Re: F/A-18C
So far I only trained with the basics such as start up, take-off, runway landing and carrier trap. But what a blast when you start to master that beast

That was a spot on landing but the meatball still gave you no grade. Pretty much same results here - seems like no matter how good my grove is, the ball always tells me to eat shit 
Re: F/A-18C
I caught the 4th wire instead of the 3rd but since everything is so new to all of us and since the real pilots struggle with this exercise as well I'm pretty happy with that one. It takes hundreds of trainings on a runway before being allowed to train on a carrier so we can't expect to be perfect so quickly. And the closer you are to the meatball the more sensitive it becomes.

Biggs. You can jettison individual stuff. You need to have Master Arm on, then rotate the silver cuff of the jettision knob to the right. Then hit the button in the middle.Biggs wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 2:31 amBomb stores are bugged... doesnt release the quantity you have selected... also you cant jettison anything individually... only the emergency jett button works.
a bunch of others things just haven't been implemented yet, but that's already been stated.
Glad its finally out though. Its a joy to fly.

Re: F/A-18C
I've just started messing with this bird. Still trying to get all my "important" commands key'd and figured out, and to learn the radar, weapons etc...Big change and a lot more task saturated than flying those WW2 prop planes. This is gonna take some time getting used to.

Re: F/A-18C
I think you need to select the racks on the panel in front of the red jett button below the left MFD. Its called 'Jet Station Select'.Pathfinder wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 6:09 pm
