Testing/QC?

[Dunkdd]

This is probably something that happens a lot, but I was a 64 pilot for about 9 years and was kinda curious to know if there was anyone I could reach out to? Basically if they had practical questions? I know there is probably enough public info around (including -10 being available online, etc.) that it shouldn't be difficult to get the skin looking correct. I am more curious about if they need any help verifying proper sound tones, voice tones (betty), what happens in the HDU when various hold modes are activated/released? I just know those aren't things that you can really look up very easily and for someone who spent time flying the aircraft it makes a huge difference in realism to hear the right "altitude low" from the right calm female voice as opposed to some random "pull up" or "low altitude" in some British dudes voice... I tried for a while to find the "Beedle-beedle" noise and the "Betty" voices prior to this with no luck. I know you have a lot of good rules about posting links and sourcing material so I won't say anything more besides if there are any practical questions I would love to add my info to a resource list if there is such a thing. Sorry if this is redundant, just trying to help if help is cared for. Thanks.

Probably should contact BigNewy or Nineline by PM.

They were looking for Apache SME's some weeks ago in a now deleted post. I guess they have sufficient resources now but you can always contact Wags to still offer your assistance.

Dunkdd,

There are a bunch of Pilots and crew chiefs doing the OH-58D. Most are also AH-64 pilots.
Unsure if they are involved in ED's AH-64? perhaps, you might even know some of them.

You might like to get involved with them if interested. They also do the low level hell podcast.
