I had this happen when I was learning the a10, and setting up my profile for the controls, just after take off, I meant to press gear up, instead opened the canopy lol needless to say I changed my controls, and left open canopy out of the list ;)

I smell a feature request here for a catastrophic failure of the gun in DCS :)

[Gierasimov]

I wish we could see the recording of this that was taken by another pilot who was on the ground at Alpena.

 

+1 to the feature request :) updated damage model is always good thing :)

This type of failure, to this extreme, is very rare.

Oh, yes of course. Doesn't mean it couldn't be a failure option in DCS.

Although admittedly, it would probably find more use in a mission as a triggered event.

Can someone file a FOIA request to get all the radio chat please. Thanks

 

I most definitely can't, I'm not US citizen.
