You might wan’t to try Typophile.com, it’s a very talented community that has helped me a number of times in identifying the fonts I needed. Maybe they can help you with the font part.

RE: Campaigning in number two, three, or four
If it’s an SEAD mission you can tell your wingman to rejoin right after he says magnum, and he’ll keep the other one for later, but that’s about it I think.

RE: Crosswind Landings / "Impossible Landing" TE / Crosswind landing advice
Maybe the Norwegians had trouble during winter with icy runways and low friction coefficients? I don’t know if it’s it, it just crossed my mind right now.

RE: Reversed PAPIs
I noticed it last at Kunsan, here’s a picture from the article section. Maybe it’s just local to Kunsan, but I seem to recollect it happening also at Osan
And it’s vanilla BMS with patch 7

Reversed PAPIs
It’s a really small thing but has bugged me for a while, is there a way to fix this? The red lights should be the ones to the right of the bar, while in BMS they are on the left.

RE: Am I the only one who's missing something?
It was a couple of pages ago in this topic, but a 5% slope doesn’t mean it’s 5% all the way (which can’t btw, max is 2%, at least for civil aviation). What it refers to is the difference in altitude between runway thresholds. You could have a constant slope runway with a 2% threshold, and another runway with a lump on the middle of it and it would still be a 2% slope. All that matters is the altitude difference between the thresholds.
I thought BMS was all flat though

RE: AI AAR?
You can however frag an AI package to perform AAR, I usually do this on Deep Strikes with a tanker that I fragged myself (SP). The AI ATO frags them way south for them to be of any use usually.

RE: Taking out aircrafts on the ground
What about bombing taxiways? I know that if we taxi ourselves into a crater we blow up, but what about AI?

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
Uhm I just noticed that Covilha (LPCV) is still included. In real life it has been demolished and is now a huge telecom datacenter (maybe a nice campaign target?). Is it still too late to change this?

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
I took a look at the Moroccan AIP, their range is only GMD 06.

RE: WIP: P3 Orion.
Orion? What role can have in Falcon4 an ASW AC…?
Not sure if it’s a standard thing or not, but portuguese orions are capable of launching AGM65, AGM84 and the Mk series bombs, and are used amongst other missions for TASMO, and of course ASW. Their main thing right now during peace time is ISR and SAR.

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
Not sure about the white cloud behind it. Have you tried white with purple stroke? Or the reverse, purple with white contour. It doesn’t need to be to wide, just 1 or 2 pixels of stroke wide, just enough to separate it from the background. Also, design student tip, avoid pure colors, try washed off shades of colors, they aren’t so aggressive on the sight. Besides that, all of the above said by ney

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
Hello Joe, this is how it looks like in Jeppesen’s VFR sectionals.
187 is elevation in feet, 2459m is longest runway length. TWR is tower frequency. They only publish the VHF one here, but I think if you did like: TWR 118.100 249.0 it would be clear enough which one’s which. Also I think the ILS frequency isn’t needed here, it’s cluttering the chart and you really shouldn’t be looking for it there anyway, but rather in the approach chart.

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
@Joe:
How to see the MEF data into map. How obtain the numbers?
This should be a good starting point, I have a paper VFR chart of 2013 and there are some discrepancies, but nothing to owrry about too much.
http://skyvector.com/?ll=38.92950240970293,-8.530334461931847&chart=301&zoom=5I think those numbers aren’t MEF but actually are MORA (Minimum Off Route Altitude), difference being MEF is the maximum elevation of terrain/obstacle, while MORA is MEF+1000 feet, or MEF+2000 feet above mountainous regions. I will try to check today with my instructors.
Not sure how the editors work, but isn’t there some option to show the highest elevation of an area or something like that?

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
Hello, just did, turns out I was under the false impression that Korea didn’t have the distortion, but I checked and it does. Kadena is 7º east of the meridian. Seems like another of Falcon’s quirks. Does Falcon support magnetic declination? If it does it could be used to mitigate the distortion, otherwise I guess we’ll just have to live with it.
-
RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
Hello Joe, yes I was aware of those limitations, but I wasn’t asking about the coordinates, but about the headings. I was asking if the 360 true heading was always aligned with the meridian lines. Because at least in Korea, with the meridians always being 90º with the parallels, inherently there would be no problem, what I was concerned was if in POH the north was pointing east of the meridian, since it is skewed west at some points.

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
Hey looking good, one small request, could you add TRA54 and TRA55? I know they are temporary areas, but believe me they are here to stay (they have been around for the last 6 years at least lol), and are one of the most frequently used areas by the F16 here, sometimes for low level flight (it contains the Estrela mountain range) and even has it’s own refueling track. Here are the details:
LPTRA54

FL 245 / 1500 FT AGL H24 AIR EXERCISES, including AIR to AIR Refuelling OperationsAlso I was thinking, have you checked with the ruler in the map if the headings are correct? Since the meridians are angled I’m concerned there could be some kind of error

RE: Kneemap POH 0.7.0
Looks good, can you add the restricted areas and such, like in Korea, so we can then draw the lines for them in the HSD during training missions?

RE: POH theater - NavAids and nav. charts
Hello, as requested by Joe, im also posting this here, taken from portuguese AIP, I guess the same info is available on the spanish one. Morocco and Algeria might be a bit harder to get but I’ll try
