Thanks for the book! :)

 

P. 201, Ground power.

In real life, ground power would already be connected and applied when the pilot enters the aircraft. It will also disconnect and actually fall off the aircraft connector automatically after engine start is complete.

I don't know if this is possible to simulate in DCS..?

 

That's cool. I drive on Ambulances on a voluntary basis and ours do that as well as soon as you start the engine.

Thanks for the manual!

 

 

Page 17. "The aircraft is powered by a high-bypass engine, the RM8A"

 

I believe it's actually low-bypass?

Later in the manual it goes on to say it is relatively high-bypass for a fighter engine.

High and low bypass are quite relative terms; the JT8D which the RM8 is based upon is a low bypass airliner engine (compared to the 3-5-10:1 ratios of other airliner engines), but a bypass ratio of 0,96:1 is very high compared to the 0,3-0,6:1 ratios of some modern fighter engines (F404, EJ200, AL31).

Thx Cobra!

This is great!

 

By the way Cobra/Jedi/swither/whoever, how are you going to handle inputting coordinates into the waypoint system in Nevada? I think on the real aircraft you can input the coordinates in any order (lat/long or long/lat) because the computer just cheerfully assumes you're somewhere in northern Europe east of Greenwhich, but this is not possible according to your manual and in fact you have to input them backwards. Thing is though, in Nevada the longitude is somewhere around 115° west of Greenwhich, but the data panel only has two digits for degrees. Are you just going to tell people to input longitude minus a hundred, or are you going to chop off one digit of precision?

Now that's a thoughtful and interesting question if I ever saw one.

Thanks a lot Leatherneck, much appreciated!

This is going to take some time to learn though :D

Good question since the AJS37 was never ment to fly far outside Sweden. I hope the solution won't delay the release...

How (s)low can you go

Maybe the answer is... it just won't work, like the real thing.

 

Regards!

Thanks! A lot to read, lot of stuff to learn. :thumbup:

 

Would it be possible to create links to the pages from the Table of contents?

oh, the function check of the Master Mode Selector is not implemented.(yet) It's sometimes sad to see that function tests like this are left out in a super comprehensive in depth military jet simulation. It's part of the aircraft systems, isn't it?

 

Will we possibly see it implemented in the future? And what does it even do exactly?

 

Edit: or is it for maintenance only?
