Navigation Set-Up

[roadrabbit]

:)

 

Really loving flying the A10-C - but still a complete beginner regarding this simulation.

 

Question: the checklists supplied for the ED Warthog are not clear. Flight plan loading is first mentioned in Pre-Flight Checks i.e. after engine start. I would assume this is just a check that the flight plan has been loaded up, and is not a cue to begin loading? Also when are the weapons set up?

 

My thinking would be to get the APU running and supplying electrical power, and then enter all the required navigation data and all the required weapons data, prior to engine start.

 

Another question: waypoint elevation is new to me - where do I obtain that information? Does this refer only to the waypoints stored in the waypoint library? If I wanted to ferry an A10-C outside the DCWorld area (say) would the waypoint elevation be necessary? I used to load many waypoint flight plans in a different life :smilewink: and never used waypoint elevation.

 

RW answers will help me understand the simulation better, so thanks to any who reply.
