Several missions have youtube movies in their posts======================================================================
Update: Ferry mission profile (030217) –-------------------------------------------------------------------------I tried to do the mission and arrived at Mandumi successfully.
I shared my fuel usage, speed, altitude profile to make this mission success.
There are bunch of ways to do the mission, my profile (the below table) could be one of them. I returned back at Mandumi with the fuel status of ~300 lbs.
The important things are
1. do not use AB for climb, cruise and at any situations.
2. must know the optimal cruse altitude and speed (Mach) which are dependent on current GW and drag ; to get this info, see the real life manual, HAF-F16-Supple page70.
FYI, in BMS, optimal cruise altitude seems to be calculated wrong, in particular when GW and drag are heavier and higher. Instead of the info in CRUS HOM DED, refer the graph in the upper manual. You could see the values in the below table.
3. As the plane is getting to lose weight by consuming its fuel, its GW decrease so the optimal altitude gradually is getting higher.
4. When passing a waypoint, make a smooth line. For this, u must know a lead distance which are function of speed and bank angle.
5. The starting temperature in this mission is ~22degsC. When the mission gradually goes, it is getting increase by 4 PM. So true altitude is higher than barometric altitude you read because of higher temperature. Cruise altitudes which u measured in the upper should be calibrated. If you have E6B, you could get the true altitude from barometric one and temperature. Another way is that when you fly on the sea, the radar altitude is true altitude.
6. To keep a current altitude, use autopilot with steerpoint and attitude hold instead of altitude hold. Altitude hold is based on barometric alt, sometimes the atmosphere change makes the plane fluctuate and it is not fuel efficient.
7. Maximum range descent is throttle IDLE and keep optimal descent speed which is dependent on the current drag: 215(drag: 0)~230(drag:230) KIAS. By controlling pitch angle, try to keep the speed with throttle IDLE status. It explains in HAF-F16-Supple page140. The independent mission about this is here: https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?29722-TE-mission-Korea-Tour&p=427557&viewfull=1#post427557[font][size] Table.

Dear all,
I made TE mission for Korea tour.
During ferry trip on Korea, we can train many things like fuel management, optimal cruise, Mil climb, maximum distance descent etc
We take off at Mandumi via Haeju -> Shineju -> Mt. Baekdu -> East sea -> Dokdo -> Kimhae -> Kwangju -> Yellow sea and return to Mandumi, again.
Total mission distance is ~1400nm, estimated time is ~200 mins including ramp, taxi, landing procedure.
The storage is 2A120B, 2A9X, 6Mk82LG, 2T370, T300, and total GW is ~41k lbs and drag ~230.The limit conditions are:
1. follow 12 waypoints and do not deviate from the way out of 10nm.
2. You can use hot pit refuel just before rolling on the runway in Mandumi.
3. do not drop the weapons except fuel tanks or ur wingcommander dislikes you
4. return Mandumi not too late, beyond 250 minsEnjoy this mission, I hope you arrive at Mandumi safely.

================================================== ====================Dear all,
I prepared another mission which is for training a popup attack.
It means we approach from low level and popup attack against various targets surrounded by you.
Total way points is 16. The armaments are 12 Mk82 bombs, 4 A9M, and ECM.
We starts in air near waypoint 3 which is located in the center and surrounded by targets from waypoints 4 to 15.
The enemy defense system gradually get hard but we can get score higher.The target lists are follows. The default enemy defense is SA-3 which prevents us approaching from high altitude.
We cannot destroy all of targets because of limited fuel and bombs. So to get higher scores start from waypoint 9.
For a novice, you can start from low number way points.
When I tested the mission, it was possible to attack fourth times.FYI, the targets are exactly assigned to their own waypoints. So you don’t need to assign again.
In my experiences, way13 was hard. The target is located in airbase near sea. So there is no hills and mountains for terrain masks.
You can see your score when the mission time passes or u dies.I also uploaded acmi file in which I did popup from way9 to way12 and landed in Mandumi.
Unzip this (popup_HA_LA.zip) and you could see this file via BMS acmi or Tacview.

*Useful links about baseline intercept
1. Related Youtube link and documents ; https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?9296-Baseline-Intercept&highlight=baseline+intercept
2. Tanker baseline intercept ; https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?26380-AAR-time-management&highlight=baseline+intercept
================================================== ====================Dear all,
I made another mission for baseline intercept training.
This is BFM and BVR techniques. There are many references about that, MCH16v5 , CNATRA P-825 Strike Fighter Intercept , another P-825, and etc.We take off from Mandumi AB and travel via W2~W6 and land on Mandumi.
The armament is 2A9L for a self defense.
Our training partners are B52, AWACS, and KC135 which pass exactly on W2, 3, and 4.
For us to meet them, follow TOS (time over steerpoint). You could check the time and activate it on DED CRUS mode to see the speed caret.
The default assigned speed is CAS of 300 on altitude of 20k feet.
Our friends pass with target aspect angle of 170, 160, or 150.
However, these aspect angles could be variable as how you approach toward the waypoint.After three training, we have an important mission on W5 (keep TOS).
Enemy planes are approaching to our AB. We should prevent them to attack.
Our armament, as I mentioned upper, is A9L and gun which are suitable for rear-aspect attack and is best for baseline intercept.
ROE: 1. visual contact and check who they are
2. if they are enemy, prevent him to destroy our AB.
If we succeed, we get 100 scores, otherwise, the enemy get 100 score and the mission failsFYI, I uploaded an acmi file, https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_PAbMP9vVw8YmFsaVZzdHpfVmM
I tried to get baseline with 60 degs bank turn, 350 KCAS, and alt~20k’ which means that the turn diameter is ~22000’
So the lateral distance should be 22000’. For example, the first case, the target aspect angle of 170, you turn to the inverse target heading around the slant range of 22nm.
Lateral_distance (feet)~ slant_range(nm) * aspect_angle(degs) * 100 ; 22000’ ~ 22nm10degs100, where aspect angle is 180-target_aspect_angle(170).
During the parallel approach, u start to turn with bank angle of 60 degs around offset or aspect angle of ~32 degs (32 degs rule).
If you are faster than 350 KCAS or the target is slower than you, delay your turn time beyond 32degs of offset angle.32 degs rule: 32 degrees means that a target and an interceptor have the same speed and it derives an suitable angle to satisfy the same moving distance where the target is moving as line and the interceptor is moving on circle to intercept.
It is not related to a slant range. Turn to a target with bank angle derived from lateral distance and u could intercept the target.
validation: the circle radius: r ; the distance the intercept is moving on the half circle: pir ; lateral distance : 2r
the moving distance of the target: it must be pir ; d vertical length 2r ; another length: pir => offset angle of me /aspect angle of target = atan(2r/pi*r) = atan(pi/2) = 32.48 degsEnjoy this mission,
Thanks,

*ACMI files uploaded: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_PAbMP9vVw8dXdjdnRsRkZjY1E
*CTL considerations:
1. because of high wind situation, u must consider wind correction. it’s better to use ground speed, GS by toggling velocity indicator change.
2. calculate turn diameter: in my case, ACMI, I used GS~250 and bank~30degs which give turn_radius ~1.6nm and turn diameter ~3.2nm
<simple 10=“” rule:=“” turn_radius~(gs=“” 60)**2=“”>When ur speed is fast and bank angle is low, the turn radius is getting large. If weather is overcast (the case of Kimhae CTL TE), u could not see the runway visually during CTL. In the case, u must go around and try again with less turn radius.
3. to make a turning room, diameter, there are a few methods, ‘two 90’, ‘30’ , ‘45’ , ‘one 90 turn’ possible.- ‘two 90 turn’: it’s easiest way. When you see the runway visually around 3~4nm, start 90 degs turn keeping speed and bank left or right. When you arrive 90 deg turn, just directly do 90 deg turn in the opposite way. After the turn, you are align along the runway with the right turning diameter.
- ‘45’: start 45 degs turn at distance of turn_diameter (nm) from the opposite of runway. When you arrive the opposite runway threshold in you shoulder, start to turn
- ‘30’: start 30 degs turn at distance of 1.7*turn_diameter (nm) from the opposite of runway. Others are same to ‘45’ method
- ‘one 90 turn’: cross over runway perpendicular and move as distance of turn_radius and turn 90 degs to make the turn diameter. You need a stopwatch to measure the distance. This is not a suitable method in TE.
- Others except the first need some calculations. In the ACMIs, I used ‘45’ method. I calculated the exact time prior to the flight.
4. During the final turn to the landing runway, u needs to check the location of the runway visually. If you have a head tracking gadget, it’s easy. If not, use ground padlock when u arrives at ~half turn. Focus to keep speed and bank stay.
5. At this time, check PAPI if your altitude is right. Time to put gear down, speed down, keep ~-3 pitch, and etc.
Dear all,
I prepared another mission in KTO. This is a training for circle to land (CTL).
CTL is a visual landing approach keeping eyes on a runway. It happens generally when wind goes from tail and there is no opposite approach because of hills, mountain, and etcThree missions are ready. All missions are on the way of final approach.

Update (011218)
I revised the mission that can be possible to land by removing two fuel tanks, and I changed routes simply.
Takeoff on 23R, do baseturn and land on 05R (longer runway) for preventing gear collapse by the glitch explained in the upper
GW is 33227 and DI is 176.
By the calculation, the best approach speed is 177KCAS and the touch down speed is 168KCAS.
Do aerobraking until u reaches 100KCAS and then do wheel braking.
please download at the bottom.
================================================== ====================================================================== ====================
Update (112117)
Recently I made North Korea airbase drawings for Tacview
ref. https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?32265-All-KTO-airbases-for-Tacview&p=450909&viewfull=1#post450909
You can see Samjiyon AB in Tacview to check your landing is right or not
================================================== ====================================================================== ====================
Update (051217) - one soln
When u arrive on the AB after the tour, 2000 lbs of fuel used. So GW~38000, DI~244.
The best approach speed in the environment is ~175KCAS, and touch down speed is ~165KCAS.
Aerobraking is performed until the speed of 110KCAS and it uses runway of ~4000’.
After the aerobraking, maximum full braking is done until the stop, it takes 2500’ of runway.
Total used runway is ~6500’ , which is close to the AB’s runway length. Thus, when u touchdown, it’d better to use whole margin of threshold to get a room distance.
Another problem is a braking energy. It requires ~14M ft lbf of braking energy which is ‘caution’ area so some braking problems, such as flat tire, braking failure, and etc would happen.
Spend a time of ~30min to check if the problem happen or not.
I hope it would be helpful
================================================== ====================================================================== ====================
Update (040517) - some glitches on Samjiyon AB
There is a glitch in front of 05R runway. When you pass the region, nose wheel collapses with highly chance.
Please see the post: https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?16973-Gear-collapse-during-taxiing
When you approach to 23L, pass the runway, base turn, capture 05R, and land.
If u pass the region with 2-point attitude without nose wheel down, the problem seems not to happen.
Instead of this problem, the hot brakes cause flat tyres, brake function loss and etc. I am not sure the nose wheel collapse is included in the category.
Sorry for confusing you.
A side note: i uploaded the surprising capture i mentioned below. Is there someone finding this?
About this confer https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?23314-Post-your-BMS-4-33-Screenshots-here!&p=338760&viewfull=1#post338760================================================== ====================
Dear all,
I made a new mission for the landing. This is a kind of ‘impossible landing’.
Many simmers train ‘impossible landing’ by considering 1. low visibility 2. cross wind.
We are going to consider other important factors, gross weight (GW), field elevation, and temperature.
In particular, Heavy GW, High field elevation, and High temperature (Three H) greatly influence takeoff/landing distance.
For this training, we moved to Samjiyon AB near Mt. Baekdu.
The AB has field elevation ~4400’ and the current temperature is ~45degsC (just imagine it is due to green house effect).
The AB has two runways, (5L/23R) and (5R/23L). The first one has short field length, ~5000’ and another is ~6500’.
Our arms and storage are 4A120, 6MK82, 2T370, ECM: total GW ~ 40k , DI~244. It’s really heavy for landing. This is a training for us.
Don’t drop them during the training.
When we starts the mission from Runway, we are on 23R.
We will takeoff, tour Mt. Baekdu and land. This is very short mission.
(A side note: I saw a surprise image in waypoint #3: around Mt. Baekdu ; there is a lake, called Cheonji, volcano lake in the Mt. ; search the lake )
After the short trip, we land on 23R/23L. Choose the longer runway, 23L.
With ‘three H’ situation, it is really hard to land safely. If u land safely at the first trial, u’re a master of landing.
There is a validation check. After a landing on the runway, taxi on the ramp, stop and spend time >20mins there.
If you use over wheel braking, u will see a broken nose wheel.
To avoid over stress braking, we need aero-braking from the touchdown on the runway to ~100 KIAS (this is a SOP).
If u spend a lot of time on the aerobraking, u will overrun. Do the job quickly and exactly.I broke many times and overrun. But I found many problems on landing. I thought alot thing about landing.
I hope this mission will help you think once again on a landing.
I also uploaded one of success landing ACMI file. It’d better to see it on BMS ACMI view because u can see the runway.

Update: 051217
One of solns:
1. Best speed is important
In p140 HAF-F-16-Supplement, descent speed as a function of drag is shown ; because of the current DI is 21 , the descent speed is between 215 and 220 KCAS.
However, when u follow the speed, u may not reach ~77nm. The speed is a rough calculation I think. My experience is the best speed in the current situation is ~195KCAS and AOA~8degs and FPM 4~5 pitch down.
2. Because the initial speed (~360KCAS) is above the best speed, once u get in the cockpit, get the altitude consuming the speed to the best speed.Dear all,
I prepared other training mission, maximum range descent.Current situation:
The plane is heading to W3 with left distance of ~77nm, alt ~31k’ , speed of 360 KIAS, fuel remaining of ~250lbs. ; GW is ~21000 and DI is 21.
No wind, standard temperature, high pressure environmentGoal:
Your mission goal is landing on Sokcho AB near W3 (very close) with very limited fuel.Please follow the rule for best performance of the training.
1. once you enter the mission, stop/halt time. (“important” ; if you are late to do that, the mission is getting easy)
2. do not drop AA weapons. (if you drop them, it’s easier)
3. find a best speed for the profile ; it is dependent on mostly DI. The real life document (HAF-F16-Supplement) is helpful to get this info.
4. during a flight, set your VHF on Sokcho, call ‘emergency landing’Thanks,

================================================== ====================Hello all,
I prepared the new training, Air refuel without a refueller turn.An air refuel is hard job for a virtual pilot but it must master for becoming a real virtual pilot. It is so rewarding. I am also a novice for air refuel in particular in the condition with a refuller turning. So before master the refuel during a turn, let master refuel without a turn. so I devised TE mission for refuel with KC-10 without turn. The logic is simple and makes refuel area to extend from South Korea to China. The refuller will turn after he arrives China. U have enough time to test ur refuel skills without concern for “entering turn”
Considerations:
1. Your plane is f16b52 with full AA weapons and 2 wing empty fuel tanks of 600gallon. Once u enter to cockpit, you will see a refueller, KC10, in front of u, 3~4nm.
2. Request refuel (Y-1) and open refuel door and approach and wait for his permission and refuel until the wing fuel tanks full, amount 8k lbs. After done refuel, ask him to ‘refuel done (Y-4)’
3. For more test ; dump ur fuel by key, alt-d (default key) ; and u can check ur fuel status in single digit number by MISC-2 (Bingo).
4. No enemy is here ; don’t worry for entering North Korea and China.Thanks

Hello, all
Another impossible landing mission is ready. A crosswind landing was existed in BMS4.32 default mission. I added two more difficulties: overcast with low visibility (~6nm) and high GW(35k lbs) but it’s doable.
1. Landing AB is Mandumi (UHF: 253.4) and the runway is R20.
2. The plane is F16bk52 armed with 4G38,partly full 2T370, and AA weapons (GW 35k lbs ; DI200).
3. Since weather is low visibility situation and the AB has no ILS and TCN, the better approach is circling landing after u are visual on AB. But when u follows the waypoints, the final waypoint, W8 is assigned to the AB and u are mostly aligned to R20.
4. Crosswind info: 150degs ~25knots ; wind gust around runway
5. In the case of GW, the optimal approach speed is ~183KCAS. And landing distance is approximately 7.5k’ (ground rolling distance, 6.5k + distance run for flare due to wind burst and cross wind, 1k) which is close to the length of the runway.
6. Do not use wheel brake over 100KCAS or the excess use causes a flat tire.Enjoy the mission,

Hello all,
I prepared a training mission for TCN/VOR navigation (point-to-point ; old-fashioned but still used)Considerations:
1. The mission is Tacan(TCN)/Vortac(VOR) navigation from Shenyang in China to Fukuoka in Japan via Korea
2. Direct route is ~620nm ; TCN path route is ~660nm (it takes ~1h30m) ; FYI, the fix to fix navigation is desirable for shortcut navigation ; it requires more study on navigation routes
3. It starts in air around Shenyang in China at Dawn
4. HUD and both MFDs are blank so TCN only is available for navigation ; play like a civil plane, Cesna for TCN navigation training (GPS is available on DED ; do not use it)
5. Two TCN systems in backup and DED are used for efficient handling for TCN navigation
6. Falcon Earth is planar so the heading from started to arrived TCN or the inverse is same.
7. R2R (see below Table) is standing for radial to radial navigation (#>#: first # is inbound and second # is outbound course on the designated TCN/VOR) on TCN/VOR which needs lead turn for drawing on a smooth line
8. Armaments: two 9s and empty center-line tank
9. It starts at Dawn and finishes at Morning
10. Use autopilot between TCNs
11. Fuel quantity is enough to go Fukuoka however, try to fly optimal speed/altitude cruise.
12. Optimal fuel efficient speed: M0.84 ; altitude: 40k’
13. Big picture about the navigation and radial to radial information refer on the airmap made by Reddog, http://www.ravico.com/ST/BMS_KOREA_interactive/index2.html…
14. Make your route by seeing the airmap ; The following table is my routePassed TCN info list
# Names TCN TWR Ele Ran Alt Len R2R intA 1 Shenyang 88X 395.50 254 140 10000 x >147.2 x 2 Uiju 55X 372.00 120 100 36000 119.49 147.2>159.5 R12 3 Ongjin 58X 368.10 248 35 36000 145.19 159.5>119.6 L39 4 Osan 94X 308.80 97 140 40000 111.80 119.6>127.9 R8 5 Talsung 59X x 706 140 40000 118.32 127.9>138.1 R10 6 Pusan 87X 232.40 579 70 40000 50.07 138.1>105.9 L32 7 Fukuoka 57X 225.50 106 100 40000 127.98 105.9> x where TCN: TCN/VOR channel ; TWR: UHF freq ; Ele: TCN/VOR elevation ; Alt: optimal altitude to the next point Len: range (nm) to the current point from the previous ; R2R: radial to radial on the current point intA: intersection angle on the current point (ex.

Fix to fix navigation training in Falcon BMS
Fix-to-Fix navigation is called as the different names, direct or Point-to-Point navigation. It is often required during departure, approach, holding, and etc. The downside of this is not pinpoint navigation. This is old fashioned and because GPS is widely used, the importance of using this has been gradually decreased. However, it is necessary for military pilots to understand Bullseye which is used for target sharing. Compared to Tacan/Vortac navigation, it is directly flying a fix so saves the fuel and time (poor man’s RNAV).
Environment: bad weather with rain and winds ; low visibility
The mission takeoffs from Osan and pass the following three Fixs sequentially and lands at Mandumi airbase
Three Fixs: Bearing/Range@Tacan ; 170/35@Osan (94X) ; 80/50@Osan ; 20/30@Osan
Mandumi AB has no ILS/Tacan ; to land here, use one of two Fixs, 20/31@Kimpo, 83X or 349/16@Yangju, 96XConsiderations:
1. Because of low visibility, after visual contact on the AB, land visually such as a circling landing
2. Use autopilot att/alt hold to keep the attitude and altitude in the bad weather situation
3. The current position of the plane on HSI is the inverse location of heading of the bearing pointer ; to travel to the fix directly makes parallel of both the plane heading and the virtual line between my current position (inverse bearing pointer in HSI) and the fix position (head of course arrow in HSI) ; it needs to be considered their distances (DMEs) from Tacan.
4. Do not use GPS navigation such as HSD because three Fix points are stored on the waypoints ; use them as validation for you to arrive to the point correctlyThe zip file includes the mission file, and Tacview StaticObjects for visualization of waypoints
1. mission file: T30-FixtoFixNavigation.tac ; T30-FixtoFixNavigation.twx ; T30-FixtoFixNavigation.ini ; T30-FixtoFixNavigation.fmap ; move them to the Save folder
2. Tacview StaticObjects: FixtoFixNavi.xml ; move it to Tacview StaticObjects folder -
Hello mack97, how are you ???
Will you convert your missions to 4.34 ??
Mostly REVO !!!
Thank you !!!
malpaso -
Thanks for your attentions,
I have plan to convert them. I will upload one by one.
The problem is that 4.34 AIs skip their way-point when they cannot arrive them which means red-lines in the mission editor.
