@Magnum1964 hi, I made it. It is based on the tail of a F-104 painted for the celebrations.

RE: some questions about TO 1F-16CMAM-1 BMS ...N/I or not?
I was going to post something along the same line as OP but instead I just posted on the topic indicated.
The document still leaves me puzzled sometimes: I see sometimes indications like C, DF and DR. Do these refer to C block (one seat) and D (two-seat) Front and Rear cockpit? Should I take these also as place holder?

RE: FALCON BMS 4.37.1 - Documentation Bug Reports
TO 1F-16CM/AM-1 BMS
Page 154
“The DED is an integral part of the upfront controls and provides a visual display of the switch actions made via upfront controls. The primary readouts of communication, navigation, and IFF systems are included in the page selections available for display on the DED. Channel, frequency, mode, and code selections of UHF, VHF, TACAN, ILS, and IFF are presented when the appropriate page is selected. INS present position and steerpoint data may be selected for display on the DED.”
This sentence is repeated, in the second occurrence the difference ist on the last phrase it saya “INS/EGI” instead of “INS”.
Page 155
In this picture the CNI page has UHF label and frequency also on the third line. Unsure if it is an error or in some block you can have COMM2 to work as Uniform radio.
Page 156
Another concept repeated: “The middle area of line two is blank during normal operation. If the upfront controls memory is lost, the upfront controls revert to default values and DFLT is displayed in the middle of line two.
DFLT is displayed if UFC memory is lost, and the UFC automatically uses default values.”Page 157
“The CNI readout/DED page summary displays IFF modes 1, 3, C, and 4 selected, 4567 (MODE 3 code), AUTO (automatic transponder switching function), T123 (TACAN channel number), and X (TACAN band).” This seems to me the caption of a picture but ist in the middle of a paragraph without illustrations.

RE: Airport lights off during landing
Back on 4.34 or something Gioia had this problem. If I remember correctly there was no way to have lights on if landing at night after takeoff in daylight.

RE: HARM POS : threat position steerpoint changes
So handoff behavior has been intentionally reverted as it was before?

SMS Error after airstart
Hello,
i’ve seen something strange last night, This is not a proper bug report since it happened on Balkans and I was not able to reproduce it until now. You can tell if it is worth digging into it.BMS 4.37 Build 322
Initial loadout was 4x 120 (none launched), 4x AGM154A (3 launched, 1 jettisoned because hung).
After an airstart HUD shows in the low left corner 0 MRM. Pressing AA on ICP then cycles NAV and “0 NAV” (pseudo AA?) modes.
After minutes of confusion I noticed that while in “0 Nav” mode (which sould be AA/MRM mode), the SMS page reported AGM 154. Pressing OSB 6 switch to AMRAAMs correcting at the same time the mnemonic on HUD.Video
Reproducibility
Problem occurred during mp campaign on Balkasn. So far unable to reproduce with TE on KTOExpected behavior
In my experience, during airstart SMS always retained the right inventory status and never mix AA/AG loadout. -
RE: Chase view: headache guaranteed!
Don´t know if @suhkoi69 means this strange behaviour. In Orbit view (0) Track-Ir and mouse movement coexist without problems. In Chase view (9) image starts to flicker if you look at the airplane from above stretching your neck.

RE: Chase view: headache guaranteed!
@suhkoi69 same here but didn’t investigate further…

RE: Auto lase and Mav-L in BMS 4.36
To be honest, at first I was sure there was autolasing because I was seing my TGP automatically lase with a simple TMS-Up (i.e. ground stabylize lead to flashing L).
But then I noticed that in fact I was doing it wrong: my HOTAS (T16k) has separate buttons for first and second trigger detent.
The phisycal trigger is mapped as second detent, the one you press for cannon. This button causes also a stuck first detent (you need to press it at least one time, every next ground stabylize “remembers” that is pressed).Lasing with the button mapped to the first detent works as described in the manual.
All this came from muscular memory from my previous HOTAS X-52 that has a dual stage trigger.

RE: TMS up and DMS down mixing up. Repro provided.
@LorikEolmin I would first rule out problems on my side but I was sharing my cursor position and instead started a IFF interrogation. On a second attempt 1-2 seconds later worked as expected.

RE: TMS up and DMS down mixing up. Repro provided.
Is there a way to show on screen what button are you pressing and what callback is being recalled?
I am unsure about something similar that happened to me during our flight. -

@spooky wait do you mean different skins or just different tails?
