tonym Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 In FC3 the SU27 & Migs have no forward view of the airstrip when landing circles aligned in the HUD. The only way I can land them, is to approach too high & then dive for the runway at the last minute. Without 6 DOF, can anyone suggest a better way to land these aircraft, or a way to up the seat height to see over the nose.

Bandit. Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 i also have no idea what you are talking about. may i suggest using the in cockpit ils gauges. they are much more accurate than the hud. the only problem i have notices is with landing su 33 on the carrier. my instruments seem to guide me to crash against the beginning of the carrier.i dont know if its me or the system but the only way i seem to help these is to basically do a visual correction right a the end
Vekkinho Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 the only problem i have notices is with landing su 33 on the carrier. my instruments seem to guide me to crash against the beginning of the carrier. Yup, add some landing flare and you should trap... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Are your flaps extended and/or is your landing speed too low? Either one or both is the likely culprit. You should have no difficulty keeping the runway in view without resorting to a high approach.

Kuky Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 What AoA bug? If done correctly runway is visible... if you can't see it you are not doing it right.

Robin_Hood Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 Yup, add some landing flare and you should trap... Flaring for a carrier trap? I don't think so. The carrier ILS worked fine in previous versions (you could trap with zero (literally) visibility), maybe it is kind of broken now. 2nd French Fighter Squadron

The carrier ILS worked fine in previous versions (you could trap with zero (literally) visibility), maybe it is kind of broken now. Don't think that is correct, a carrier landing is a controlled crash. I've always been able to see the carrier when landing, using carrier ILS. It worked perfectly fine in FC2, did something change in FC3? Have you ever seen navy pilots land their jets on a normal runway? I have and they do it just like landing on a carrier, they just plant that sucker down, no flare, they aren't use to it. i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED

Azrayen Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 This is a correct Su-27 approach. No problem to see the runway. See the pic, try to determine what you're doing wrong for not having +/- the same view. Cheers, Az'
