oho Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 I have a problem with tanker approach to get to zero change of speed. Can I change the Hud-settings somewhere to see the acceleration or deceleration. In the moment I can only see speed itself on the left side.
Foka Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 No. And you shouldn't try to achieve constant speed. It's nearly impossible because of winds, turbulence, changes in air. Flying in formation (that includes AAR) you work the throttle all the time with minimal movement - front/back. 2

Expand No specific HUD settings and a radar lock with Vc (velocity of closure) indication will not help for small speed differences (and you want to have the radar in stby/off when you refuel, anyway). You can start by using the velocity initially communicated by the tanker but after that, you need to judge the relative velocity (yours against the tanker's) visually as you'd normally do in formation flying.

Go practice with the Su-33, it has what you want among other helping features. It WILL help you to do AAR with the Hornet. Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk
