I figured it was time enjoy some of the other jets in my ‘hangar.’ 😄 I may try some time on target with a more modern jet. See what I can achieve within the limitations of MSFS
Excellent representation of the aircrafts capabilities in bad weather. I know its 'not the norm', however a systems malfunction may force you to land somewhere in severe inclement weather, thus trusting your instruments is the only option (though the HSI might work a bit better on the real thing). I tend to think about the Harriers during the Falklands conflict and what types of weather they were up against during landings and even take offs. Couldn't have been nice. PS - away from MSFS, my online DCS squadron used to train for landings in proper pea-soup weather. Ground fog, cloud base 200ft (or less) clearing at 5,000ft. The ILS system on the A10C was superb fun to use, though it was the same for most of the aircraft with that capability. And just for fun we'd take the WW2 aircraft into it and see if we could talk each other down. Always ended with more 'BBQs' than 'walk away froms' 😄😊 Thanks for sharing the vid. Much appreciated. Stay well Sir.
The cockpit arrangement is fantastic. Really powerful and versatile. At the same time, I’m reminded of Tesla, where in addition to being fab, the entirely digital interface is also largely a massive pile of poop, long-winded in use, vulnerable and distracting.
What an interesting video ! shows what is needed for an 'all weather' attack aircraft, It'd be ever worse doing CAS at night, in a SAM contested environment, in such conditions. That E bar was dancing a merry jig, IndiaFoxtEcho might need to dampen it down a bit. I'm so used to the DCS Hornet and Viper it seems freaky to approach without an AoA donut, but I suppose the AV-8B/Harrier's VSTOL mode doesn't need one and just uses a Vertical Speed scale. Thanks Chris, for the white knuckle adventure ride. I'm going to have to add this jet to my MSFS collection now.
Really edge of your seat stuff - accuracy be damned, you made it back, Mav! I’m doing some flying in the real England this week, and the weather is fortunately nothing like this. Quite delightful actually. I was supposed to do a landing at Duxford yesterday. Weather was good but my CFI couldn’t get landing approval. I’m guessing it has to do with the Duxford air show next weekend but not really sure.
Easy to enjoy this and forget just how staggering it is that we can enjoy this sort of thing at all, let alone at home. Dynamic weather providing physical and visual impact to the simulation, whilst providing effectively real-time response to numerous complex control surfaces, whilst simultaneously providing a wealth of realistic and accurate displays to correspond with the game physics. Incredible really.
Hard to say as I’ve never been in a storm. Most pilots (especially military) will avoid them. I guess airliners may press through some stronger stuff. So it’s hard to quantify I’m afraid. The aircraft gets tossed around, the speed fluctuates with wind sheer, it’s reasonable I would say.
Hi nice video to learn from I was wondering about the route setup, can u create route setup tutorial I will appreciate very much, Thanks for this video, Dylan
I was considering taking this video down as it was user error with the ILS. In aircraft that I’ve flown the HUD bars were flight director but in the aircraft/model, it’s raw ILS data. 🤦🏼♂️
@@cgaviator oh well if I do get the plane I have to do loads of practice- but limited funds atm and now I want this, the harrier and all the ships! 🤔😉 But just got the free to carriers mod atm. Mostly fly GA and FBW a320 but thinking of branching out 😂
Make sure you’re definitely dialling in an ILS frequency and you’re in range? If it’s a ship you’re trying to ILS onto, it may be a bug where the ILS isn’t present. Do you have navigraph?
In the minute 5:00 you explain that all the windows have different buttons EFI NAV, FCS NAV, ENG, NAV, FUEL NAV, to see the different pages, but I am not able to press in the buttons, the buttons doesn´t exist for me, I just see an arrow in the cursor. I have tried stopped in the Airport and flying but nothing change. I bought the indiafoxtecho plane in MS Store inside the game few days ago, and it says it is updated. What can I do? Thank you very much.
@@cgaviator I have disabled the addons but continue with the same, and this bottons ( EFI NAV, FCS NAV, ENG, NAV, FUEL NAV)never worked for me. I play in PC.
@@cgaviator I asked to the developer in Facebook and this was his answer, I leave the answer here to help others: If you are on Xbox, that is normal - the pages are limited to the essential ones to save memory. If you are on PC, as discussed in the previous posts, there has been a mistake on the distribution so that PC users had the Xbox version on the marketplace. This will be rectified when 1.1.3 is deployed to the marketplace.
Very good old bean. I hope you don't mind but I have set you a request / challenge which I an sure you will be able to complete in your F=35B provided you have a frigate in MFS? On my channel I will post a link when it is ready.
@@cgaviator it was such a great game (and whatever the sequel was with the American plane - maybe f22?). The best bit about it was the persistent campaign mode where all sorts of stuff was going on across the map, whether you were involved or not - I really wish modern flight sims had stuff like that, rather than just multiplayer. Edit - yeah it basically came with a text book?? Whatever happened to DiD
Great (and terrifying) stuff! I know you said that it would never be flown in this weather, is the F35 not an all weather fighter? What about if there was a war, would it be considered acceptable? Is it just the risk in peace time that means it wouldn't happen?
I guess worst case war time then perhaps. I don’t know if the F35 incorporates terrain following radar. But also consider that with stealth you’d hope that they wouldn’t have to fly low through such bad weather.
Whoa, While he must be a very stupid pilot I would have to admit he also can fly that thing. High praise from a Kiwi where the love of France is limited 😁
Hi again mate, I was just wondering what mods do you run on msfs, if any at all? Do you use Google maps instead of bing maps? And what is the best weather mod to use? Cheers
@@cgaviator ok great thanks, would you be able to make an optimised settings video or go through your settings quickly on a flight you next video? So many vids out there that conflict each other haha
Important note. In the real bird, the DAS, Distributed Aperture System, is a full spherical situational awareness suite for pilots, it really helps with night flying as it can be bound to the HMDS, and wherever you look is enhanced via the DAS, like the Apache's main sensor hub with the gunner
