A few pics from various missions flown at various times! This is a fantastic module and you get a good bang for your buck!

Just noticed this.  The more weight on the plane, the more bulge in the tires.

Until someone does a proper Jaguar, this'll have to do.

I just made some movie  enjoy

Thanks for awesome Work, thx for giving us the plane! We absolutely love Mirage F1. Can't wait for further updates

Very nice video! But opening the chute before landing is not recommended

In RAF maybe. But Polish/Russian/Swedish/Hungarian/Czech Air forces fly a bit sharper. No offence. It's (DOL) standard operating procedure for short landings.
DOL - Drogowy Odcinek Lotniskowy (Road Air Strip roughly speaking).
Watch and learn: Varius Air Forces.

Ok thanks for the feedback of this standard procedure in other countries. In France it's not in the landing procedure as far as I know.

Yup French Air Force never used that ever in the Mirage F1, you need to be VERY gentle with the Landing, 300ft/mn 157knots (if above 11t), 135knots on touchdown with 8.7t

I always admire French pilots! Salute. I remember "Patroulie the France" in Deblin in Poland. I was there. Biggest formation, great show. Beautiful Alpha Jets.
As for Mirage F-1CE. During early preparations to fly module (first 2 months - various manuals reading, gathering informations, learning cockpit layout) I noticed, that drag chute deploy speed (210kt) is bigger than landing speed (~150-170kt), also there is some well made, double wheel main gear, soooo.... My first thought was how about trying to land it just as I did my MiG-21bis? It works and it's way easier to perform here, than on "21", where landing speed is 360kmh, td 330kmh, and chute deploy 320kmh.

As for landing - it looks rough, but precisely performed is quite soft and provides some advantages by landing on unprepared RWY:
-precise flare performed at bit higher speed (and on opened throttle) allows to go around even in very last moment. 
-provides bigger safety margin during DOL landings. (shorter decc., go around available until very last moment)
-after td plane immediately "glues" to the ground, unlike during normal landing.
-no risk of "baloon" or "bounce landing"
... looks cool, and cpt. Pit "Maverick" Mitchell can't do that  

disadvantages:
-requires more practice, and experienced pilot
-however gives bigger error margin, it also means, that error will be more destructive.
-surely not for every pilot and not for every plane
-not recommended by cross wind. Requires good weather conditions

I mean sure you can do those stuff, that's what is beautiful with DCS, I was just giving what the paper said, enjoy man and I'm glad you can mimic MiG-21 with that.

Thank you guys for the pics, looking great!

When I saw how good the development team was, I bought the module immediately and loved it.

Yes, in fact, it's a great module and a great team behind it.
