Wow, this video is absolutely brilliant! Mouthwatering! Please keep posting these teasers.

Oh, they sure know how to. The have the perfect timing and content, release a new one just when you are starting to lose hope. And oh does it get you hyped!

 

It also (at least for me) has a positive effect on motivation. For example when the AJS-37 was releasing I got happy times waking up on Mondays! Knowing we were 1 week closer to getting the Viggen.

 

It almost feels like they have a special hype engineer on their team!

 

And when it does release we get a truly groundbreaking and awesome new toy to play with! You guys are so great at doing what you do! :D

will we have landcarrier on nttr?

 

It would be a nice map option, to turn on arresting cables at any airfield for practice. But I guess this is the beauty of having carriers in DCSW to use them for practice.

Cables at airfields are only used in emergencies never for carrier landing practice. Outside of a few facilities strictly for testing at Pax River. But at Lemoore they had the ladder lines and "cables" painted for FCLP. But that's the closest you'll get to carrier practice on land.

Yes, what we really want is a mobile FLOLS so that we can practice FCLP. Plus, as you said, catching a wire isn't a challenge on a runway (you can simply roll into them), but touching down in the perfect location for a 3-wire takes a lot of practice - especially in the Tomcat.

Laughlin airport in the NTTR is probably the best FCLP option in NTTR (closest to sea level at 700'). It also is roughly the same distance from Nellis as El Centro is from Miramar.

 

Hopefully this will be an option for learning the pattern and learning to fly the ball. It would make the next step easier. :thumbup:

That's actually pretty legit! That would work out well coupled with VFA-113's PLAT camera mod. It would help out a ton for training before you attempted and actual carrier landing. At least for those that try to train in a more realistic manner for their squadrons.

I thought "landing" meant it was released finally...womp womp :cry:

No, that would be taking off! :D

Why do these (usually NATO) planes all use different AoA units, instead of simply using degrees? I fail to see the logic behind this, can someone in the knowhow please attempt to clarify?

 

It helps not having to deal with negative numbers, because negative is just less than 10 when you're using units.

 

For example, the best acceleration AoA in the F-15 is 8 units, which is slightly negative.

 

I really don't know what else leads to manufacturers using units over degrees.

DCS modules are built up to a spec, not down to a schedule.

 

In order to utilize a system to your advantage, you must know how it works.

I could write a long-winded explanation - but it is probably easier to just read this :thumbup:

The real meat of that pdf can be summed up as...

 

Normalized values of 0.0-1.0 because AoA varies based on aircrafts current configuration.

 

0.0->0.6 = Green

0.6->0.8 = Yellow

0.8->1.0 = Red / Your a brick :)
