DIFFY Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 as anyone figured how to bail out at sea and not die? or even just bail out of the aircraft? Many Thanks
Art-J Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 You mean when still in the air, or after ditching the aircraft? You'll always die when bailing out over water. Swimming, dinghys and whatnot are generally just not modelled in DCS for the time being. As for the bailout in the air procedure, jettison the side hatch by pulling the emergency jettison handle and press the bailout command for the first crew member, then switch to the second position and do the same. 1 i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

Nealius Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 I don't think the canopy jettison has been implemented yet.

Nope it hasn't From what I've read the canopy jettison was used to escape after a forced landing where the door might be obstructed. My guess is that using it to bail out might lead to a nasty tail-strike by the crew - although whether that is preferable to the prop-strike option I guess is up for debate
