I've been a baaaaad boi.... That's a VPForce Rhino base, a 20cm Virpil cranked extension, a VKB MkIII adapater and a VKB F-14 grip. Still waititing on a VKB Black Box controller to allow the grip to connect to the PC and then I will be obliged to indulge in some rather brutal furniture modifications (calling my woodworking skills carpentry would be an insult to the trade) to (a) provide a solid mounting surface so it doesn't throw itself around like some demon-possessed jack in the box, (b) provide an arrangement that will also trap the office chair roller wheels so as not to propel me away from the PC whenever I try and use my rudder pedals and (c) allow full free and unrestriced movement to the stick (currently the desk and the chair occlude it's movement). Time for a little surgery...

In past versions cratering a runway was a good way to deny the AI use of it; whether this still holds for AI is open for testing. As for players, craters will definitely put a dent in your ability to takeoff or land…

Carrier break!

Tanking in the goo is... actually quite fun

I hear you mate, just spit-balling and trying to find a way to piss off the least amount of people!

What About Sunday's Delta? Could we make it a DCS event except when you want to run a BoX event? Just trying to get as many people flying what they want when they want....

Hey @DD_Petrol, glad to see you're joining us! We're coming up from Duxford on the Friday evening and have a table booked at a reputable local curry house for our traditional Dogz Dinner; hope you'll be partaking?

A-10A FAC(A) wins 3 x DFC in three consecutive missions by being a FACA king - listening to this I had to peel my eyebrows off the ceiling on several occasions. BEWARE - may induce imposter syndrome in any DCS wannabe FAC(A)s...

DCS World Patch is live:

Thank you FT for all your hard work. I owe you a beer next time you're over here. With regards performance for some of those flying the F-4 it should be noted that Heatblur pre-empted todays patch with a bunch of changelog notes specifically for the Phantom; it makes enlightening reading. Here's some snippets that could explain a few things, particularly those I have highlighted in bold: Full list here: https://store.heatblur.com/blogs/news/dcs-f-4e-post-release-update-changelog

Iromike at Heatblur has posted some responses, tips and recommendations in regards to some common theme user issues that are being reported with the F-4E module: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/349458-issues-you-may-encounter-when-trying-the-f-4e-for-the-first-time-and-how-to-avoid-them/#comment-5440589

One month to go! Wh00t!

Nope. Sorry Dave.

A doozy!

How about once a month we have a DCS Tuesday event for this? We can run it by the rest of the Dogz if need be; hopefully no one would be so intractable as to refuse us one Tuesday every four weeks….

How’d the testing go last night? I joined at around 2230 but no one was around.

Have to say this looks right up my allley - I'm in!

Wow. Have you come into ownership of a DeLorean with a flux-capacitor and find yourself exclaining "Great scott!" more often now Col?
