Wh00t!!!

Shoreham & Eastbourne are usually a firm definite for me - I'd also, after Kevs posting in the video section, like the chance to see Dan Griffith throw The Spirit of Kent Spitfire around at Manston with my own eyes! And the Mayday first show of the year at Dx is always a great way to kick off the airshow season!

When? Not sure, was thinking soon but actually might hold out for the next HSFX patch to fix the Mossies; either that or we take it out of Expert Mode.... Thoughts? Home Bases en route...? I'm torn on this issue - sure I'd like to give the option to those who for whatever reason canot make the start-time but really want to have a go, however I think for the sheer tension and racking up the challenge factor, perhaps we leave them out. Currently I'm 60/40 in favour of not having spawn points en route.

Sorry to scupper all your hard work Kev but.... we flew the mission last night @ 2m/s wind NOT the 4m/s I had thought and calculated. Tried it at 4m/s and woah! Taxiing damn near impossble. Will leave it at 2m/s. Have edited the course corrections and changes to GS accordingly on 1st thread, however this means your leg timings are now wrong....! Oops....

Recon Photos of the target now up in the gallery. Just so as you know, grab0012 is the plan view with North at the top of the pic.

Hello Chaps. New Mission announcement. Operation RENOVATE. 18/02/1944 Required: 12-18x Mosquito FBVI Pilots 8-12x Typhoon MkIB late Pilots The mission objective is the breaching of walls and buildings at Amiens Prison to allow the escape of Resistance fighters awaiting execution. Weather will be poor or rain/snow depending on peoples tastes. Proposed wind 9mph @ 035° - if we can figure out how to land! This is subject to further tests. Low level manual navigating & precision bombing. We'll be at under 100ft all the way - and that includes the Tiffie escort too. Mosquito cruising speed at 4x 500lb bomb load = ~250mph @ 70% power & pitch. Headings and distance of legs corrected for 9mph wind from 035: North Weald to Henley - 256°, 33.6 miles (257° corrected for wind, 254mph GS) 7:56 mins Henley to Littlehampton - 158°, 35.7 miles (157° corrected, 253mph GS) 8:28 mins Littlehampton to Tocqueville-sur-mer - 122°, 69.5 miles (121° corrected, 249mph GS) 16:45 mins Tocqueville-sur-mer to Senarpont - 106°, 14.3 miles (105° corrected, 248mph GS) 3:27 mins Senarpont to Bourdon - 65°, 12.4 miles (64° corrected, 246 mph) 3 mins Bourdon to 1 mile S of Doullen - 58°, 20.9 miles (57° corrected, 246 mph) 5:07 mins Doullen to B'court - 161°, 8.1 miles (160° corrected, 253 mph) 1:55 mins B'court to Albert - 256°, 7.7 miles (257° corrected, 254 mph) 1:49 mins Albert to TARGET - 235°, 5.7 miles (236° corrected, 254 mph) 1:21 mins TARGET to Senarpont - 260°, 19.6 miles (261° corrected, 253 mph) 4:39 mins Senarpont to Tocqueville - 286°, 14.4 miles (287° corrected, 251 mph) 3:26 mins Tocqueville to Hastings - 328°, 44.3 miles (329° corrected, 248 mph) 10:43 mins Hastings to North Weald - 339°, 40.6 miles (340° corrected, 248 mph) 9:49 mins Intel suggests enemy air activity likely to be low given the crummy weather, but there are several units of JG26 dispersed throughout the area. Try not to wander over their airfields; there's a fair few not far off the route. The route has been chosen to avoid known flak hotspots and also to throw Jerry off the scent of our intentions. Questions?

I am always up for some stick time in DCS world Snack! Ready to lend a hand at any point to any one who's got questions/gripes/headaches/brickwallitis with regrads to this sim, tho bear in mind I'm still working stuff out too! Got the A-10C, F-15C and P-51D pretty well covered tho the Russki birds are still elements I have yet to get familiar with. Happy to host DCS training sessions when time permits.

Not as much as these guys I'll wager!

Sir Thom-Fen reporting for duty, sah! Friday, Saturday, Sundy, Mondy, Toosdy, Wedsdee, Turdsday und Fryupday.. and Shat-a-day and funday following too if necessary.

Happy Birthday Dom!

Colin! Happy bloomin' Birthday you top eclesiastical dog you! Seems only yesterday we were celebrating your last and cringing laughing admiring of your fancy foot-work upon the dance floor. I notice we weren't invited to your birthday celebrations this year.... though considering what Sid, Jabo, Kev & I got up to last time, well, I can't blame you.

Bought it. So, the FC3 Eagle - 3d pit is oooh....! Speed is aaaaah... ! New landing physics is hmmm... not in there yet! But aside from that and a regular (but not everytime) CTD when trying to change selected weapon - okaaaayy....! - and non rotating wheels on ground roll, it's a blast. You got to expect this from a Beta release. P51D and even A-10C were chock full of such niggles in early (and even late stage) betas. Not tried anything else but the F-15 yet. Will advise when I have. And yes Arthur. Dived under a nice little girder bridge @ 650knts earlier. Wish I'd got a pic.

More like a TR.9 to my eyes... (fixed tail wheel, two pits).
