Friggin Sick!!

I for one.. completely understand what he's saying. I really wish that a training syllabus comparable to what is offered for the A-10, would be offered for other modules. I don't mind reading at all. But if the opportunity presents itself, I learn much quicker by *doing*, and will almost always choose that method.

^ This...

@Szketya95 Do you mind sharing a photo of the back of the Viper ICP? Id like to see how I can secure it in position before purchasing.

I can already hear - "Dude in the Hornet is landing on the runway at whatever airport I'm at...check it."

Link to Discord please?

I actually don't expect anything, other than for you to respect other's, and myself, the way you want to be respected. I actually looked at your initial response and opted to sit on it and give serious thought on how to respond, because after all, you're a (hopefully) decent human being on the other end of this conversation, and had I immediately responded to what my initial interpretation was....well...that would not have ended well. With that said, thank you for your condolences. They are appreciated.

I highly doubt it, based on the crews experience level, but...what if it was? I wasn't privvy to the results of the accident investigation. Dude... Please... I'm trying really hard to give you the benefit of doubt because so many arguments stem from how a statement is perceived, rather than how it was implied.And I know you are better than that. Help me out here. @Dragon1-1 Exactly.

I really*really* hope that you are not implying that my friends are dead because they were too stupid to look at a line on a paper map. Please explain yourself.

I know from personal experience(s) that in some cases the Wire Strike Protection System on helicopters can only do so much. A helicopter most likely will not survive striking a high voltage high tension power line. I flew with a Chinook crew, that much to my horror, all perished a week after, from striking power lines draped across a river. https://www.chinook-helicopter.com/history/aircraft/D_Models/90-00201/90-00201.html

I'm not a pilot, but the fact that the hose and basket was it's own self contained apparatus located directly on the tail of the aircraft, versus attached to a boom or out near the wingtip, likely made for a more stable and predictable approach and fueling cycle. But like I said.. I'm not a pilot.

Yeeaaaahh..... With great disappointment, I'm thinking its about time to unchain that strongly worded email.

As of 16SEPT 2024, I have not received my shirt. Granted, I didn't purchase the F-4 module just so I could have a 'cool airplane shirt', but I will most definitely not pay extra money for early access and promises of 'extra's' in the future.

For Crystal users... How I finally got things to work for me: Open Pimax Play Once headset shows 'Connected'- Room settings • Follow instructions • Minimize to taskbar Start DCS On DCS landing page, or when in a/c cockpit: Go to keyboard: •Control+NUM pad #5 (Re-centers view in-game) If you want the IP closer, you can lean back, look straight ahead and CTRL+Num pad #5. This will place the IP closer to you when you resume your normal seating position. If the IP is still not close enough, you can zoom/enlarge the IP through the Open XR toolkit via the CTRL+F2 menu. If you're trying to reset the default camera view, see the previous comments.
