seksi CLS 747 here coming up on Tahiti omw to Auckland you'd know if you followed my blog in the previous thread

I did my man
747 is a sexy beast.

especially in UAL rainbow it's a damn shame they've just gone and copied continental and thrown Saul Bass' masterpiece in the bin fuck United, I want muh old days back
Thanks, but I'm the cunt who can't afford a damn joystick so I just shitpost and blog ETS2. Maybe another time!

Wyatt Morgan
>press key >plane instantly pitches too much, too quickly I remember trying to play IL-2 with KB/M, it was worse than Hitler.
Anthony Rodriguez
well IL-2 is obviously harder because you need to be in combat situations in FSX you just need to take off then set the autopilot and sit back
Okay, that makes sense from a realism standpoint, but what do you even do while the autopilot is on? Just watch the plane go for literal hours?
Looks neat!
Austin Reyes
The fuck do you think I'm doing bruh I'm watching videos and shitposting here, steam overlay is one helluva thing I don't sit there doing nothing for many, many hours
Isaac Hall
Well evidently, but with plane controls, are there no events to respond to, or adjustments? I'm not used to flight sims, so the question may be stupid for you, but I don't know any better.
Colton Jones
You occasionally need to respond to ATC But if you're on LNAV like me, no, the plane flies itself

Anyone know how to use the SVI mode for Mirage/Super 530D?
Of course the spics never updated their manual to include it, Chuck's guide has nothing on it, and no one seems to have made a thread on the forums.
Camden Wilson
Is there a working torrent for the CUP mod finally or is it still confusing manual patching? I feel like I should finally play some IL2 again after all the WT.
>tfw the copilot probably knew but didn't interfere because he had a lower rank Loads of these happen for stupid reasons. Air France crashed because noone bothered to look at the artificial horizon. Or didn't process the info properly if they were looking at it.
There are entire fields dedicated to figuring out why this happens and why people make really obvious errors. Really interesting, but few jobs for it.
Charles James

Connor Parker
I haven't got a fucking clue what any of the modes on the top of the PCA panel do
Levi Evans
nor do I. But SVI is supposed to be a special radar mode for the S530. Would like to know how to use it since it's apparently been implemented
Brandon King
Tbh just ask in the forums. Chances are a RAZBAM dev will give you what you wanna know
Grayson Jackson
they actually crashed because one dumbass just kept pulling back on the stick while stalling natural selection at it's finest
Samuel Hill
This is why i hate being in an airliner.
Idiots in my cockpit, fucking everywhere.
David Moore
another crash that I just watched a documentary about, Birgenair 301 the pilot's pitot tube was fucked by mud dauber wasps, but he said the copilot's was wrong even though his was obviously fucked by the fact that it didn't work on the takeoff roll he ended up putting the plane into a stall and drove it into the caribbean sea, while his crew members let him do it because his pitot tube said they were going like 350 KIAS, even though they were fucking stalling but they were shitskins so I'm not surprised
Isaac Evans
Yeah, I think that's about to happen.
Worst case scenario it's not fully implemented and I just look like a dingus.
Nolan Sullivan
If the button is there and it visibly does something then you can't be blamed
Ian Gomez
I made the thread. Maybe we'll get some answers.
Literally all of the information I've been able to find about SVI mode is that it's "HUD scan" mode, which is self-explanatory in its own right but there's some holes left to be filled.
Would be nice to know if it's a full HUD scan (to the edges of the glass) or more of a circular area around boresight and so on.
Oliver Martin
I wanna know this too. The mirage may be guesswork meme FBW but It's a neat plane and the only 4th gen fighter we have that's full fidelity so far
Jaxon Brooks
>may be guesswork meme FBW
I always see this mentioned about the Mirage here, but never a solid explanation of why anons think it's guesswork.
Anyone care to enlighten me? I know its damage model is fucked but the F-5 isn't in much better shape and no one complains about that to the same extent.
Nevermind that fact that I've seen the cunts shrug off both Super 530s and Magics. R-60s and R-3Rs as well.
Luke Davis
>flightplan is set to fly me straight into the runway I'm to approach >ATC sends me 90 degrees in the wrong direction the fuck?
Gabriel Jenkins
I guess it's because the M2K is still in service so maybe not all of its performance characteristics are classified? I'm not too sure
Aiden Watson
>tfw already watched all of mayday/air crash investigation
Elijah Reyes
Because they used performance charts from BMS.
The don't even know the climb profile let alone anything else.
Bentley Campbell
Also it doesn't mean everytime a missile explodes the plane is suppose to die, sometimes it's a proximity hit, and it hasn't damaged anything useful, it can happen.
With the mirage however you stick a missile right into it's nose while it's flying at mach one, and the missile is at mach 3, and it comes out like nothings happened, then you need to stick another missile or 2 into it. Of course the pilot doesn't try to dodge the missiles because mirage pilots are retarded.
Jaxon Mitchell
Base ATC sucks but generally it vectors you correctly. When actual aircraft file flightplans they very rarely follow it to the letter all the way through, especially in controlled air space.
Jose Price
sæm fampai just rewatching old ones I haven't watched in ages because I got nothing better to do with my time also just had probably the smoothest landing I've ever done, even if the approach was a little choppy ye but it's annoying when they vector you off somewhere else when you can easily come straight in
Nathaniel Phillips
I'm also officially in Auckland, which I'm surprised only took 60% of my fuel load when I clearly didn't go direct and had a leg over Tahiti 747 has long as fuck range Time to install more retro AI before heading to Sydney
Asher Rogers
You need to modify the flightplan manually. Typical short haul routes from Jacksonville to JFK automatically track all the way to the west coast before going north and then coming back all the way east. Because I'm used to the route I know which waypoints I need to use and can modify it manually.

Yes, just like only F-15s can win And only F-15s can fly at high alt and have music on

/simg/ I need your help.
The one type of game that is truly comfy for me is Baja racing- just sitting down for two or three hours uninterrupted and speeding across an empty desert in a fuckoff powerful truck or buggy.
The only game I have seen in years that can do this for me is Edge of Control, and while I can do a two-hour haul on it, a lot of the 'features' are irritating as fuck.
Has there been any releases that can scratch my itch?

Have you tried Fuel? It's not very realistic in terms of the vehicles themselves but the environments are breddy good and driving is fun
Carson Walker
I know, right? Seems kind of weird that it would be- who wouldn't want to be able to just race at high speeds for hours without stopping and having to deal with menus or AI. Or itchy-fist inducing voiced 'bro' managers. I'm looking at you, Dirt3.
Looks pretty, I will say that. Reviews seem mixed like you said, but I'll give it a go, thanks.
