Flight Qualifications Campaign - Interested?

Thanks. Tried that as well, without success. I've noticed other thing, though. Distance indicator for gun started working OK, if the first target lock after beginning of the mission was done in rockets/missiles mode, or if I locked in missiles mode and then immediately switched to gun. In other circumstances, the indicator seems to get bugged. Further locking/unlocking and flipping the switches was yielding different results, at one point my gyro even broke :D (a bug, or a feature? That's interesting!). That requires further testing though and a separate thread, so I'll leave it here to avoid going even more off-topic.

Yes locking in missile mode then switching to guns is how it's done. Technically guns is your last resort and because it's an interceptor it's not really mean to track radar locked targets in a dogfight. It's meant for bombers with rear gunners so they can use that standoff range but use the gun accurately. That's why if you're using locked beam or trying with the gyro it may not be as accurate. It's really the gunsight making an estimation rather than a calculated guess.

Know and use all the capabilities in your airplane. If you don't, sooner or later, some guy who does use them all will kick your ass.

The way you say "still fly the mig21" is there a reason to stop I wasn't told about?

 

Nah. It's subjective. For me, it was the lack of (personally, again) appropriate and interesting content. From experience, I can say that those kind of campaigns interest me a lot :)

Anyway, Sabre has indeed confirmed that it's planned.

Still, I renew my invitation to those with first-hand knowledge to get involved with his team :yes:
