=Mac= Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 What a wonderful topic to read about a silly little game like this. And, before you yell at me, I'M JOKING! I love DCS and this thread actually IS wonderful. Like Steve Gee said, "Thank you, good sirs!" The video shows rolling out AT the 3/4 mile. Crap, I need to fly LOTS more circuits! 1 The Hornet is best at killing things on the ground. Now, if we could just get a GAU-8 in the nose next to the AN/APG-65, a titanium tub around the pilot, and a couple of J-58 engines in the tail...

As long as I'm on speed and on the numbers at 180, 90 and rolling in the groove. Also, @ OP: I don't know at what stage of your training you are but I would suggest getting used to a moving boat with wind over deck, right from the start. (if you're not doing it already) Things look different vs. stationary or slow moving carrier. Yeah, I can’t stand the training mission for that reason - stationary carrier makes no sense. I was reasonably confident in my Case I and III recoveries, but a two month hiatus to move into a house & work through a 2020-induced existential crisis will leave those skills badly bruised haha. All I can say to anyone else reading this is practice practice practice. Way back when I first discovered DCS I made it a point to end every session - regardless of module - with a few F/A-18 circuits around the boat followed by a hook down recovery. As this thread has made perfectly clear there is a lot of geometry going on, and thoughtful repetition through every stage will be the glue that slowly binds it all together.
