derelor Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 If you need help, you can read my unofficial Spanish manual, I used official documents to make it. Your manual has a similar format to mine. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=143714 Regards Brisafresca I can say that you have done an outstanding job on the unofficial Spanish manual, Briscafresca, even if my Spanish is not good enough to understand most of the text :) It seems that most of the content (and more) is already included in the DCS: F-86F Flight Manual. Feel free to point out specific missing items and I will try to add them / have them added. 1338 - beyond leet ED Forum rules EN|DE|RU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kontiuka Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Thanks - please review update.I didn't read the first paragraph of 3.1.1 too carefully. My bad. My suggestions ... "The fuselage is a semi-monocoque structure, divided into forward and rear parts. The forward part hosts the air intake, the electronic equipment and armament bays, the pressurized cockpit, the radio equipment bay behind the cockpit, and the forward and aft fuel tanks. The engine is attached with trunnions of load-carrying frames in the forward fuselage. <-- Not too sure what trunnions are so I can't comment if this makes sense. The air intake channel bends around the cockpit from the bottom." In the last paragraph of 3.1.1 ... "the left and right speed brakes, and the fuel syste, system drain pipe" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donut Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I noticed that on page two of the current manual which consists of the title page cover art, it says F-86E when it should be F-86F.

gospadin Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Just a suggestion... For a US-made aircraft like the F-86, climb rates and maximum speeds should be in imperial units. Feet-per-minute (fpm), knots/mph, and feet. (Section 1.2, first paragraph) Page 14: Pounds of thrust, instead of kgf. (p14 already uses knots) Page 15: feet instead of meters Page 16: bomb weights in pounds (45kg = 100lbs, 220kg = "500" lbs, 454kg = 1000lbs, etc ), and in the US we call 12.7mm guns ".50 caliber". Page 17: engine performance in imperial units (ceiling in feet, speed in miles per hour (mph) or knots (kn.), combat radius in nautical miles (n.mi.), etc.) Page 18: fuel capacity would be listed in gallons etc. etc... Yes, I know it'd be a ton of work to change and convert all the references.

For example 400 kts (740 km/h) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kontiuka Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Thanks, please review updated document, especially the part about nose gear retraction.Looks good.

Yes, where exactly do you see a contradiction with the text in the manual ;) I hope we will be able to update all the screenshots in the manual to match all recent texture/model updates and fixes. 1338 - beyond leet ED Forum rules EN|DE|RU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
