C3PO Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I have found Chuck's aircraft manuals invaluable on Mudspike in finding my way around the AV8B and the Hornet - superb work. Clear, brilliantly laid out and a huge amount of work goes into each. Much appreciated. 20 Now: Water-cooled Ryzen 5800X + 32GB DDR 4 3200 RAM + EVGA 3090 FTW3 Ultra 24 GB + Reverb G2 + Add-on PCI-e 3.1 card + 2x1TB Corsair M.2 4900/4200 + TM HOTAS Warthog + TM TPR Pendular Rudder 'Engaged Defensive' YouTube Channel Modules: F/A-18C / AV-8B / F-16 / F-15E / F-4E (when it lands) / Persian Gulf / Syria / Nevada / Sinai / South Atlantic Backup: Water-cooled i7 6700K @ 4.5GHz + 32GB DDR4 3200MHz + GTX 1080 8GB + 1TB M.2 1k drive & 250GB SSD drive 500MBps 4K 40" monitor + TrackIR 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not 100% certain but I believe it was a car accident So sad. I played Lock-On many years ago, but was unaware of the existence of this Enhanced Manual ... looking for more information, I found it on PDF version, this is the link: http://docshare02.docshare.tips/files/5077/50776352.pdf It's Introduction by Carl C. Norman is a wonderful reading, still valid today and giving insight on the events of DCS pre-history ... really worth a reading.

Savvy Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Hey Chuck, Would it be easy to place a paypal donate button on each of the Mudspike pages? I can never be bothered with Patreon each month but I'd happily donate each time I download a manual. They really are excellent, thanks for all the hard work! Another thing you could do is offer custom kneeboard images for things like cold starts and weapons depolyment. I've made a few of my own from screenshots of your guides.

joker68 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I've started to read Chuck's manuals. This content is simply awesome. A wealth of information, and all in such a good presentation too. Hats off. You got skills, sir. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AG-51_Razor Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 If not already one, Chuck would make an awesome instructor. It's a very rare talent to be able to impart information - especially content that at times can be extremely dry and sleep inducing - in such a manner as to be very interesting, even entertaining sometimes. Thank you Chuck! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
