I remember vividly trying to learn all that and all combat systems. Very good fun, it takes ages to go through the start-up procedure :D I spend weeks just mapping the bloody thing. Later on, I gave up due to lack of time (and I focused on the P-51 that just got out at the time) and I regret it as I would have to start from scratch again :o She flies lovely, but as I never flew any modern jets before, I struggled to comprehend some of the technology and I definitely lack enough buttons on my old school hotas. :( I would love to come back to that with someone who actually understands what is what.

Yep, that part of learning is the actual fun for me. Blowing up stuff comes second... As I said, part of the problem with modern birds is my old hotas - suitable up to 1950s stuff, but not much beyond. I just ordered that Cougar MFD thingy to overcome that issue. :nice:

Robo,

I do a lot of BMS and have also in DCS SU27/33 Robo, if you have questions on system feel free to ask. I'll share what I know. That's why you can fly bMS for years and years and keep learning and perfecting. The depth of the: avionics systems, surface threat weapons, a2a and a2g ordinance, data sharing modem, comms, SAMS and e/a types requires a lot out of the modern day fighter pilot. Cranium meltdown they call it.

I'd love to fly with you! I tried old Falcon very long time ago, but it didn't look anything like your AARs. I am planning to fly more of the modern jets a bit for the very reasons you named. I am now slowly getting ready for the new F-14. I don't mind flying the Sus and MiGs, but I prefer US planes. Tomcat in MiG-21 quality will be superb addition. I have lots of reading to do though. I started with "Viper pilot"...
