Day 1.

[DUSTY]

I'm sitting here with a very sore butt because I have been glued to my pit all day flying the Tomcat.

 

I just wanted to say thank you to the team at Heatblur. What you have done for the community with the F-14 is nothing short of amazing.

 

Jester is a work of art. Sure there are some quirks and kinks to be worked out but what an absolutely awesome way of tackling the 2 seat aircraft concept in DCS. My wingman started wetting himself when jester told him to 'use the force' after he struggled for a while to plug into the -135.

 

 

 

I'm lucky enough to have friend who is acting as a dedicated RIO and this whole evening we have been in stitches as we have learned to fight and fly the tomcat as we work together.

 

I nearly fell over when my RIO started blasting the Meteor soundtrack in the jet. I'd seen the references to a walkman but I didn't realise that it was actually implemented!

 

My last flight entailed two very satisfying kills against Mig23s over the desert - there's just something about the 'clunk-clunk' of the missiles coming off the jet.

 

As I was flowing out of bad guy land down on the deck I over-g'd the jet avoiding a dune that came out of nowhere. Next thing I know I'm climbing into the sunset with an AHRS caption and all my heading tapes spinning. A big dumb grin spread across my face, basked in the warm red glow of the F-14 cockpit flood light. Bless this thing.

 

 

Thanks again to the whole team at Heatblur for providing us with something that will give me and my squadron mates hours upon hours of entertainment and joy. I am very keen to see this module mature along with the wider DCS platform.

 

Cheers!

This module is a real time eater isnt it? I`m also glued to my seat since yesterday. Great job HB!
