good enough. Thanks, IronMike. I know you guys are making the best effort.

This is actually really good news. I mean, if they weren’t going to make 2022 they would have announced that already, right? Right?

I agree 100%. Skepticism is always a healthy approach regarding pilots’ stories. But I don’t see why they would lie about manually sweeping the wings, so long after the fact. Embellish the effectiveness of their own flying? Sure. But the manual wing sweep thing rings true with me. And I do agree with Rustbelt above. I can see it being a “gamer” move but not something one would do going up against a Sicilian. You know, when death was on the line!

Significant change. I had started to frequent the Enigma server and often encountered enough stutters to make it unenjoyable and downright unplayable sometimes. Now with the 5800X3d it's like night and day with little to no stuttering at all. For me it was well worth the money, and for my purposes (which is almost exclusively DCS) it looks like I'll be able to avoid the big Zen 4 upgrade until the 8000 series at the earliest. As I wrote above, I am very satisfied with my 5600X to 5800X3D upgrade.

Very likely. But it also might entice people to upgrade their AM4 CPU's when they otherwise wouldn't be inclined to do so because of the expense of adopting Zen 4. I.e., new CPU, motherboard, RAM, and maybe power supply. That's how they got me to replace my 5600X with the 5800X3D, and I am very satisfied with the results. Edit: FYI I fly exclusively in VR if that makes a difference to you.

They may be saving the DTC for last to avoid making additional changes as functions are added or modified while in early access.

You need to lower them on the downwind leg so you can get on speed. Just be below 225 as Jayhawk wrote above.

You may have lowered them at too high an airspeed. Also, I don't recall any warning lights when flaps get stuck down.

Immersion is sitting in the cockpit with your helmet on during engine startup. At least with F2 you can pretend you're the plane captain with no hearing protection. Or... Do F2, then CTRL + F11 (jump to free camera), then maneuver yourself back into the cockpit area.

Ok, yes. I see what you mean now. I agree the Corsair has seemed so close for so long.

I don't know if I'd say it's weird. They are a small team (I think), probably doing this in their spare time (again, I think), so lack of a communication plan would be understandable.

Yes, that's as designed. But apparently some of the pilots who flew it over the years learned to use the emergency wing sweep handle, allowing them to set the wings outside of the computed parameters. Boys will be boys, I guess.

Can you just use the F2 external view?

The nice thing in DCS is you can just respawn if you screw it up. And by the way, your Skipper hates you too because you are reducing readiness.

There are a number of enthusiastic DCS dogfighters out there who like to manually control the wing sweep during a fight. Recent online interviews with various F-14 pilots indicate this was an actual technique in real life.

I have no issue with excluding the Hornet and Viper, but isn’t there an option in the Mission Editor to exclude the JHMCS for both of those jets? Disregard. It was pointed out to me that players can still select them from the F10 menu

Nothing. I just really, really want the F-8 more than anything else. With so little news about it, I think, “But where is my F-8 Crusader?” every time a new module is announced.

Everyone hates free market pricing until it's their own product selling for top dollar.
