For the MiG-21, the default key is . (period) instead of Left Alt + '. Addition to Burger's post: at point 1, substitute 'Blue' with your coalition ;)

IIRC some airfields only allow takeoffs in one direction, and landings in the other (e.g. Sochi Adler)

Joined the club with Flanker 2.0, set up the Dutch Flanker Display Team in 2001, and still going strong.

Three more: The Belgian F-16 demo in 2016 with a misbehaving engine(which surged halfway through its display)

Not Block 50, but I thought I'd share some nice F-16 pictures: F-16C Block-52+ 'Zeus' by Bas Weijers, on Flickr F-16AM RNLAF passing Volkel Tower by Bas Weijers, on Flickr Flare Display by Bas Weijers, on Flickr In the clouds by Bas Weijers, on Flickr Light the fires by Bas Weijers, on Flickr F-16AM Static by Bas Weijers, on Flickr

Glider student here with 59 logged winch starts on an ASK-21 at the moment. Since I couldn't find a suitable option, I didn't vote.

This has been mentioned somewhere else on this forum, the solution for most was to remove all mods, and then clean and repair your DCS.

I also had this problem, but solved it using instructions in this post: falling through ground in multiplayer #16 Haven't had the problem afterwards.

Had this issue again twice this evening. Took off in a MiG-21 in the PG map and crashed. Spawned again, and fell through the ground. Restarted DCS and made a successful flight (again with the MiG-21) and was even able to land. After a hot refuel on the platform, I throttled up to start taxiing again, and fell through the ground. After that, DCS crashed (a DXDiag crash report is on its way to ED). Please fix this, it is making the game unplayable.

Just started to have this as well, in the harrier on a multiplayer server. Fell through the ground on landing, then DCS crashed. Restarted DCS, and after that, any aircraft I entered fell through the ground before DCS crashed again.

Your pictures aren't working. I also visited the show, and had a great time there, despite the weather. Here are some of my pictures from Kubinka, still going through the post editing process...

IIRC it defines who can transfer (or take) control of the aircraft. If for example it is set to Instructor, the instructor can take control without asking the student first.

I plan on putting up a screen with a live feed on our stand at the Houten Digitaal fair. Let's hope our internet connection is fast enough.

Had great fun with several guys from the Dutch/Flemish 'Combatflight' DCS community. The Su-27 was one of the highlights for us.

If there is only a toggle, you could do something like this: {down = iCommandPlaneAHCPHUDModeDayNight, up = iCommandPlaneAHCPHUDModeDayNight,name = _('HUD Mode switch Day/Night ON/OFF sw'), category = _('Armament HUD Control Panel')}, This will toggle between day and night when you flick the switch. Only drawback is that the state can be reversed based on the position of the switch when you enter your plane.

You can also take out all the engines and turn it into a giant glider.

I will be there, as are most of the DFDT team. Let's hope the weather plays nice, last year at Sanicole it was a bit wet...

Too bad downed pilots aren't synced in multiplayer though

Axalp is great indeed. Never been there myself (yet) but going by stories and videos of previous events. Only drawback there is that they cancel quite often due to bad weather, either on the mountain, or at Meiringen Airbase in the valley. For a list of all the showdates in Europe, check the link below: http://www.scramble.nl/show-dates/europe/date I'm visiting Radom this year, and some shows in the Netherlands (Texel) and Belgium (Kleine Brogel).

Well, there is the Radom Airshow in Poland this year, which might be interesting.

Would there be any DCS flying involved, or only beer? ;) I'm all for an event where we can fly missions together all weekend!

Very sad news indeed. Age 57 is way too young to go. My thoughts are with his family, friends and loved ones...

How not to test a jet engine: Z8zy7XCXhd0

Greek F-16 scorching the runway at Gilze-Rijen Airbase on takeoff, showing the power of an afterburner The F-16 on the second picture in my other post had a leak in the fuel line to the afterburner. Sometimes the fuel just oozed out, like in this picture

Got some afterburner pics for you :) This is what an afterburner flame should look like (Belgian F-16AM taking off from Volkel Airbase during an exercise) This is what it definately should NOT look like (it failed a few minutes after I took this picture) "Burp" (French Mirage-2000D taking off from Leeuwarden airbase during an exercise)
