1. DDz Quorum DD_Fenrir Posted October 24, 2013 1. DDz Quorum Posted October 24, 2013 Ok chaps. Here are current allocations: Mosquito FB.VI 487 Sqn Red Section 1. Squawk 2. BluBear 3. Fruitbat Yellow Section 1. Sid 2. Friar 3. Pooka 464 Sqn Red Section 1. Fenrir 2. Sweper 3. Ovy Yellow Section 1. Rox 2. Jabo 3. Alpha Mosquito B.IV 140 Wing PR Flight 1. FT Typhoon Mk.Ib (Late) 245 Sqn Red Section 1. BadAim 2. Painless 3. 4. Yellow Section 1. Crash 2. 3. Artie 4. Green Section 1. Gec 2. 3. 4. As we can see still need more pilots, so please spread the word. Mission will be run as co-op, using the new taxi-to-takeoff feature. Speedbar will be limited to heading only. Icon settings as in SEOW. Map will show path but not player icon. For those who have already committed I have uploaded the skins that will be required on the big day, plus a practise dogfight mission for you to hone your low level bombing. Find it here: http://dangerdogz.com/forums/files/file/738-mosquito-training-skinszip/ Taxiing tips for the Mosquito in advance: for those with differential throttles, lead with the left and use ~35% power to get rolling the come back to 28% and 22% for left and right engines respectively, use rudder and brakes sparingly but start any corrections much earlier than you are used to in single-engined aircraft; with enough pre-empting and practise it soon becomes a helluva lot easier.

1. DDz Quorum DD_Fenrir Posted October 24, 2013 Author 1. DDz Quorum Posted October 24, 2013 Can't tell you much at the moment but can say that a Minimum of 12 volunteers needed for this venture, with total slots available up to 25. Maybe more, depending on interest. Mosquito FB.VI slots to be filled first, with Typhoon IB escort slots available depending on interest, but at least two (preferably three) Typhoon flight leaders required or all Typhoons will have to be AI. An unarmed Mosquito B.IV photo ship to film the raid (take track) can also be available for anyone with pacifist tendancies, or designs on a Hollywood directors chair! Mission date TBC - post SEOW most likely. Awaiting imminent HSFX 7.01 Hotfix to confirm fix to Mosquito FM. Potentially mission can be run as dogfight or co-op; for various reasons I would prefer co-op but it depends entirely on you gents and your enthusiasm. Please express your interest in joining and any preference (if any as) to what you fly. I will be taking a Mossie. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted October 24, 2013 2. Administrators Posted October 24, 2013 Mossie for me too please, although equally happy with a tiffie Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Quote
BadAim Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 I'm in, assuming no schedule conflicts. I think that I would prefer a mossie, but I'll take a typhoon as a flight or squadron leader if I'm needed as my VAC system will make the job a snap. (And I'm interested to see how well the updated AI and commands work in the heat of battle. I'll work on getting my commands updated forthwith.) Quit playing with your phone and get back to work, Nick! Quote
BluBear Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 I'm in mate, especially as i now have more horsepower! Oh and mossie please! Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted October 24, 2013 1. DDz Quorum Posted October 24, 2013 Interested, Mosquito please. If needed, I will take the Photo one, just because I got that title here ... Quote
1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted October 24, 2013 1. DDz Quorum Posted October 24, 2013 I would love to join in. would like a mossie please. hopefully I will able to get more stick time. Quote
1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted October 24, 2013 1. DDz Quorum Posted October 24, 2013 A Mossie here too, if not available any plane will do. Quote

Sweper Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 Uploaded a skinpack to the vault for this mission. If Fenrir didn´t have one before? http://dangerdogz.com/forums/files/file/735-mosquito-mkvi/ Quote
1. DDz Quorum DD_Fenrir Posted October 27, 2013 Author 1. DDz Quorum Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks Swep, but I am putting together a skin pack including 487 Sqn, 464 Sqn and JG26 skins for this adventure. Will upload to vault closer to time. Quote

Crash Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Any chance of the mission file? Obviously showing only the red side Quote
1. DDz Quorum DD_Fenrir Posted November 10, 2013 Author 1. DDz Quorum Posted November 10, 2013 Negative Crash. I will post a full briefing when we establish the date we can best do this. All the info you'll need will be forthcoming then. In the meantime get used to taxiing and takeoffs in ~11mph (5m/s) winds and hitting targets precisely from low altitude. Taxiing tips for the Mosquito in advance: for those with differential throttles, lead with the left and use ~35% power to get rolling the come back to 28% and 22% for left and right engines respectively, use rudder and brakes sparingly but start any corrections much earlier than you are used to in single-engined aircraft; with enough pre-empting and practise it soon becomes a helluva lot easier. Mission will be run as co-op, using the new taxi-to-takeoff feature. Speedbar will be limited to heading only. Icon settings as in SEOW. Map will show path but not player icon. Quote
