It really is a beautiful beast isn't it? Stunning restoration. I'd love to see this at a show over here, it's been a good 10 years since we've heard a Daimler Benz in these shores.
If you can get your hands on a copy, I'd recommend the inaugural Vintage Aviation Echo (https://www.vaemag.com/preview-volume-i). Not only is it a wonderful publication, but one of the chapters is dedicated to Rote 12's restoration and test flight schedule, written by the pilot you see, renowned moustachioed RAF officer and warbird legend, Flt Lt Charlie Brown.
Fun fact: Both Fenrir and I flew with this gentleman in a Boeing Stearman many many years ago as RAF cadets on warm summer's evening as a reward for marshalling at an airshow. Ahhh memories.
Wow what a wonderful memory BB.

@wingflyr - Can we run two campaigns at the same time? I mean alternate weeks (to change the map and mix up the flying experience)?
Yes Collin you can. It will auto save in the same Saves folder you have for the Caucuses foothold you have now. You can alternate between the two or three or more if you wish.

Yes, I think I will hold off as we have at lot of things to play with. I have the Af-Stan but have not even touch it yet.
I wish they put their energy into the stuff that was announced and current maps. Marianas I know it free and doesn't make them any money but when released would stir up interest again and more purchases. The contents of the adds do make the product tempting to buy.( Tricks of the Trade)

I should be on tomorrow. I got my issue sorted out.

@wingflyr - the post where you provided downloads - are they the latest versions? I saw on the ED downloads that the Caucuses version I linked to was updated in March of this year, is the _01 version you provided a different version completely?
Yes they may have the latest updates, but the one you download will work, if you choose to use that one. You can update it later along the way and will still continue to work also.

I would recommend you go to Leka's discord https://discord.gg/cshgmgXuxE Here is the newest and latest with updated versions.
You can update them as you go with out effecting your achievement's in the mission. Lets face it when you have a DCS update, chances are something will get broken

Hi, guys.
This is my take on foothold missions that we do in our evenings. They are a lot of fun. With persistence on, which auto saves as you go.
There's so much to do for everybody and we work as a team, to take hold of areas and then quickly have to Support them by flying a helicopter or a HERC over, before it's taken back by red. ( and they can be aggressive) The AI are set form excellent to veteran. We play the missions with no Icons which makes it more challenging and immersive.
Sometimes it's very intense. Lots of air to air. That's where we need to work together, air cover role is so important as for Ground pounding, as for support roles such as helio or Herc.
Leka Who makes a variety of footholds from the previous originals(by DZSEKEB) updates them regularly and he's very dedicated to keeping them running. He's got a Discord server. link here https://discord.gg/cshgmgXuxE
They are well done, they are good on frames, and a lot of fun to do. We have done most of them to the end capturing all areas, with great difficulties at times.
Now with Squwak, we are continuing to do foothold missions along with other missions Modern and WW2 scenarios which Zukker, myself, and Sheriff create to keep it fresh.

I'm in, hopefully i wont have a bloody disconnect in the middle of it this time😬
Oh Yes, I'm In.
Yes I hear you Kev, I disco-ed out right at the beginning and could not come back, very very disappointing. I was so looking forward to it. Bloody workers working on the power line in the back laneway cut the power.
I will recruit the boys Zukker, Sherriff, Niall, Perf, and Sqwak.

@ Fen, I know a lot of folks do not like Mods and rightfully so, But 8ball and Tobi are Two of the best quality Modder's in DCS. Fortunately when DCS updates and effects the sim with their mods , they are quick to always find a fix. Their Vietnam pack is very very good, one of my favorites.

Never mind I did get them going thanks for the info Col.

Love to read up on these Colin but the links for some reason are not working.
-
Well Colin that sounds like a great idea.
Although it always great if we can choose what we need on the fly for a mission situation at hand on the fly. Pretty most of the weapons available for each helio or jet. Although there may be some that are not practical or effective. Harpoons seems to be one type but, there is enemy sea vessels that have to be neutralized or eliminated. I love the idea thou.
