First sim I’ve played. Still have the manual at home. Maybe the box too!

I have noticed that too. Single player.

PT-22 looks a bit more fun than an Airbus!
Ask Harrison Ford about it [emoji12]

I have a couple of plotters which do it in seconds, basically its a perspex disk with a bearing scale on the outer edge. Its mounted on another disk with a grid printed on it. The centre spot is bullseye. When I get a call, I just spin the outer disk till the bearing is at the top, bottom, left or right hand side edge, aligned with the graduations, measure up the graduations, from bullseye, the range and make a mark. All the time I occasionally mark my own position the same way. Once I have both plots on the disk, I then rotate the plots so they are aligned vertically along the grid lines and from the top, I read of the bearing to target and measure the distance between the two plots using the graduations, Only takes seconds If I have been maintaining my own position. Another thing you can do is, during your preparation is, plot targets, waypoints, sam and AA positions and route etc to see if any of the hostile calls are going to be near where you are going. One of them I bought of Ebay and one at an aero jumble sale, one of them is for calculating weapon deliveries etc and intercepts and the other is just designed for working out intercepts……and oddly enough, I cannot find them despite having them both a few weeks back. But, it should not be too hard to make such a plotter, clear perspex disk with graduations on and a circualar piece of graph paper laminated and then fastened together in the middle.
I looked for these plotters on the internet but could not find them. If you could point me to some link with images, I would be grateful!
I have laminated and use a grease pencil. If I had access to erasable markers with fine points, I’d use that.
Take a look at the Datacards folder inside the Weapons Delivery Planner installation folder and you’ll find a file called DataCard.jpg. It’s the template for the datacard in the program. You could print something like that and have it laminated.

“I’ll fill them using a grease pencil for each mission. Couldn’t find an erasable marker, so the pencil is what I’m using.” - search on ebay for STAEDTLER whiteboard marker pens
I wrote that wrong. I’ve searched for the lumocolors that are erasable on Amazon before, like the 315, but the price (plus shipping plus taxes) is prohibitive, same as the plastic rings from flyboys. It ends up costing almost 5x here where I live.
Thanks for the heads up nevertheless.
Here is my solution:
I got the main checklists printed in a5 and laminated. Also laminated the airport chart and the spawn points printed in a4. Everything goes in my El cheapo kneeboard.
You can remove the checklist from the kneeboard since it’s stiff and use it as a book.
The checklists are held with this kind of ring. I wanted the ones from flyboys but the price is just to high for me.
The next thing I’m going to do is print the emergency procedures, but those won’t be laminated. I have to find a5 plastic sleeves for them yet. I will also print and laminate two blank spreadsheets with space for data that comes from WDP. I’ll fill them using a grease pencil for each mission. Couldn’t find an erasable marker, so the pencil is what I’m using.

Exactly the four corners, lol. It’s out there just you need to know what to look for, I’ll PM some links for you.
And obviously we teach this during training……
Would like to read that too. Could you send me the links?

I use the old neo’s countermeasures programming for programs one through four. Five is radar defeat with 4 chaff bundles a quarter of second apart, two salvos a second apart. Program six is IR defeat with with 2 flares 0.125 seconds apart, four salvos half a second apart. Five and six are for last ditch, turn into missile use. The others I change depending on the kind of mission I’m doing. Hope this helps.
