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.

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.

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!

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.
