Thanks for sharing, I will try it out next week, as my new VirPil pedals are scheduled to arrive on the 21st May I suggest that you upload it onto the User's Files section, as it would be easier to find by new players: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/filter/type-is-single/unit-is-mi-8mtv2/sort-is-date_desc/apply/ On the file description you can place a link to this thread, so that users can provide feedback about the mission For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Snappy Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Hey Lace, just wanted to say thanks for the mission ! I just had my first go at it and enjoyed it , even though I wasn't successful haha. Things were going a bit too well for my liking and everything seemed quiet, which added to the overall feeling I might be overlooking sth. First indicator of this was an RPG hitting my helicopter I'm going to try again. Good idea for a Mi-8 mission, it was fun hovering over and scouting ahead of the convoy. Thank you!

Regards, Snappy Glad you enjoyed it. At least you 'found' some of the bad guys! Keep well ahead of the convoy and keep your speed up. Floating along at 20kts is asking for trouble. I find a low figure-8 clearing both sides of the road a mile or so ahead of the convoy is a good tactic. Laptop Pilot.
