macedk Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Hi all 3 human pilots. Bungle - Heater - Mace Tons of steel, blue and red:) Start at 05:30 day 3. mission: retake airfield from red incursion. threats: low level flight is off limits....plenty of missiles and bullets at ground. Takeoff: senaki airport, full load 99% weight. 3 ship "standard" close v2. Target: close stp 2 20miles, stp 1 ip point, to gain alt. Ip point start scan of airbase at stp 2. Action: sort first run..nice spacing and target separation. 2nd run: more targets gets killed "tunguska, strela, bmp's etc.... 3rd run: new intel...convoy heading in to base...find and destroy convoy: acquired and killed mistakes: pilot thought airbase was clear of sam threats...nasty hit...he was observer for the rest of the group, for the rest of the mission. rest of the mission: Since we are still learning, we spend some time on "talk-on" from wounded aircraft. We got 90 % of targets and base is back on blue hands. funny note: Mace was empty at the end except two aim-9's...he scored a infantry kill. landing: close unguided trail landing, slight cross wind. cool note: we saw the "ramp fix" for the first time...damn cool formula 1 go home fix time. "jacked up, panels and ladder open/down..to close all and down in 5 secs flat! ;) Who are we: Now 338th (fun) sqn but with a serious bite and intentions. Background: loads of Falcon and Il2 time. Abit of Blackshark and various other flightsims. we also hold alot of online gaming...including Arma seires, Coh, alot of racing online. Mission: have fun online and let the dev's and the people that haven't dared into online gaming know, that is can be done at a low key but serious base(wife;kids and work letting). Personal note: I got into online flying with Falcon4.0 with a serious bunch back in 1999 or 00...i got hooked on online play after leaving the fear of "i'm not good enough" behind(no I'm by far an ace,,,,still ;)) Made some awesome friends in the process as well :) Future: To be honest we are a "online have fun group". Present a good online product and we are there...time willing. If we keep our pace and dedication then we might expand but its a have fun first type of thing right now. Well that's a start.....more to come... Have fun out there fellow online people from every age and skill :) P E A C E OS: Win10 home 64bit*MB: Asus Strix Z270F/ CPU: Intel I7 7700k /Ram:32gb_ddr4 GFX: Nvidia Asus 1080 8Gb Mon: Asus vg2448qe 24" Disk: SSD Stick: TM Warthog #1400/Saitek pro pedals/TIR5/TM MFDs [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
