Zeus67 Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share Posted November 7, 2017 One suggestion (plea) though, PLEASE create the document with a dynamic Table of Contents that will link to the actual paragraph within the body of the document. I would, if I knew how. The pocket guide is made on word with dynamic linking and then "printed" into a PDF file, but the links do not carry over. :cry: "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." "The three most dangerous things in the world are a programmer with a soldering iron, a hardware type with a program patch and a user with an idea."

The Integrator Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I would, if I knew how. The pocket guide is made on word with dynamic linking and then "printed" into a PDF file, but the links do not carry over. :cry: I am surprised you use Word. Have you heard of the typesetting software LaTeX? It's the standard software that's used to prepare journal articles for publication etc. It is free and it's very easy to create beautifully formatted documents, for example if you have lots of figures you want to place among the text (as well as linked tables of contents, you can even refer to a figure or something in the text and have it so that when you click on that reference it takes you to the relevant figure).

mjmorrow Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) This is a very useful guide. Thanks for providing us with an early draft of the guide, so we can learn about the AV-8B before that wonderful ride is released for early access! :) Edited November 14, 2017 by mjmorrow [sIGPIC]http://i688.photobucket.com/albums/vv250/mjmorrow76/SPAD%20of%20a%20new%20generation_zpshcbftpce.png[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP233, at night, 600 kts+, frame rate in single figures:thumbup: Anyway, back on topic. Thanks for the great pocket guide. I'm really looking forward to flying this jet through the Nevada valleys, even with nothing but drop tanks I can see it is going to be immense fun. Interesting to see that only 2 different kinds of A2G weapon can be carried, presumably limitations of the weapon-control computer? Reminds me of the Su-25 (in real life, no such limitation in the DCS Su25) Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sarcasm, I was referring to the performance of my Amiga! As soon as the action started, my frame rate crashed:( I agree, a modern Tornado sim would be great. Anyway, back to the AV8B.

Zeus67 Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 Why is it that I never learn not to say "The last update"? The pocked guide has been updated for typos and included a section about how to swap the sun visor for the NVG and vice versa in flight. Yes, it can be done. I was told so by a current USMC pilot. It is lengthy prone to errors and be ready for being the target of your wingman's jokes (and your squadron) if you drop any piece inside the cockpit forcing you to do some acrobatic maneuvers to get it back.
