Steel Jaw Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Oh excellent work, brother. Now, stupid question: are these meant to be printed out or as in-sim kneeboards? "You see, IronHand is my thing" My specs: W10 Pro, I5/11600K o/c to 4800 @1.32v, 64 GB 3200 XML RAM, Red Dragon 7800XT/16GB.

MARLAN_ Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 Hey, noticed there is a small error on your lat/lon/grid examples window. It says it is DD*MM.mm' and DD*MM.mmmm' respectively but the examples are DD*MM'SS" and DD*MM'SS.ss" respectively. While looking at it I also noticed it doesn't show the two different modes the Hornet can take, but adding in both modes wouldn't fit the square, so I drew up a really quick mock-up. 1 1 Virtual CVW-8 - The mission of Virtual Carrier Air Wing EIGHT is to provide its members with an organization committed to presenting an authentic representation of U.S. Navy Carrier Air Wing operations in training and combat environments based on the real world experience of its real fighter pilots, air intercept controllers, airbosses, and many others.

MARLAN_ Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) Hey! Sorry for the 2nd post nitpicking! I think your kneeboards are the best and most well researched ones I've seen, which is why me and my airforce buddy went through them because they are so close to being perfect. Your kneeboards are seriously awesome we are both extremely impressed!! You clearly put a TON of work into this and did your research Couple more nitpicks if you're not annoyed yet 1) On the HAIL-R DDI configuration, the R-DDI should be set to FCS - You need to confirm your flap position via this page and can't rely on lights or switch position. Landing Weight/Fuel can be checked via CHKLST temporarily and doesn't need to remain up. 2) Minor error here, just a mix up of words Should be DME = Angels + 15 Edited April 29, 2021 by MARLAN_ 2 Virtual CVW-8 - The mission of Virtual Carrier Air Wing EIGHT is to provide its members with an organization committed to presenting an authentic representation of U.S. Navy Carrier Air Wing operations in training and combat environments based on the real world experience of its real fighter pilots, air intercept controllers, airbosses, and many others.

Pieterras Posted April 30, 2021 Posted April 30, 2021 @MARLAN_ What do you mean by Hail R DDI configuration? DDI configuration is not specifically mentioned in the HAIL-R checks other then I for Instruments.

The following display setups are specifically for the F/A-18C Hornet. These are the display settings taught to pilots in the FRS (initial F/A-18 training squadron) but they are not standard operating procedure. Therefore, use them as guidance to improve SA, but freedom is given to deviate as required. In marshal: (any case) Left DDI: HUD Right DDI: Radar (For SA) MPCD: HSI Just prior to leaving marshal until touchdown: Left DDI: HUD Right DDI: Checklist MPCD: HSI Yes @MARLAN_ made a valid point, however that is not teached in FRS, at least not at the time of the legacy hornet. It’s possible some guys see they are clearly below max trap and then put up the FCS page. Those are both techniques. No wrong or right... It all comes down to personal preference and technique.. 1
