ED Team Wags Posted November 3, 2008 ED Team Share Posted November 3, 2008 (edited) Dear all, As many of you are already aware, Hawg11 has been working on a new terrain area that we hope to use for "DCS: A-10C Warthog". This Nellis AFB and range would be used for the training missions and training Red Flag missions. Hawg11 is now a member of the SimMod team (congrats Dave!) and the guys are now at the stage of creating and populating the map with objects. One area where good data is lacking is images of the various buildings of Nellis AFB at ground level - satellite images are not needed. Any support you can provide to them would be appreciated. Thanks, Matt Edited November 3, 2008 by Wags 1 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/wagmatt Twitch: wagmatt System: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3729544#post3729544 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeroscout Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 (edited) Nellis? Red Flag? I would hope this means an F-15C is coming soon. Red Flag, huh? How 'bout Red Flag the Movie! :music_whistling: http://www.hulu.com/watch/24197/fighter-pilot-operation-red-flag That could give you some ideas for missions as well I guess. :thumbup: But enough of my sarcasm. Here's a pic from google earth. I think it's quite clear where the main hangars and buildings are. Some other stuff. (I'll update this if and when i find more stuff) http://www.nellis.af.mil/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nellis_Air_Force_Base (Nice real airport charts, very nice if trying to replicate exactly) http://dlr.thexhunters.com/richard/nellisredflag.jpg EDIT: I think it's worth noting that that the airfield is not perfectly flat. (see airport diagram) The airfield elevation changes +- 20 feet or so.

mvsgas Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Kusch, thanks for that web site, lots of cool photos. :thumbup: To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

HitchHikingFlatlander Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I think in the last pic there is an F-22 parked in front of the tanker a/c, could be wrong though! Congrats!

h00t74 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Borchi, I will see what I can come up w/ tommorrow for you. A few not so known facts on Nellis. All Aircraft w/ Live ordnance take off to the NE and land fropm that direction. They do not Take-off/land over SW side of AF. Also, They load aircraft w// ordance on the SOuth side of the Af near the tower, Not where all the hangers are :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
