cfarsr Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Good campaigns so far from Maple Flag but I've come into a sticking point. For the illumination flares mission, I release all the flares at the appropriate times over their targets (all 3), get a subsequent call out of "Good Illumination" or something to that effect and then, ....nothing. I use the F10 menus and make my calls for fence out, circled Kobuleti until all of the flares actually landed, landed at Kobuleti (and got no call out from the FE) and as I'm swinging around in the revetment that I usually park in, get a call out to shut the bird down and he'll give me a score after I'm done. After shutting down properly I get.....nothing. When I go to boot back (hopefully) the next mission it puts me back into the illumination mission. Anyone have any ideas? Push come to shove, how might I be able to skip this mission (through the editor or what have you)? Many thanks, Chris
cfarsr Posted March 9, 2016 Author Posted March 9, 2016 FYI Went through a few times and finally had a success. I think even though I was dropping the flares to make the targets visible, its imperative to stick to the waypoints so as triggers their progression to the next point automatically in the TAD. Sabre had a quick response. Much appreciated, wouldn't hesitate to get another campaign.
bunraku Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 Quick question. Did you go straight to WP7 looking for the convoy from WP6 or did you loiter? I loitered and keep going out the MAO. I wish I could see a clear border.
cfarsr Posted March 11, 2016 Author Posted March 11, 2016 Easiest way for me to not go out of the MOA was to stay south of the river. Also to pick up the targets faster I was changing their elevation in the cdu to 0.

You could create a few to mark the boundaries of the MOA if that would help. MapleFlagMissions - Read Our Blog for Updates

cfarsr Posted March 12, 2016 Author Posted March 12, 2016 My apologies, yes. I was going into each waypoint and chasing their altitude to zero
