@Legs Hard to say. I was planning on doing the update for the AH-64 once the FCR becomes available. I'm way too caught up in the Strike Eagle at the moment to start working on other guides, especially since some people were not pleased that I've spent time working on updating the L-39, German warbirds and Gazelle during the last few months. It's a tough situation to be in; whatever I choose to spend time and energy on, someone somewhere will think I should be doing something else.

It's really sad to know that there is people so entitled with the works others do for free in benefit of this hobby 🙄 .. please know that not everyone is like that, I'm happy with whatever Guide you choose to do or update, in fact I enjoy to be surprised when you come out with a new Guide 🙏

Don't let yourself be put under pressure. We know that you do this voluntarily and that you invest a lot of time and work in these guides (and the quality and content are sometimes better than many manuals...)

On the KA-50 control setup page the Warthog throttle boat switch, ministick, and left throttle button have arrows pointing to them indicating something should be mapped to these but there are no labels. Bug or works as intended?

Chuck, it seems that there is a problem between M2000 and F14 guides about CCRP and CCIP.

On the F14 guide, CCIP is a dive attack (unguided bomb p361) and on the M200 guide, CCIP is a horizontal attack (p213). The dive attack on the M2000 is described as CCRP mode.

Not sure about the F-14 but for the M2000 this is correct, the only authorized CCIP release profile is a low level <650ft AGL 500 knot level release. CCRP (CCPL) has dive-dive, dive-level, and dive-toss releases. It’s in the manual.

CCRP and CCIP are merely terminology to describe the calculation method for delivery, that it, either showing the pilot where the bomb will land, or showing him where they need to be for the bomb to land on given coordinates.

The Mirage 2000 and F-14 have completely different avionics and philosophies of employment. Thus, both guides are correct.

Hi @Charly_Owlany ETA for the F-15E guide?

No meant to put any pressure on you, I just need an approximate idea (ETA still means "estimate") of the release date to plan what to study next 😉

In b4: 2 weeks 🤣

Too soon to tell. Still working on the Sensors section. I should be in a better position to have an accurate ETA once I'm done with the Weapons section.

Hi @Charly_Owl,

I went back to my Jeff after a long time and I've noticed the WMD-7 lasing procedure procedure is outdated: there are no more AUTO/MANUAL lasing modes, as well as no "Laser Designator ON/OFF" binding. You can only turn ON/OFF the laser using one of the WMD-7 MPCD OSB keys (as far as I've noticed, laser seems to auto turn off after the impact).

Can you please update the jeff guide when/if you have some spare time?  I think sections to be updated should be: Part12, 2.4 and 2.5 only.

Thank you in advance.

So far, this is my roadmap for the upcoming months:

  • Will be releasing a Quick F-4E guide on Friday (start-up, takeoff and landing).
  • After that, back to the F-15E air-to-air and IFF sections
  • After, updates to the F-16C, F/A-18C, A-10C are planned (especially with regards to datalink)
  • After, back to the F-15E until guide completion
  • After, AH-64D update

The F-15E guide is in an advanced state (with sensors and air-to-ground weapons being done), but the two big sections remaining are air-to-air weapons and navigation. Once those are done, the remaining sections should be relatively quick to complete.
