Chris CDN Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) Just a wee fire. No big deal. I probably could have saved the tires, but I had to be doing mach three in order to keep the machine stable. Edited January 17, 2011 by Chris CDN NSDQ

rexehuk Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 (edited) She got me back in one peice :) (Adjusted some levels in lightroom, fire looks awesome) Both engines damaged, left engine is fubar and left wing is half gone. P.s. It was an enemy airstrip with 5 Shilkas :D Edited January 18, 2011 by rexehuk
JonK Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Surprised you still have stores onboard. Those would have been the first thing I would drop.
dane48 Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Surprised you still have stores onboard. Those would have been the first thing I would drop. I believe in the most current beta release, a jettison of stores results in a CRASH. "To most people, the sky is the limit. To those who love aviation, the sky is home."-----anonymous
Aylward Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I believe in the most current beta release, a jettison of stores results in a CRASH. Still works fine for me as recently as yesterday... :pilotfly: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] please... please... please... let the next DCS module be an F-18 fighter aircraft :worthy:
skypirate Posted January 19, 2011 Author Posted January 19, 2011 Yes, the stores jettison is fine (more ot less). The only crash I got was when trying to jetitson a center fuel tank... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Regards!
MadTommy Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 (edited) I landed this between the runway & taxiway... just couldn't keep in on line with the runway during final approach. I flew 15 minutes back from the threat zone with one and a half wings... the right was shot off the left broke off on landing.. but i walked away. I only ejected after coming to a complete stop. I had no landing gear, so performed a belly landing. So i think this counts. :D Edited January 19, 2011 by MadTommy i5-3570K @ 4.5 Ghz, Asus P8Z77-V, 8 GB DDR3, 1.5GB GTX 480 (EVGA, superclocked), SSD, 2 x 1680x1050, x-fi extreme music.

skypirate Posted January 19, 2011 Author Posted January 19, 2011 Well mate, considering you're out of the runway and you have ejected, puts you in no mans land according to the rules. Yet the rules are there to be changed, so here is my respond to your image :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Regards!

Yet the rules are there to be changed, so here is my respond to your image :thumbup: true ture..I did land within the airport and didn't overshoot the runway...and I didn't need to eject.. but considering the fire off my left wing and hung Mav i thought it was best! But yes.. not exactly within the rules.. but i was bloody close to getting it onto the runway.. last 3 seconds or so and my lack of airspeed made it impossible to stop it veering off. :joystick: Next time! i5-3570K @ 4.5 Ghz, Asus P8Z77-V, 8 GB DDR3, 1.5GB GTX 480 (EVGA, superclocked), SSD, 2 x 1680x1050, x-fi extreme music.

Real men land with a few thousand pounds of explosives, what's the worst that could happen? :music_whistling: Also, didn't want to risk blowing my balance off as the jet was flyable and I had full landing gear.

todd022 Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Assumed I could rotate in time (even though runway WASN'T clear)....you know what they say about assuming....I landing it on all three. count it? hosting images image host free image upload [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

I recon the next stage would be bringing A-10 back without 2 wings, no tail and say 1 engine on fire :D.. But this should happen before the release of Beta 5 as I have the feeling there will be no more free dinners. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Regards!

MAJOR yaw :music_whistling: Blown 1 tire in landing and one 'taxiing'' (was full right rudder to get out of the runway but forgot to put nosewheel steering on....

slimakwielki Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 I don't have screenshot, but made a video from replay track (essence) on Youtube when loosing wing after bad hit. I admit that I didn't make any runway though, but did a really hard bumpy land on a field, no crash, no explosion though, and could safely open canopy thereafter:) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJoC8cskHwM
