I am making an overhead break practice mission and want to spawn in a jet with TACAN set to 67x and course line to 070.

Is there any way to do this in the mission editor?

For this you must simulate cockpit interactions click by click using the "X: Cockpit Perform Clickable Action" trigger.

E.g.:

Trigger-1: Press "TCN",
Trigger-2: Press "6",
Trigger-3: Press "7"...
...and so on and so forth.

Open Bankler's CASE 1 Recovery Trainer and see how he organized these triggers, then try to replicate some of them in your mission.

This post should help with understanding the logic behind the Cockpit Device, Command and Value attributes, and where to find their values.

It is not particularly difficult, just time-consuming and may require a bit of trial and error.

And this is single-player only, and the "X: Command..." are module-specific, i.e. the mission may not run with a different module. VERY time-consuming, frustrating and limited. But it is possible. just like @Minsky kindly pointed out.
