Civilian aircrafts

[Afy]

just asking, is there any plans to include civilians in combat zones on falcon bms, it is gonna make the operations far more close to real, both aa and ag. also thinking about outlaws, i didn’t saw any friendly aircraft as outlaw so outlaw, bandit, hostile all means go kill em all to me. it may because there can’t be a iff system modeled, maybe just a civilian transponder that can be switched off will be cool right?

In a scenario like KTO … civilian traffic would be suspended.

But for other scenarios, it cold be good to have. But AFAIK, no, this is not planned.

[Afy]

how about that transponder thing? i know it is not possible to model iff due restrictions but it would be good, isn’t it?

[Dee-Jay]

I suggest you to search of he forum for IFF … you will find a lot of topic.

It takes me back to the moment I realized airliners were overflying the Ukraine border during the conflicts…. Couldn’t believe it.

In the opening hours of any major theater conflict over the Korean peninsula, there would be civilian traffic trying to get out of the way. Heck, there were articles posted the other week about an airliner that saw the DPRK missile reentering near them, and the company position was that no changes were merited to their operations…?!

Takes a lot of risk for aviation companies to consider changing their plans.

Our (16th) TE flights are full of civilian traffic 24h per day.

sounds awesome except being TE. does not counts as flight hours.

TEs count to your logbook, IA, Dogfight and Training TEs don’t.

you fly ramp to ramp?

If so, there goes about 30 to 40% of them, depending how long your average flight is…
