Bowie Posted Sunday at 03:18 AM Posted Sunday at 03:18 AM Indicated Airspeed Option: The program already tracks this, as it appears as "IAS: n kn" in the external view data window. It's what pilots operate by. Not a big problem for level flight, an an empirical program of Altitudes/IAS's has produced data of ground speeds at altitude for waypoints. The problem is climb. Climbing from 2,000 ft. up to 25K, at max continuous power and 170 mph (148 kts) indicated, has a tremendous ground speed variable. The AI already climb away in this configuration and keeping formation is impossible. If the AI were limited to max continuous power and 170 mph (148 kts) indicated, that would also solve the problem of a route climb. The other issue is an Alternate Waypoint Trigger, and the ability to provide an alternate route. A or B. Turns Four(4) missions into Eight, plus the unpredictability. Multiple Alternate Waypoint Triggers? 1,2,3,... One mission, infinite variably engagements. Bowie
