Prepare mission ... does it work for the Mirage F1 ?

[IvanK]

Trying to set up an airborne spawn in Mirage F1. I want the mission to start with Autopilot engaged in PA and ALT, I also want the Radio set to a specific freq, the TACAN on a specific channel, The ILS tuned to a specific Freq and the Course inbound preset.

I have the basic mission made, I then select Prepare mission CTL+M. I set the parameters up then exit the mission returning to the Mission editor I save the mission.

I then select the mission to fly. on spawn none of the selected parameters are there

AFAIK (and checking the manual), the Prepare Mission option is a relic from a long time ago, and only applies to the A-10C and Ka-50 (your guess if it extends to the 10CII and Ka50III). Main point being that this feature has never been developed into a functional feature across other modules. Why it's still in there is anyone's guess, it simply doesn't help making ME appear to be a well-designed package.
