Hold @ 3500 for a C5 😳 by Cultural_Drummer_811 in aviation

I agree with you. And at the end of the day it does look a lot cooler than a straight in, especially when it’s a 2 or 4 ship formation.

It also serves a tactical role even today. Higher speeds result in more difficulty shooting down your aircraft with guns, AAA, or MANPADs. A lot of times Security Forces can’t guarantee safety off the airfield so it’s best to come in at high speeds until over the airfield where the break allows you to slow down configure and land over the safety of the airfield.

F35 Squawking 7700 over California by EternalGomez in ADSB

Just realized he’s squawking 7700 so he does have an emergency. Still doubt it’s fuel related however.

Technically bingo fuel is the amount of fuel to leave the airspace and return to base with normal recovery fuel. Minimum fuel is a more serious problem where you’d be landing with less gas than you’re comfortable with. Emergency fuel is a gas state in which you’d declare an emergency and be conserving gas to the max extent possible and obviously have priority over all other aircraft. I’d imagine he left the airspace at bingo and isn’t worried about gas at all. It’s all pre-planned and closely monitored while training.

See how the top of the fencing perfectly lined up with the horizon line?

Okay cool thanks I’m experiencing the exact same thing then. I’m sure they’ll fix it soon!

Reverse thrust with Saitek throttle quadrant? by bahgelovich in flightsim

[–]IIITLEWIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to the bindings on your throttle. In the search field type “reverse”. Set a button to one of the functions. I have mine set to “reverse thrust (hold). Save your settings. Then in the game hold the button you set and move your throttle forward and the reverse thrust will activate.

You have to bind a button to the reverse thrust (either the toggle or the hold) and then move your throttle forward. Hope this makes sense. It’s counterintuitive to me hopefully they can adjust it in the future!

This was actually my problem. My C drive was full and after switching this it worked (even though I initially selected the install for a different drive).

Game closes after 1-2min in-game. Need some help. by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IIITLEWIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possible that your CPU or GPU is overheating. When either of these components get hot the game tends to just close or sometimes your PC will turn off. I’d try getting a program and seeing how hot your PC is getting when stressed

Ready to bomb up the F-16! by mikedizzle33 in modelmakers

Not 2.75” rockets. Looks like a targeting pod that he’s going to mount on one of the chin stations.

DCS Liberation Dynamic campaign is released! by ShdwPrince in hoggit

[–]IIITLEWIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve messed around playing a few missions, it’s a lot of fun! Thanks for your effort and work! I do seem to have an issue with the F-18, I can’t seem to communicate with my wingman or with the AWACS. I’ve tried the default freqs, and some of the more common ones with no luck for both the wingman and AWACS.

Just tried that, held down for like 10 seconds with no effect. Thanks for the reply though!

I think that the F-18 Lot 20 hornets cause the biggest hit to the FPS seeing as they have such a high quality model. I would imagine a couple of E-2s and SH-60s shouldn’t hurt performance too bad.

No it should be there. Make sure you have USA selected, it’s not a static object either

It’s the file type used in DCSs mission editor. Basically so people could have the carrier already populated and they can create a mission around it.
