Deano87 Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) Hey all. This evening I was playing around with slinging some Mk-84s at various structures using a lofting attack. Old school style. So old school in fact that I wasn’t even flying with a TGP. During one of the flights I inadvertently slewed the SPI away from the steerpoint. Now normaly if I had done this I’d just double tap TMS aft to cursor zero the SPI back to the steerpoint. But without the TGP on the jet I couldn’t figure out how to get this to work. I tried using the AG radar but that wouldn’t work. And I believe I tried HUD as SOI as well and that didn’t work. I also tried cycling through steer points. So overall I’m stumped as to how you’d be able to get the SPI back onto the steer point If you inadvertently slew away from it. Anybody got any ideas?

DThe AG radar in theory should work, maybe its bugged.
Solution Frederf Posted January 3, 2022 Solution Posted January 3, 2022 The CZ function is present on AG TGP and AG FCR pages (even when off, but that's currently missing). If you can find the CZ button and click it I've never had it not do what it's supposed to. The way you diagnose CZ is by doing small slews and pressing CZ. If it keeps putting the FCR cursors back in the same spot then there's nothing wrong with CZ. Either your spot's wrong or your INS is. If each CZ press acts like nothing happened and the slews pile on top of each other that's a problem with CZ. 1
Deano87 Posted January 3, 2022 Author Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) Ah ok I’ve tested with the AG FCR and the CZ button and it does work. When in AG master mode should TMS down have a CZ function when either the AG FCR or HUD are SOI?

Frederf Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 The double tap TMS aft CZ shortcut was added in a later OFP. The only hands-on CZ we get is the TGP SOI TMS aft (enough times). 1
Deano87 Posted January 3, 2022 Author Posted January 3, 2022 Fair enough. Thanks for the info.
