Howdy pards, in conversation with Zukker last night seems he’s got an few evenings next week where there’s an opportunity to continue your dive into all things F-14; let me know if there’s a specific day you can all make and I will endeavour to clear my schedule.

My understanding is you want to get the skinny on Phoenixes and shooting stuff down that is far away, that right?

 

Absolutely, just like a pizza left at the door and bug out ... 

[DCS Event: Ramrod 564 - The Amiens Prison Raid]

Absolutley ... Mossie again. My thanks

The one guy who would, always, break off whatever he was doing and come to your aid.

Would cross the channel just to try and help out on your six. I had many private TS conversations with Bill, I will miss his fine old drawl.

Blue skys old buddy.

Brilliant .. nice and clean - just the facts. Better than wading through a dozen Utubes. My thanks

[Personal liveries/skins]

My Favourite Aussie skin for the Fa18c .. Magpie is our local AF Base. 

I am trying to download some of the above, but probably would like some intel as to which is the most favoured.

Cheers

[GBS key mapping, personal set ups]

The most important bit of kit is the beer stein on the right ... it appears you may be as anal as I am ... love it ...

[ethics question.]

This is not as simple as it seems. Towards the end of the war attitudes changed. Killing the airplane was the primary objective. However, if the pilot could return in another aircraft a few days later, then all niceties went south. Pilots were so few and valued that they became the primary objective. Sad. But reality.

[Lockon Platinum/ Lockon MAC / Lockon ACS - work with DCS ?]

HI,

 

I have dug up old install disks for the Lockon series (Platinum + Mordern Air Combat + Lockon Air combat Simulation) ... is it possible to install these and gain the use of the planes into DCS ?? 

I already have most of them ... but good idea. Cheers

Would that be GB as in Britain. . And excluding the colonies? .. tsk tsk. .

[Opening Downloaded missions in the ME]

Thanks Tom, works a treat ... still confused about creating a mission but have had some success so far.

Made a mssion, placed a boat in the river, created a PE2 airborne and bombed the boat.

Thought that was a bit lame, so added a couple of AA guns, and then next time got my ass shot off ... lol

[Beaufighter CLOD WaRM up - what am I missing ..]

I have the answer ... courtesy of ATAG Pattel ... start and takeoff in 15 seconds .. In a Beaufighter ... anyone who wants to know I can list it now. Its a cheat .. just brilliant .. will write it up tomorrow and post it for all.

 

[Beaufighter CLOD WaRM up - what am I missing ..]

Tried everything. waited for half and hour. (Literally) ... not warming up. Closed water rads, closed oil rad. Pushed revs up to near flooding. Still nothing. 

Read all I can on the subject, with some saying should be off the ground in 45 seconds.. ?? 

 

Really would love to fly this beastie.

[Warthog Key assignments - DCS-CLOD-BOS]

Hi, just about to receive my new Warthog Joystick and Throttle. 

But the prospect of re-inventing the wheel is daunting. I wonder if anyone has the "perfect" setup already done that I could plagiarise. 

 

Or just some suggestions, ie, I will miss the rotaries and slider on the X52 pro. Mainly for Prop RPM and rads and zoom view etc.

 

TIA.. cheers

[All debriefy and things]

Thankyou for that .. I hope to make 2020 ..BOB .. cant wait ...

 

[F-5]

Thats what its all about .... really ... 

 

[Graphics Cards]

So... I want to update from my GTX 1050TI to say... a 1070TI or better but it appears they barely have 1 or maybe 2 HDMI ports.

I am running on 3 monitors at the moment and dont know how to work around this problem .. may multiport or some such thing.

Cant seem to find a quality card with at least 3 ports. Any ideas ?
