Where does GHPC go? Welcome or non-welcome?

>Black Square’s Starship arrives June 19th for MSFS
It's coming lads

>>527014472
Welcome of course, it's a sim, anything that's a simulator of some is welcome here, even strategy sim games like Sea Power or U boat.

>>527018719
>U boat
How is Uboat? I have it on my list of games to check out. Wasn't sure how arcadey it was. I also have a VR u-boat game I want to try.

>>527021029
I bought it on launch and haven't got round to playing it yet. I've seen people here say it's good though.

>>527008986 (OP)
Would but with different materials. I don't think particle board can withstand the Gs

>>527010828
The DO-335 is based, I use to fly it a lot in IL2 1946

Dead today, maybe we should leave it

/simg/ is dead and the jannies killed it

>>527040407
Look around you in this cesspool of coomer bait that is /vg/. You think pretend airliners can compete with that?
I will continue to do my best to make /simg/ just /pol/ with wings, but someone went to the jannies like this was r*ddit or something a few days ago. People got bans, and I intend to psychologically bully the individual(s) responsible until they jump off a bridge because they realize they are just a gay man in a dress.

>>527046349

Jealous of that box

RIP Silver Airways 2011-2025
The only crime they committed was daring to fly turboprops in the US.

>>527061131
RIP, nice livery

That's not silver that's pink

>>527070703
Why do you think they went bust?

Wonder how much the Starship will cost on Neofly

>>527061496
>turboprop
Uhh that reminds me too much of WW1 planes they need to go out of business.

>>527037278
Never

>>527085657
I hate how much we think like this. It’s so accurate it’s not funny. We waste so much fucking money just because the average American fears the exposed blade and justify it by saying we cut 15 minutes off the route times flying turbofan (ducted turboprop) aircraft.
Have you seen the new standing seats that just got approved? We’d rather be packed in tighter than a slave ship than watch some spinny bois out the window.

>>527094270
>I hate how much we think like this. It’s so accurate it’s not funny. We waste so much fucking money just because the average American fears the exposed gas envelope and justify it by saying we cut 15 hours off the route times flying combustion engine (contained explosion) airships.
>Have you seen the new seated cabins that just got approved? We’d rather be packed in tighter than a slave ship than smoke some cigars with the bois by the window.

I like turboprops they're cool

>>527094690
What happened to all the talk (particularly in science magazines) about the inevitable revival of blimps for the last 40 years

>>527107542
We need that helium for high tech manufacturing. Better get comfortable with hydrogen if you want an airship.

>>527107542
>reading about some airships used by the US navy
>see one that crashed right off the coast of my hometown
>the skeleton is still out there
I think they're too associated with "OH THE HUMANITY" for them to become popular. That would have to be broken somehow.

>>527111678

aw fuck man

>>527112491

simulated bump

>>527094270
To be fair on the yanks isn't the ATR a deathtrap?

>>527117904
Command: Modern Operations? I'm not sure I've even seen it talked about on /vst/, it'd probably be alright, I haven't got it myself but it's very detailed in how it simulates vehicles isn't it? It's been on my list of things to get for years but it's not a cheap game.

>>527135764
>isn't the ATR a deathtrap?
No? It's literally the safest regional airliner. And that is even taking into account them being operated by third world countries.

Ahmedabad-London Gatwick 787 has just gone down after takeoff in India.

>>527061131
>The only crime they committed was daring to fly turboprops in the US.
The US market is full of stuff like this. Americans are consumeristic idiots that wouldn't be able to buy the better product even if you told them. There are examples in every single market, like most of handgun sales being glocks when nowadays a SW MP2.0 or a gen 1 APX are unironically and statistically better handgun for the price (glock only has the brand name and aftermarket).
Cars, no need to mention anything other than F150, phones, ERRYBODY must have an IPHONE even tough even a cheap android beats it in every single metric, even cameras.
Turboprop airlines? HELL NAW MANE WE FLY BOEING HERE AND DIE LIKE PROUD AMERICANS

>>527138186
Maybe I remembering the stats wrong but I thought it had quite a high accident rate compared to other planes.

>>527138461
no, per flight hours it's actually lower than some of the most common airliners.

>>527138279
Something tells me the reason is going to be funny

>>527138903
>737 max
You already know why

>>527139004
It's a 787, return of the battery fires perhaps?

>>527139120
didn't they install the 737 software even on the 787?

>>527139170
I thought though the 737 only had MCAS because the huge engines fucked up the centre of mass?

>>527138279
Flaps 0?

>>527138903
>first Dreamliner hull-loss ever
>first Air-India hull-loss since 1985 (which was a bombing)

I don't know, seems like jeets managed to run a tight ship here.

Bird strike maybe?

This is probably the most kino cockpit in existence

Come on, not even a plane crash can keep the thread from page 10?

Goodbye MB-339A and CD

>>527151309
what's the CD

>>527151563
It's an upgrade to the MB-339CB (update of the C version for New Zealand) that gives it a better engine, HUD, UFC, 3 MFDs, Aerial refueling capabilities, etc. I think it also has the integration of some A/A missiles like the aim-9 and some A/G stull like the AGM-65.

I understand why they did the A/PAN but I still think that if IFE had made the CD version for DCS it would've sold a lot more.
Also I still think that DCS needs to create a "pilot school" focused on a single trainer with really in depth missions that cover a realistic student syllabus instead of just briefly showing you how to land a plane etc like it's currently done. Showing how to hold patterns, how to enter them, what speeds etc. I get not caring for doing cold starts, but if you're playing a simulator in multiplayer and 99 servers out of 100 has people just randomly landing wherever they want how they want (or just ditching the plane since it's quicker than landing and rearming) it seriously breaks the immersion.

>>527151102
Everyone is too busy flooding /pol/ and /n/ with shitposts about boeing and india

>>527152642
Does the 346 conk out if flown inverted for a while or can it do it indefinitely?

>>527159840
IIRC there is no limit as long as you have fuel just like the MB-339. Unlike the Viper engine of the 339 (wet sump) the 346 has a pressurized dry sump for recirculation) and each separate wing fuel cell in the 346 has its own fuel pump and emergency one so you should never have issues.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXqmQkVTIVE
A new Tank sim by Microprose just got announced.
Spearhead 2, seems to feature modern tanks with interiors and destructible buildings

>>527161375
Makes sense, some of the old trainers can't sustain it and will have a small tank that once depleted will result in flameout.

>>527162719
Looks decent, will probably take years until 1.0 though

>>527162886
yeah, the MB-326 is like that. IIRC it's around 30-40 seconds of negative Gs.

>>527138279
Darn!

>>527139386
the 737 max has a 787 cockpit

>>527138279

What's the status of the DCS vs Razbam war?

>>527181926
Everyone died

>>527181926
PLeaseee buy the MIG29

tally bandit 6 oclock!

Damn it's good to be back. Had a ~2 month break from simming. ^_^

>>527189430
Welcome back m8

>>527191007
Cheers m8. 2 months was long enough for my skills to get rusty, had to look-up some stuff I thought I already learned earlier this year.

Speaking of negative-g fuel starvation, I always do my ground attack runs in the Mirage F1 by rolling inverted, pulling to whatever negative pitch I'm supposed to be in then roll back, do my attack and then pull up.

I wonder, is this how they did it irl? Is this realistic?

>>527194568
yeah, since you're still pulling positive Gs. If they actually do that IRL I don't know, but from the few times I flew I feel like I would prefer that over positive Gs that make your head feel like it's bursting and your balls like you're falling.

>>527194568
>rolling inverted, pulling to whatever negative pitch I'm supposed to be in then roll back,
yes

Pull up

>>527181926
>>527186019
genuinely annoyed about picrel, but everything else is an acceptable loss

>>527206854
fucking forgot the image, MiG-19 is GOAT, westoids eat my asshole

GUYS

>>527135919
And Air/Naval Operations (which is shit easy to pirate (which is why I've played it and not CMO)).

The simulation is kind of abstracted, but also pretty thorough if that makes sense. Weapon hits are probability based, not physically simulated. But the probabilities make sense. Stuff like that.

There's an online database viewer that lists everything in the game if you find that sort of thing interesting. It seems to be missing a few stats compared to the in-game DB viewer though.
https://cmano-db.com/ship/1769/

>>527194568
If you pitch too hard in negative-G in the F1 you'll get a caution momentarily as a matter of fact.

>>527151102
>>527159685
>tfw no aviation event of any magnitude can keep /simg/ alive

I saw a propeller plane take off today. Flightradar doesn't know what it was. You don't think Silver is already selling their planes to third world countries do you

Are there any civilian sims that even attempt to approach MACE levels of autism?

>>527206854
>>527207114
I like the M2000 for how different it is.

It's also the closest BLUFOR match in DCS to the Mig-29A.

>>527206336
haven't seen those in a while

I'm running X-Plane 12 (latest but not beta) on Debian trixie with my custom built kernel and latest mesa3d. Getting decent performance but I would've hoped that my new RX 9070 XT would perform better, I guess X-Plane truly is just so demanding, especially the flight model, so now my CPU is the FPS bottleneck... It's running smooth, but definitely under 100 FPS avg. on 2k monitor.

>>527151309
my bad, the CD is still in service

Do you guys think Gulf, Syria, Iraq, Sinai, and maybe Caucasus and the old Lock-On Crimea can one day be merged into a single map? Like in the 2030's?

Or would that hit ED too much right in the shekels?

>>527263110
>why take one shekel when can take six

>>527212048
How do scenarios/campaigns work in Command: Modern Operations? Is there a generator or do they have to be made by hand?

>>527265876
Are the maps even that much of a step up from MSFS scenery? Are they hand made or AI generated still?

>>527256039
Yeah I haven't played FlyOut in a bit
I never finished my mach 3 beaver tail jet

>>527269767
Fucking hell the game was abandoned? That's shit.

>>527269767
looks cool

>>527267118
>Are the maps even that much of a step up from MSFS scenery?
MSFS scenery is unironically miles ahead of DCS unless you're flying nap of the earth

>>527270480
I checked to see what Tbilisi in 2024 as an example is like expecting it to be shit but it looks alright, you can tell the satellite imagery is a bit crap but the buildings cover it.

The worst place I've seen in MSFS 2020 was some literal who village in the middle of the desert in Mauritania which looked like it was from a PS2 game, but to be fair there were still buildings so it had a go and I didn't expect much.

>>527271464
very grim. Is this how Berbers really live?

>>527277353
Unironically

>>527270987
yeah, when you need to train terrain navigation MSFS is just miles ahead. DCS always looks like a videogame.due to lack of diverse textures that mimick how it would be doing CAS IRL

>>527271464
>Wow this looks like shit all the buildings are directly on the desert texture without any paths
>>527278314

>>527265876
Might as well extend the Nevada map to include California since that's probably one of the next flashpoints.

>>527280115
I had to stop there because I ran out of fuel and I landed at night, spooky place, never again. The flight out was scenic though. I will continue my 'around the world in a King Air' trip at some point, I got as far as Montevideo which isn't bad from England.

>>527267118
>>527270480
Even flying NOE can be better in MSFS if you're in a photogrammetry area, fucking unmodded 2020 has better-looking buildings than some of the cities in paid terrains

>>527287191
>fucking unmodded 2020 has better-looking buildings than some of the cities in paid terrains
is that due to the recent maps? The latest I bough was Syria and it was nice unless you flew reallt low

>>527138279
Is this like a power out or something?

>>527293686
yeah they put cow shit in the fuel thinking it would give them good luck

>>527293686
Looks like a dual engine failure, they had the RAT out and the plane stalled after takeoff

>>527294414
How in the fuck do both engines fail?

>>527294805
People were talking about the large cloud of dust around the plane on takeoff, apparently it's a very dusty region.

>>527294414
it looks like they took off without flaps too

>>527295346
>took off without flaps
I assumed their hydraulics were fucked was why they were flat lmao.

>>527295446
Some debris that was found had the slats extended, in the 787 the slats automatically extend when approaching stall aoa regardless of flap setting. And if their hydraulics were fucked prior to takeoff.. then don't take off..

Rapid Dragon is impressive desu

>>527295809
yeah but have you seen the CBU 97

>>527296029
No but have you seen the bat bomb?

Cruise mode activated.

>>527298220
What king air is that?

>>527298894
X-Plane 12 default Beechcraft King Air C90b

>>527299095
Is everything functional in it? I love the King Air and it has a great cockpit, supposedly one of the most complex GA cockpits out there.

>>527299278
I love it too, though I only have learned the C172 and this King Air model so far... It's missing some minor details, but overall very functional in my opinion. I had a 2 month break from simming so I can't remember what's missing right now from the top of my head.

>>527270175
>>527270376
Yeah I don't know, apparently no one's heard from the dev (singular, just one guy) in months. If it's really abandoned that's a big shame, it had such potential. You can still get many hours of autism fun out of it if you're happy just building your wacky plane ideas, but if I were new to it and found out it's seemingly dead I probably wouldn't buy it now
Here's hoping the guy will be back

Interesting RNAV approach. Just landed but I pulled the chart out too late so was confused for a few seconds first.

>>527301350
For me it's the chadnav approach

>Flying any recommended approach
>Listening to those fags in the ATC trying to tell you vectors

>>527283480
Have you gone over eastern Pennsylvania? I think someone was flying over Philly and South Jersey a few threads ago. Can you see anything or are the forests too dense? I just took a drive down Lincoln Drive and it's nice. I imagine Appalachia has to look nice too. I have to go to Carbon county a lot and it's beautiful.

OH NONONONONO HAHAHAHAHA!

>>527305167
Oh god please let this be true because that would be so fucking funny

>>527304447
I've just gone to that exact spot to check and it's unfortunately completely fucked. The bridge is a solid block with a bit of texture on, all the trees are being interpreted as terrain, no idea why.

>>527305412
That dam has always been there.

>>527305412
I've not actually seen anything this bad in MSFS, if I can be arsed I'll report it as a bug, I wonder why it's done some of the trees but not others.

>>527305167
>>527305281
Yeah, not fucking happening. More brown bullshit artist nonsense.

Anyone who even semi-seriously flies the Tomcat in DCS knows how fucking stupid this is.

>>527306754
Well yeah but war is unpredictable, crazy things happen

>>527310712
Real chads are on 2020 until 2026.

>>527310712

You're clearly operating on some kind of bias if you're having such a strong reaction to this. The ones he already accused you of are just the most obvious.

>>527318000
>>527318582
>not believing in basically Santa Claus, that an early monkey-model Gen 4 can shoot down a peak Gen-5 is political
Jesus Christ it got fucking brown in here.

I bet none of you idiots actually play DCS, these are all the civboomers and truckers.

>you had a strong reaction to an absolutely pants on head retarded statement, that must mean you're biased
Again, fuck you.

Israel has just shot down 20 Italian M-346s, it's over.

>>527318860
Serbia shot down a B-2, it crashed over the border in Croatia, they've already cleaned up the wreckage, just trust us on this!

Also an Iraqi goat herder shot down an Apache with a musket!

>>527318809
You literally have no idea what the fuck happened you have 0 information. Anything could've happened, only because the F-35 is more modern doesn't mean shit.
In 1999 an F-117 has been shot down over Yugoslavia by shitass 1960s soviet missiles because Americans got complacent and were overly confident in their technology and stupidly always flew the exact same route to drop bombs, and the Yugoslavs took notice of it. Something akin to this could've happened here, we don't know.

>>527319881
You're talking about a single dumbfuck flying across the path of a SAM battery, vs. an F-35 flight somehow not only not curbstomping some literal junkers from 1974, but one of them getting dropped on by said shitters in a fight.

>>527320246
Literally yes.
>You're talking about a single dumbfuck flying
how do you know the F-35 wasn't flown by dumbfucks too?

>>527320246
>>527320483
Calm down you too, all we can do is wait for confirmation

>>527320641
shhhh thats the one time the thread is alive

>>527320483
This is the first 24 hours of the conflict, nobody is complacent yet, stop huffing copium.

>>527320796
Wait what? Did another war just kick off? Either way, they probably thought "we got F-35s and they only got F-14s there's no way they can do anything" and got caught off guard

stop arguing with this retard thats the same dumbass who claimed the F35 is a declassified and open sourced project and that ED works for the US government

>>527321091
>they probably thought "we got F-35s and they only got F-14s there's no way they can do anything" and got caught off guard
Again, more childlike thinking.

>>527306754
Are Iranian F-14 still pure 70s analog or do they at least have modern digital cockpits and instruments?

>>527328931
Pretty much stock super-early F-14A Block 95's.
They were so early they don't have the chinpod TV, they don't even have the usual belly tanks, because Grumman was having problems with them, and they were delivered without them, with the intention of delivering them later, but then the Revolution happened.

I think it's mostly by hand. There are group templates you can save and load, and a good number of premade ones for stuff like airbases and carrier strike groups are included with the game. I'm just starting to get back into it after a long ass break though so I could be wrong.

>>527332435
Ah, it all makes sense now. jews though it would be a good idea to put a female driver in man's fighter jet.

>>527336568

I haven't been keeping up with nuclear holocaust strategies after mgs3, are nuclear bombers an actual practical weapon or is it all icbms and submarines?

>>527357141
Submarines as the top dog, ICBMs if you are a second rate financial power. Nuclear bombers are a half century outdated.

>>527380239
you like israel?

>>527380345
Hell no. I just like to fly where some IRL shit has happened and if possible with the relevant livery/plane.

>>527380620
If all else fails, Spain is always a safe antisemitic livery.

>>527380709
Those bastards chose the Hurjet just to offload their A400Ms to Turkey when even their top University had done a study saying the M-346 was the best choice on the current market. I won't be flying spanish liveries for a while. I do admit they have balls to act against Israel politically tho.

>>527357141
The Soviets stopped dropping gravity nukes a long-ass time ago, and the Tu-95's instead lauch nuclear-tipped cruise missiles from standoff range.

>>527380969
Ok, then Ireland is the next best bet. Or did they put a Nike store in Dublin instead of an Adidas one?

>>527382128
Now that's an idea. An IRA M-346 livery.

Now I just need to figure out how to load a Vauxhall Cavalier to the central hardpoint and I can begin razing Tel Aviv to the ground

>>527381191

Incredibly based these are still flying.
Even as an American and a big fan of The B52’s, the Bear is cooler than the BUFF.

this image is circulating on twitter with captions that this is a shot down israeli f35. which is obviously fake since its not the f35 as well as the star of david is clearly photoshopped, anyway, can any1 recognize the jet?

>>527386528

>>527387924
AI slop. Look at the orientation of the rudder vs the engine outlet, and the fact that the only fire is the afterburner still operating

>>527380345

>>527390830

>>527390895
There's some fucked up great war and interwar designs. It was a time of great innovation.

>>527390273
>>527390345
They can't fucking build anything.

Even the T-90M's that they're so proud of, that UVZ probably makes less than 100 a year of, are apparently built on old Soviet T-72B hulls pulled from storage.

Also it is believed the one reason that the ziggers could suddenly show like a dozen Armatas in 2014, but no more since then, is that even there they were built on pre-production hulls of some forgotten Soviet prototype. Pic related, one of the Object 299 test hulls that were rebuilt into Armatas.

As for the restarted Tu-160 production, they managed to make maybe four.

That looks like a bus with wings. Here's my most completed plane I attempted to make in Stormworks, honestly I mostly make ships and subs in it, I should make more planes but they're hard. It's ugly and handles like shit but it works.

>>527391593
It's beautiful.

>>527391819
I don't know how to webm but it does actually fly better than I remember, it either takes off immediately or not at all though, and I don't know why the right landing gear didn't extend.

>>527389683
Hnnnnnnng fuck. That might actually make me install MSFS. I've got about 3,000 hours in the F406 from years ago and I miss it every day.

>>527393260
irl? What's it like to fly?

>>527393486
It's fucking lovely. Complete pilot's aircraft. Light controls that are very nicely balanced, stacks of power even though the engines are derated, super reliable engines though we used to get quite a lot of snags on the avionics. Trailing link undercarriage, every landing is soft, I would say it's impossible to bounce but a co-worker managed to bounce one because he was somehow retarded enough to land on the nose wheel. Good amount of room in the wing and nose lockers, if you need it to do utility stuff it will swallow a fuck tonne of stuff through the doors - they're double barn doors instead of the OEM Cessna clamshell ones, you can fit a whole pallet between them. About the only retarded thing the French did is for some reason close the rear door over the front door so if something happens to cause it to come ajar in flight the airflow can catch it but that's very very rare.

It's fast for its class, when it's light it climbs like a scalded rat up a drainpipe. Quiet inside. Comfortablish for its age and type. I miss it terribly.

>>527394076
Apparently the head of production at inibuilds used to fly them for RVL Group in the UK so it should be an accurate rendition at least if you do get it.

>>527394510
Oh that's cool. Yeah I'll probably end up grabbing it, sounds like it might scratch the itch. If it's done well it'll be a sweet bird, pretty much 90% of everyone I knew who flew it adored it, there was a small minority who were gay or something.

>>527395302
Is it pressurised? What's the normal cruise altitude for it?

>>527395396
Nah unpressurised. We didn't used to operate them about 10,000ft because we didn't run O2 but plenty of people ran oxygen in them and it'll go up to like FL230 or 250 from memory.

>>527395476

Shame about the vortices looking crap but good job. I think there's an enhancement mod/addon to improve those in 2020

>>527414231
Thanks, yeah the vortices look a lot better in DCS. And IIRC I'm already using a mod that makes them look better, simfx or something. But maybe it changed only contrails.

>>527419593
Ah DCS I can never tell which you're playing from just the plane

>>527419714
Nono, the screenshot is from MSFS. I was just comparing them to DCS where the lex vortices are better than msfs. I fucking wish there was a 346 in DCS. In Xplane they're even worse than msfs

I can never get the three point landing right, I never pull back enough so bounce down the runway, I also end up spinning out because I over-do it with the rudder/tailwheel steering. I need more practice.

>>527526492
instead of trying to touch down on all 3 wheels touch down on your front wheels and stay level to the horizon as long as you can and let the plane lower its tail slowly by itself

I think it's normal to favor your home team. In our defence the show there is in a reduced formation due to the mid air collision from a few weeks ago. It's kinda sad that in a short while all of these teams won't perform with their current jets. The frecce will go on the M-346 (FBW so they'll degrade to performances closer to Blue angels and thunderbirds) , the Arrows are also on their last leg airframe wise and they don't have yet a replacement, the french as well (might go on the PC21, the Patrulla is going with the PC21 (the show in the video is the farewell to the C-101) and I don't know about the swiss, I think they still have a few years in them. The golden era of aerobatics is over.

you can use the quest 3 with a wire

>>527557626
It's a HDMI wire though, which loses significant FPS compared to DisplayPort. Still though, the Quest is the best option for an entry level HMD.

>>527508458
probably

>>527558280
Spending $400+ is definitely not entry level when decent sub-$100 options exist on the secondhand market.
It's the best "I have no idea what I'm doing" purchase, and the most likely to give you a good experience the first time, but it's absolutely not the best "spend as little as possible to try this shit out" option.
If you're pretty sure VR is for you, or are otherwise capable of interacting with humans enough to resell things, buy a Quest. If you're cheap, poor, or on the fence, buy a used $50-$150 last-gen headset to get your feet wet.

>how do you do differential braking in dcs without a pedal setup
depends on the aircraft. the mig21 only has 1 brake lever so you mix brake with rudder pedal deflection (not separate brakes) you can do that with a twist
otherwise you can bind 2 keys for each wheel brake (left/right)
>>527521784
>also does using the rudders in flight matter for things like adverse yaw management
also highly dependent on aircraft. on some aircraft you don't touch the rudder, other ones it's essential

either the PC-21 or they might build a new trainer althogether. It would be funny if it ends up being similar to the mb346 like the japanese one

>>527680565
the video looks fake honestly. Compare it to other bombings, how can the wings or any other part show literally no vibration, movement or transfer of energy? it looks more like they slapped a filter on it.

>>527741056
AFAIK hearing from someone who went to Avord (for RAMI) they have basically already retired the alphajet for everything beside the PAF. They are currently using the PC-21 even for advanced training (the guy said it was sorely lacking) so it's most likely the replacement for the PAF as well even if I find strange that the frogs prideful as they are would settle for a turboprop to represent them since it would make airshows abroad more challenging and less prestigious.
If they had a trainer in the works I think they would've presented it to the public years ago at the Paris Air Show but if they somehow preferred to hide it I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up looking like the M-346 as the french have had access to the M-346 since 2013 due to Singapore keeping them at the Cazaux Air Base where the SAF has a detachment. And some French pilots have been training on the M-346 in Sardinia for their representation.
Aeralis (UK startup to replace the Hawk) has a little article where they say they proposed to the french to join development to create a joint trainer, so they could also go that way.

I wish we could form some kind of ritualized warfare system where everyone agrees to use WW1 equipment forever and ever. All I want to see is modern combat footage with WW1 planes.

>>527754120
That's kind of how war used to be everyone would be standing in a line and shoot on command and it would be really formal like an event, but then during the revolution the Americans said "fuck this shit this is war" and started doing whatever the fuck they wanted to win and the British accused them of foul play.
Warfare today is no longer fighting to the death with guns and tanks but rather taking control of the political, economic and social aspects of a country and have their own population destroy the country from within by brainwashing them into voting for a parties that are secretly in alliance with the enemy.

>>527755238
>and started doing whatever the fuck they wanted to win and the British accused them of foul play.
I know this is bait, but the Americans did in fact use line formation in the revolution. There were very practical reasons that they did that. Also, all modern (for the time) nations used skirmishers and sharpshooters.

>>527755842
Sounds pretty cool. I grew up near the beach and we had an airshow every year. I need to see if they still do it. Would be happening pretty soon if they do.

>>527756737
Yeah most are around this sort of time, Duxford air festival which I've been to twice is next week I believe. Tickets are quite pricey so I didn't bother this year, there was another one near me last year that had a F-35 at but again the tickets were loads.

does the fighter version have flares?

>>527757120
I just checked and it's back on after being canceled last year. Getting some interesting ones. B-25 and a MIG-17. I don't remember seeing any Soviet planes there before but my interest in aviation was far less serious as a kid.

If I want to play PVP on I need a pure install right?
So, can I copy/ paste my current install of DCS and delete the mods from that using the cleaning utility from the launcher?
Should work no problem shouldn't it?

Well, it's official: the mail nigger left my R1-Falcon pedals at my mailbox on the end of the street to get stolen by Mexicans instead of coming to my door to get the required signature that I took the day off to give. Looks like the /simg/ exclusive review is delayed for another three months exactly!

>>527842586

What? I see no 336 HDG. This is about NDB's anyways, I think you're supposed to call it a heading instead of a radial, but I might recall incorrectly not sure. With VOR's you fly radials (a line segment you choose that originates from the VOR), with NDB's you fly a heading towards or from the NDB.

The new Marijuanas map looks really nice.

>>528110824
Pretty good, delightful to fly once you get the hang of it, but kinda annoying to get used to
There’s a lot of things that are intuitive but not familiar, and then there are some straight up weird things
The electrical system is also spastic, wants the ties open when connected to external power, and then closed when the gens are on
But once you figure out all the weird quirks, it’s very enjoyable, and a very easy plane to fly

What's the purpose of that design other than looking unique? Is it more efficient, faster, safer than conventional biz jets?

I read Black Square's King Air manual front to back and it was definitely worth it. I do like reading plane manuals but some are fucking dry, the one for Just Flight's Hawk was just full of details about how all the systems worked, it was more like a manual on how to fix the plane, interesting enough though.

Man, crew retraining must have been a breeze, going from a rocket with no lift to having all the lift.

I've read the memoirs of a Hungarian fighter pilot, it was like that retraining from the Mig-21MF to the Mig-23MF.

I really miss the Lancair Legacy, the Realair one for FSX was amazing. Supposedly Flysimware were working on one two years ago but nothing has been heard since.

I saw a wing of four SEATs absolutely PAINT this one engine slug guy completely red on othe back side of his body when we were hiking a ridge.

WARNING! THIS POST WAS MADE BY POOPDICKSCHIZO! DO NOT REPLY TO HIS SCHIZO MELTDOWN

Flew 2 practice flights with the citation x today and I'm kinda getting the hang of the FMS now. It's very different to the king air c90b which has the Garmin G530 in x-plane. I guess the FMS is better because it calculates all sorts of neat stuff like V-speeds, fuels and so on, but this is definitely a big step up from a "GA"-kinda plane. I'm messing up things all the time, like last time I was doing an approach I didn't notice ATC gave me a STAR until it was almost too late so I entered the STAR altitude and course very very late, definitely way more variables to track while flying it compared to the king air. Very fun learning this though, I must admit.

Never really came back to it since 13” is too small to sim on and I didn’t own any mac friendly joysticks at the time but I’ve been meaning to give it another shot now that they’ve supposedly got most of the kinks worked out.
