Cheers Mistermann for the reply and the link. I’ll certainly look later I’m a happy lad now, I managed to get the cleared contact call and drank some kerosene - enough for the mission and to land with just below BINGO 5000. The phantom basket really threw me

Learning all the time !! This could be an issue with the logic DCS has with refuelling basket being out but not connectable without the correct terminology from the tanker “cleared contact” i have read about the issue in a few posts and wonder if this is my problem thanks anyway

Hi Firstly loving the campaign as an immersive story and the characters are excellent. I'm only into mission 2 and although I have completed it, I am not getting anywhere with the AAR. Now, I'm a commercial pilot by trade and this makes the close formation stuff all the more exciting for me and it did take some getting used to but with great help from the YouTube gurus I have a working relationship with the boom or basket, and on the single player mission F18 air to air refuel I get full tanks every time. BUT this mission I'm finding even hitting near the edge of the basket with the probe doesn't connect. I have even got within an inch of the centre and the probe passes through. Is it set ultra sensitive in the mission? Is that even possible? In the real world the basket is shaped like that to allow for a bit of wiggle room, and the single player default mission appears to work in real life, so hitting the basket slightly to one side still equals success. Sorry its long winded but Baltic Dragon is a good egg and will respond I'm sure. :)

Hi all, i love the campaign Operation Piercing Fury and have played through it twice a couple of years ago. That was probably 2.5.4 or something. Im running the stable 2.5.6 with latest patches and I’m aware of the hiccups with mission 3 and 9. I have fixed those with the updated .miz files The mission 10 appears to stop doing anything after I get the co ordinates for the first targets in the town and me and the rest of the 4 ship blow the hell out of them. I then fly around like a lemon with nothing to do. I tried labels on to see if I was missing a hard to reach target, saw 4 x GRAZ vehicles set way over to one side near a hill, blew them up too. Then as nothing again happened story line wise I flew over to the town being bombarded by friendly AI to help out there too. Still nothing I have run through with the updated A10c II also, and the same thing happens it must be me surely - there is something I’m doing or not doing that affects this mission. ?????

Yep! I bit of irritation but not the end of the world I would say. ED amaze me with the detail in these Sim models. I’m sure they are already onto a fix - which we will be informed of???
