Not a direct answer to above I'm afraid Col, but I do have some answers to your q's from the other night: From the user manual here: http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/240300/manuals/Combined Arms Manual EN.pdf?t=1485864446

Merry Christmas you mangy mutts!

Quick revision notes:

Can we all do next Monday?

@wingflyr @Zukker @DD_Sheriff 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?

Update to V2.1.0: https://github.com/heclak/community-a4e-c/releases/tag/v2.1

Lotta fixes and tweaks lads:

Great, thanks for confirming Wingy, look forward to seeing you chaps then.

@wingflyr Hey Den, we still on for Wednesday this week?

12/02/45 Maj. Ken Shear Air: Nil. Ground: 2x AAA 1x Artilery 1x Locomotive 1x Railroad cars

Notre-Dame de Paris Hotel des Invalides Palais du Luxembourg Pont Alexandre III Gare-Saint-Lazare Paris Gare du Nord There are plans to add 5 more airfields (Orly, Deadland, Friston, Poix, Triqueville) and they will be in early access. They will add these 5 and continue this work so that the total number of airfields will be more than on the Syria map. Orly (original airfield) Friston (regular airfield)

Hotfix patch to fix some of the bugs introduced with 2.8:

Ok, I have a busy week next week and it may require working late. I don’t want to set a date then have to rain check so we’ll avoid that, but if you guys are good to do an afternoon your time (Canadian) thereafter I can do any from Sat 12th onwards. Let me know.

When do your clocks go back Wingy?

Hey chaps, It's been mooted that some would like some training in The Big Fighter; if we can organise a time that's good for all I am happy to give some instruction on how to operate the Cat. Before we start, however I need you guys to be prepped; you NEED to have certain keys bound to whatever device is convenient to you and to know which is what before we start; I strongly suggest you make these keys handy as you'll be needing to manipulate these in the middle of a dogfight or tricky parts on the flight envelope. Here's the list: Weapons: Weapon selector up Weapon selector down Weapon selector depress Master Arm on and cover open Dogfight Radar Modes Target designate forward / VSL PAL Target designate up / VSL HI Target designate down / VSL LO CAGE SEAM button PLM Button Jester Controls Toggle Menu (default keyboard = 'A') Countermeasures DLC Toggle / Countermeasure Dispense Wing Sweep Manipulation: Wing Sweep Auto Mode Wing Sweep Forward Wing Sweep Aft Wing Sweep Bomb Mode I suggest we start with guns and 'winders and what the Dogfight Radar Modes do, where you'll find them useful and what their limitations are. Along with this we'll look at best practise for dogfighting in the Turkey; how to interpret gauges quickly and what the numbers you're looking for are. After that in subsequent lessons we'll look at Beyond Visual Range ops and best practises for Sparrow and Phoenix employment. Then we'll look at getting back on board the carrier and maybe Air to Air Refuelling if anyone is brave enough. On the way through these we'll talk about the RWR and manipulating the TACAN. All good? Let me know when's best for you chaps. Happy to do whenever.
