Great Job Tom Catz!
Rivers, mountains, roads etc. are very good. I think, only sea tiles need to be improved.
Thanks.

It was probably similar, but the on in #22 was a right-turn. This one was a left.
I tried to replicate and was still unsuccessful. Block 52 with center tank, TGP, two AIM120s on left wing, one (STA9) on the right. Tried M0.8 and M0.9 at 37k. No departure. I even added the “boot-full of right rudder” myself and all I got was the stall horn for a brief second. I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong.
I tried this maneuver many times but the result was same: No Departure. I think it doesn’t work in BMS.
Hi,
How long an F-16C50/52 can engage it’s afterburners indepentedly of fuel? Or, is there any limitation for AB IRL and BMS?
Thanks.
It’s also used for a type of approach that is not intended to include touching the runway, used for training purposes or equipment checks. In practice, you could say it’s an intended go around, though it doesn’t necessarily have to be followed up with the missed approach procedure.
E.g.
- F-16’s will often come to an airfield close to where I live to do an overhead break, fly a pattern until short final and then go around at approximately 200ft AGL. After that, they’ll continue with their flight.
- A pilot gets only 2 greens, and he requests a visual check. He will be cleared to overfly the runway at an altitude that is lower than normally used for overflying traffic (e.g. 500ft AGL) so that the tower controller can visually verify the status of his gear.
Oh, ok. Thank you.
Pilot approaches like a normal landing but never touches the runway?
I heard this term at a RL radio recording. It probably was a training mission (or Red Flag or something like that). Pilot requested a “low approach” and the tower approved.
Hi,
What is “low approach”? Where to use and when it is necessary?
Thanks.
