Snoopy Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) The 476th is proud to provide our 476th vFG FLIP to the DCS Community. Updated to include Nevada expansion airports. NOTE: Mag Var for these charts is only valid for missions dated in the mission editor as 2011 This was created using real world charts (airport diagrams are made from scratch) with applicable information updated specific to DCS World. The TACAN approaches for Creech are very low quality, we will be updating these eventually. We hope you enjoy, updates will happen when needed. Download here.

Eddie Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Indeed, but the real world charts do not match 100% with what we see in DCS. The real charts are of course workable and we've had a pack of them available on the 476th site for download for a while, but nothing beats having a FLIP tailored specifically for the sim. We'll also be including many of the Nellis departure and recovery procedures and other details that are not available on airnav.

Volator Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Thank you Snoopy! Do you also plan to include VFR procedures for Nellis and Creech in possible future releases? 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Thank you Snoopy! Do you also plan to include VFR procedures for Nellis and Creech in possible future releases? Well technically as they're VFR procedures, they aren't charted and so wouldn't be in the FLIP. They are part of the Nellis In Flight Guide IRL. But they may be added depending on what we do with our Nellis/NTTR IFG and if it's made public one done, although at the least I think it'll be necessary to redraw the visual representations of each departure and arrival for clarity.

They are part of the Nellis In Flight Guide IRL. I'm not sure if we are talking about the same thing or if it's a misconception of FLIP on my side, but there surely must be a publication (called Visual Operation Chart) for VFR approaches and departures in the USAF. In the German Air Force we certainly have them, and they look like this (Find these absolutely excellent charts made by an enthusiast for the DCS community here, most DCS users will already know them) 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know about the charts you referenced, we used them initially until we developed our FLIPs because we wanted to mirror USAF procedures.

We know about the charts you referenced, we used them initially until we developed our FLIPs because we wanted to mirror USAF procedures. That's interesting, I assumed all NATO air forces pretty much use a common/standardized set of charts. I just found the real world IMC and VMC plates for Nellis AFB & Creech AFB in your download section. This is what my heart was longing for :) I hadn't known about them before. Thank you very much for your excellent work! It's a giant leap towards more realism in this sim. 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where a visual depiction of a visual procedure is desired they can be made of course as with the Nellis visual recoveries and departures, but as the whole point of a visual procedure is that it is flown visually rather than looking at and flying by a chart they aren't part of the flight info pubs. The visual depictions of VFR procedures are just there to help describe the procedure to pilots unfamiliar with it, and are part of the Nellis IFG, not any FLIP. The charts you speak of are well made, but not in keeping with USAF procedures at least, and to my mind at least they are somewhat redundant from the start. If you're relying on coordinates and looking at a chart etc. then it's not a visual procedure.
