RE: 4.33 HUD time to waypiont carrot missing?
So if you enable the time caret, you lose your ‘estimated time remaining to steerpoint’ reading?

RE: Heading scale callback
For those disoriented when the heading tape falls off the HUD under g-loading you could, in addition to the HSI and HSD, use the big display outside the cockpit for directional reference.

RE: Refueling tips anyone?
Probably one of the more radical suggestions is to practise with the HUD turned off (Dee-Jay has a
) as it forces you to react to what the tanker is doing and not use the HUD as a crutch, trying to second-guess speed, the horizon etc.For anyone who is still getting good at AAR form up on the tankers wing (without calling ‘done refuelling’) after you’ve taken on fuel and stay in formation as the tanker flies his racetrack pattern. If you can stick with him in formation you will find flying with human wingmen so much easier.
You can do a number of variations with the built-in training TE:
- Flying #2 position (as shown below) to practice on-deck positioning. You can tailor this for the AI lead to finish refuelling in straight-and-level or turning flight by timing the tanker call.
- Disconnecting mid-turn to gently slide into post-refuel observation.
- Sticking with the tanker for longer period of time to simulate a larger flight.

RE: When to Fight, When to Run - featuring Robin Olds (Battle for Sinai)
I will share what I thought of the fight. This is just from the time i was killed. We both know I made my mistakes so I was killed immediately. But for everyones and maybe even your benefit I would like to share what I thought after my Death. First your wingman should never had said “Fox 1 inbound” unless he saw it coming at you, He should have said “Defensive” and then just performed the proper defensive procedures.
Wrong already. Judging by the weapon and aircraft systems being simulated the wingman could have made some appropriate manoeuvre and or calls before shots were fired but everyone has missed that.
I wonder how many pages of back and forth opinion the resident experts can generate once they get in on this thread

RE: Weapon Delivery Planner released
Can you elaborate, Falcas? I’m seeing that same TWX error for every user generated TE.

Open them fully after you’ve put the nosewheel on the ground!

RE: Stick Sensitivity
i give you a tip
FM_developper_note_4
page 20when in pitch up situation like the third graph
An = G cos(pitchangle)…for 45 deg pitch up, An = 0.7G
under 11deg AOA (which means the FLCS is in G command mode) the FLCS ALWAYS commands 1G when stick neutral, therefore the AC is pitching up by itself to keep 1G, if you want to fly straight at 45 deg pitch up, you need to fly at 0.7G whiich means you need to push a little on the stick
For my own comprehension is this same normal acceleration feedback the reason why the aircraft, in “hands free” cruise flight with FPM on the horizon, has a tendency to slowly pitch up into a climb? i.e. an ≠ 1 in level flight due to non-zero AOA?
