digitaljjd Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Just in case anyone missed the 5-day 1.0.0.8 chance of release forecast for today, it was 20 percent chance today then clearing in the evening with a 50/50 percent chance for whining to yourself over the weekend, followed by a 20% chance on Monday and Tuesday with a 100% chance of several rereadings of the change log followed by the uncontrollable urge to view the ED twitter page over and over again.

Frostiken Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) And how often does that happen? If pilots were that good they wouldn't land code 2 or 3 so often.... :D Depends on the system really. I can't speak for A-10s but on the F-15, the two systems that fail the most often is the RWR and ICMS. ICMS is a fickle beast and out of all the times they write it up, probably 30% of the time we're able to just reset the system and it'll work another day. ICMS has a maintenance log built in that keeps a record of every BIT failure and when it happened until the log is full (which can take months), or if you replace the Band 3 CO or reload the OFP. The funny thing about this log is we can see if the pilot tried to reset it or not, and they never do. Many times you'll see something like this: 0000 (good BIT pass from sortie last week) 0000 (good BIT pass from sortie three days ago) 0000 (good BIT pass from yesterday) 1342 (bad - pilot will write it up. Never tried to reset) 0000 (we run it up after the sortie... temporary failure, return to service) We have a few maintenance tricks up our sleeves as well - one of them is the non-volatile RAM reset which will flush the ADCP's brains out. Pilots hate doing it because they have to reload their data but it can clear out a lot of failures with the display processor and 'central computer'. Oh, and as an A-10 crew chief, some may not want to learn how systems work but I'm not one of them....Fair enough then :) But you have to admit crew chiefs are to maintenance what pilots are to Hollywood... pilots actually think crew chiefs (APG) are the ones who fix everything even going so far as to call me 'chief' when I'm on comm, people here think crew chiefs are the ones who are sorting out their MFCD problem and fixing their CDU... as far as the F-15E goes crew chief jobs are really just limited to servicing, cleaning the jet, changing actuators and a few other 'dirty' things like AMADs and JFSs, and managing forms. We don't even get our name on a jet and we have to fix the AAI, AFSC, AIUs, AOAs, CMDs, DLPs, EGI, EWS, EWWS, FCC, FDL, HUD, ICS, ICMS, ILS.... :D Edited May 13, 2011 by Frostiken [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Frostiken Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) :doh: Like you guys are busy the whole time you are at work :D. Do you guys have extra duties? Plus you guys get rides everytime you go TDY. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_them_eat_cake Try this - go to your local AMU (preferrably for a fighter aircraft), find the spec or APG office, and ask to spend an entire shift with someone. PS: Dress well because you will not be going back inside to 'take a break' for at least ten hours, and eat hearty because you will not be given your usual 1.5 hour break to wander down to Burger King and shove yet another quad stacker down your quivering gullet. PPS: No, we don't get incentive rides when we go TDY, first of all because ops ****ing hates maintenance, and secondly the rare times we do give incentive rides, we're giving them to some A1C piece of shit who fought terror and saved the lives of Army troops by ****ing up my god damn travel voucher and not giving me my pay for six weeks.

Unacceptable... Why won't it run on my Ti-80 I shouldn't have to turn down the details... I demand my money back! ;-) But back on topic... This is a seriously good patch, I am very happy that ED are going to such lengths and providing the regular updates. So many developers these days are supply and go. Bravo! Now if you can just include a feature in the next patch that stops me making a "bbrrrrraaaaappp" noise with my mouth every time I squeeze the second stage on my TM:WH please. It will stop my gf looking at me like I'm a day release from the Royal Ed Hospital. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Insanatrix Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 So many people liar in here. Now someone is gonna say they had a bird strike while driving their car. Odd you should say that one of my friends was driving his Rx-7 down a country road and ended up with a bird in his radiator.... He has a video of it but can't find it as it was years ago.
BrumTx Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Slightly off topic of BIRD STRIKES but does having 3 goats run out into the middle of a freeway and getting run over by a Fire Truck count ?, This happened to an Lt that was on a 911 call, not me I hasten to add. Remember the 346 Fire Fighters, Medics & Police who died on 9-11....... Selective memory is a wonderful thing, especially when certain posts simply disappear into the ether never to be seen again, unless I have a copy of the original post copied and pasted into word documents and saved .... just in case :) Am I an abusive idiot ? Due to physical incapacity my Wife types my post's for me
harleyblue Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Yep, we've pretty much given up on trying air refueling, but most of the issues seem to be for clients only. Not just refueling, but JTAC, comms, etc, all seem to work in some sort or another for the server, but since we have a dedicated server, that doesn't do us a whole lot of good. So we stick to sorties limited to three hours or less. TOLD mission planner is your friend :thumbup: Thank you for your response. We now don't have a server a don't use the refuel for the tanker problem. But the ED what say? not solution? Don't now this great problem? Please we want now if the problem ED can fix. Thank's [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

slug88 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Is Blackshark compatible with FC2? If so, is it possible that A10C will integrate with FC2 & BS or just BS? Blackshark is currently compatible with FC2, but I'm guessing it won't be after the A-10C compatibility patch. An A-10C compatibility patch for FC2 is a possibility in the future: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=67747 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
