GTFreeFlyer Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Just a quick question here about some lingo. In route to the target and upon checking in with Hunter, he mentions he is “Lima Charlie”. What is this? This was a nice easy mission, except the first time around I went heads down in the cockpit with autopilot on and a steep bank angle, then I noticed some movement in my peripheral vision a minute later, quickly looked up just as I collided head-on with my wingman. Not good. That was wild in VR.

Yurgon Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 "Lima Charlie" means "Loud and Clear", so radio comms are working fine. Another common way to say it would be "5 by 5". As for the wigman, I always send them to trail formation when I expect heavy maneuvering; that way it's easier for them to stay in formation and they're less likely to crash into me. ;)
