Free Mirage F1 Campaign : Ad Pacem 1985

Just a question about the INS, none of the points of nav are correct, they give me strange bearing and distance. Maybe i do something wrong.

PS: et merci pour la dedicasse sur la première mission

C'était mon petit Eastern Egg perso. Seule une petite poignée d'initiés vont comprendre et c'est encore plus fun...

En tout cas, heureux que ça te plaise.

Probably, but I don't know what. I guess the alignment is not done correctly...

Yes in fact, every mission need to have a full INS alignement. 

I flew the mission 9 Decapitation 3 times, but could never end with succes, never get clearance to land. Maybe i did something wrong.

I have the same issue. I have only tried the second mission though.

Do you have the main setting for the INS to start pre-located? I've not had any problems, but after I've tried the alignment process once or twice so I'm aware of what's required, I always go for the pre-aligned option on all my planes. I do the same with autostart. I'll go through it so I know what the process is, then I autostart on most planes. For immersion junkies, just imagine I told my crew chief to do the alignment before I arrived  

It bit me in the arse on an M-2000 campaign, where one of the tasks was to take a fix. I turned it back off for that one after I realised I'd actually turned drift off as well and this was breaking the mission logic!

 

I am really enjoying all the free F-1 campaigns, but especially this one and it's sibling - they are wonderfully thought through and detailed work. Such a fun plane, it's a single pilot (ignoring the second seat in the BE for now) but doesn't have FBW. It flies wonderfully, and is mostly docile, compared to the Mig-21bis, for example. But it still requires me to 'fly' it, and not push past the limits.

Sometimes the ins alignement goes wrong but is ok after restart the alignement.

But I can't understand what do I wrong in the mission 9. Take off, altitude and speed ok while waiting n°2 to rejoin, fly out the CTR and climb to angel 18 at M0.7, anchor at tango, waiting n°2 to drop his bomb on the false coordinates, enter the coordinates on the INS, go to angel 12, passing IP at M0.8, turn to target and drop the bomb without groing through the frontier with Syria. Turn back to Tango to saddle with n°2 then return to point 3 to avoid flying over Syria. Then I descend to 8000 to enter NW, fly the pattern around the airfield, where n°2 break to go to land, I fly around 10Nm away then turn to the airfield to align at 1500ft /10Nm to prepare to land. I never get the clearance to land. If i land a go to ZT, I don't have the mission completed message. 

When entering the Israeli airspace (green 6), they told me to avoid the airfield by flying over the height of Golan, I was flying over the montains next to the frontier, maybe is there a specific point wher I need to fly. Is it possible that once saddled with my wingman I must fly direct to the last waypoint? Over Syrian airspace? And is there an altitude at which I need to fly when returning to the airfield ?

Hope someone can help me.
