Hello,
I am enjoying this theater a lot, thank you for making it available.
However, it seems that WDP gets “confused” about the support flights (tanker and AWACS). WDP will show support flights on the right-hand side kneeboard, like this:
That picture is from a mission I flew where the tanker that my briefed AWACS pointed me to was Copper3 (so not any of those on the WDP page). That tanker was also the one responding on my briefed UHF13. In addition, the tanker that AWACS pointed me towards had TACAN 57Y. So the actual tanker was Copper3 on 57Y. Not among those two listed here. Note however how WDP places 57Y on Camel1 by mistake.
Does anyone know why WDP makes these mistakes ? Besides messing up TACANs, one suspicion is that there is no room on the WDP form for all tankers, at the time 7 air refuel packages were fragged and several of those were up during my flight.
Cheers,
JayB -
