BMS 4.33 and Hornets

[Snake323CO]

Hey guys,
Please forgive me for this question, I’m sure it’s been answered ad nauseum, but here goes.
Just installed BMS 4.33, and was very interested in flying the F/A-18 and testing some carrier ops.
How the heck do I do that?!?!? Also, is there a separate cockpit I need to install, or does the hornet come with its owm?
Thanks for any and all help!!!
Take care

1.Create a TE
2.Task a carrier (under task force)
3.Task a flight from that carrier
4.Save TE
5.Enter TE
6.Select a seat in that flight
7.Load in to pit
8.Have fun

On a side note… the Engine and fuel panels seem to be bugged out for me on a fresh install. All of the engine dials and the left fuel flow shows zeroes. Fuel display selection button doesnt work - cant see the external tanks. Am I doing something wrong or is everyone getting this?

Hey Dart……are cats 3 & 4 operational, or just cats 1 & 2? I drive over 3 & 4 but I don’t get locked in.
Thanks man

I can answer that one… only the bow cats are operational, details are in the manual.

[linmar22]

Thanks mate!

[Snake323CO]

Thanks Creeper. Didn’t know there was a manual out.

The BMS-Manual and the BMS-Training .pdf’s, as found in your install documents folder…

Quick question for the Hornet:
How do I set the Laser to CMBT in the Hornet? I can’t seem to find the List page like in the F16 neither do I find something in the Manuals about it.
Thanks for the help

[linmar22]

Tried smart scaling on and off. Same problem on both settings.

On the panel, press the 3 round knob, then 0 for mysc i think and 5 for laser

Thank you, razo!

Now if we can get a moving map in the lower MFD, all would be great. Awesome as it is though
