Chocks Removal While at Random places

[H60MTI]

So one of the great things about the Harrier is that it can take off from anywhere really. I setup a small FARP/dirt strip on the WW2 Marinas map just to have some fun. Problem is, there's no ground crew to remove the chocks for me now. Doesn't matter if engine is off or not. Would I need to add in a random ground crew to resolve this?

Yes. Add an "Invisible FARP" to provide "ground services" with perhaps appropriate (NATO) ground vehicles for rearming, fuel, radio com's, etc.

More details in this video and similar

Add video link describing invisible FARPs and support vehicles

At the moment I do have an invisible FARP there with one ground dude. I'll ty some support vehicles next time I get a chance to play and see what happens.

I needed to add an "LUV HMMWV Jeep" to the "Invisible FARP" to get staff/radio com's to add/remove chocks from the Harrier.

This post goes into more detail Re: the JF-17 but the Harrier is similar

Tested using a cold start AV-8B and the WW2 Marianas map (mission date set to 2012), DCS 2.9.21.16552
