Which brings me too my most desired function which is the "Undo" button...

And how do you get that?

Do you get the blast effect?

Hi All, I was hoping someone could point me to a way to add a high order detonation to simulate a small nuke or small to medium yield tactical nuke. I know this isn't native to DCS world as there appears to be a 10,000 lbs TNT limit in M.E. I'm aware of the nuke for the Mig 21 (?) but I'm looking for a way to detonate on a (ground) vehicle/truck, etc. Is there a way to exceed the 10,000 possibly with a script? Thanks in advance, John

Yeah, but what if the conditions are 0/0 with heavy fog requiring an ILS approach? The wind would 0 as well...

I've found that the ILS at Kobuleti hasn't worked for awhile.

I remember we got an Intel briefing on this just after it occurred. It happened just after I got back from my last Afghanland deployment and used the Pedro Pave Hawks we flew in from Kandahar. It sounded pretty intense esp. for the PJ's on the ground. https://news.yahoo.com/10-pilot-repeatedly-drew-fire-222930478.html?guccounter=1 It's pretty pathetic that it took ten years for the Pentagon bureaucracy to upgrade it to the DFC.

For the life of me I can't seem to be able to use that thumb rotary to zoom in and out. The small analog up/down lever works fine for that but I would rather use the rotary as it seems more natural movement for that function. I also haven't had any luck mapping the Flaps lever to flaps. I suspect the fix is similar but I can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated, John

Hi, I was wondering if you were still willing to Beta test a portion of my campaign. You can reply with a PM here or directly at John.schiller@gmail.com. Thanks, John Hi, I was wondering if you were still willing to Beta test a portion of my campaign. You can reply with a PM here or directly at John.schiller@gmail.com. Thanks, John

If you are willing, I could use the testing. Send me your email so I can send you the link.

Yeah. That's fine. Let me know when you are ready. I'll have to share the file via Dropbox.

Copy that Thanks

Is there a reason or just oversight?

Good Stuff. Checklist format. Just the way I like it.

Sorry Man, I hate to be an also-ran but one thing I distinctly remember about my 2 Viper incentive flights were arming the seats on the Arm/Dearm Ramps at the end of the runway. Great effort, though. They look great. Thanks for the work.

Oh absolutely. The most common complaint I've heard from the (many) Commanders I've worked with is how much time they have to spend dealing with the daily flood of emails and meetings. Leaves very little time for flying. Mostly, they are barely able to keep their hours up to stay on-status.

And an update to this story on LtCol Marks... https://taskandpurpose.com/culture/air-force-a-10-most-experienced-pilot-john-karl-marks/

Not necessarily. In the Air Force, you don't get promoted by Time In Service (TIS) except for the first three enlisted and first two Officer grades which are automatic (pending qualifying EPR's and OERs). When you get to O-5 to O-6 you have to meet several Professional Military Educational (PME) gates such as Air War College or something similar as well as some command time as an O-5. So, to make O-6, you essential "select" that track knowing that you will do a lot less flying and much more chair-bound duties such as Sq CC, Ops Group CC or Vice or Wing CC, etc or (god-forbid) time at the Pentagon. Many, many aircrew would rather spend their time flying as opposed to, in my estimation, performing much less gratifying, non-operational duties of command. You can also have a much bigger direct-impact on mentoring and educating the next generation by simply staying operational as a Flight Lead and/or Ops Officer (who, in my estimation, are the REAL rubber-hits-the-road day-to-day leader of the squadron). That is exactly how I directed my enlisted career by choosing to stay an operationally assigned squadron medic knowing that Master Sergeant was the furthest I could go in my 34 years (as a Master). As opposed to seeking promotion to Senior or Chief and having to sell-my-soul to the Devil himself by moving to an assignment in a large medical hospital-type unit and dealing with insane Nurse "Leaders" and the like. I don't regret that decision one little bit knowing that I spent my whole (medical) career deploying with my squadron-mates in a (very in-demand) Combat Rescue unit and having direct input on CSAR medical doctrine and TTP development.

Hats off to LtCol Marks... https://taskandpurpose.com/news/air-force-a-10-warthog-desert-storm-pilot/

Would be nice to be able to double click a Unit or Group from within the Trigger Panel and then have that Unit or Group be highlighted on the left of the Trigger Panel. That way you wouldn't have to exit the Trigger Panel to find the Unit or Group which you are working with. Not a big deal but would make things that much easier. Thanks, John

Agreed. My mistake. Yeah that's DCS Poti in the background. So, the problem persists...

Well, I stand corrected and I apologize ED. The TGP "Hop" as I call it is a real thing. Look at exactly 1:00 on this video just as he is coming off target... Again E.D., my apologies. John

Just finished reading this journal of a young Lieutenant's combat deployment to Desert Storm. It may change your idea of how military missions are flown and carried out. Brought back a lot of memories of my deployment there. In any event, it was a thoroughly enjoyable read and I found myself having a tough time putting it down. Highly recommended.
