Larkis Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 Yesterdayi fly a simple mission with my RIO. We start at Batumi, heading to the carrier and land case 1. While in case 1, the Landing-Mode HUD show the velocity vector in the middle of the pitch line. Everything is ok. I came in to fast, got a hard landing and catch a wire 4. So we load bumbs, refuel, roll to cat amd do a little bomb mission. Everything ok, Hyud work as aspectet. Then we headed back to Batumi. When my F14 is on final i switch HyuD to Landing Mode and the velocity Vektor ist far on the right side, beyond the pitchmarker. Like there was a strong wind from the left. My brain stuck into the Hornet-"allways trust the hud" and i try a crosswind landing and messed up the whole approach. So my question is, what happened? Is it possible that i damaged something with the hard landing on the carrier? Something that only affect the velocity vector? If yes can i repair it without completly shutting down the Aircraft and loose Alignment?
danny875 Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 I had a very hard landing on the carrier and my HUD ladder was skewed 45 degrees to the right, no amount of repairing fixed it so I guess there is some damage modelling in there...
