FlightNight - Saturday 11th April - Persian Penetration
Flight Night V.2 Due to the carriers being, according to Stuart's technical diagnosis, "fucked"
We will be flying the following route which I'll make up some sort of story for, at 550kts and see where it takes us.
OEJB < Start
OETN
OERM
OKBK
OKAS
ORMM
OIAM
OIBH
OIBQ < Mid
Second half will be the same as the first but....wait for it.... in reverse.
Post up what you are bringing from our hangar: If you want to bring something NON FGUK then you must post a link to it up here no later than Friday evening - the now standard penalty being 1 x Large McChicken sandwich meal with Fanta to be paid to me on any attempted involvement (I'm not joking)
Comms via TS please and timing is:
8pm UK Time (BST)

Fanta? Now, Strawberry Milkshake, that's a swally!
Make sure to pack your lifejackets, rafts and maybe a radio to call for help. Midpoint is full of holes into the ocean.
Either that or bring a VTOL.

I had some great fun getting in and out of there earlier!
I probably should have mentioned that bit....
I got a Sopwith Camel and attitude,

Installation as before
If anyone fancies being a darling and helping test, I need to see what happens with some complex nasal stuff when there's lots of us in MP. Hopefully it'll let us refine the code for the Phantom FG1 and other radar equipped aircraft.
This GR9 doesn't have visible radar yet but it does have a new, almost entirely real world functional MFD, which does a nice job of being an accurate Nav display for many military jets of the late 90's onwards (particularly the Harrier and F-18 on which it's modelled)
The PFD on the left is still being built and the pitch animation has some oddities for that but I really want to see what happens once we get a few aircraft equipped with this stuff online. I'm hoping for no FPS hit at all and we can translate it all into the other aircraft.
The buttons aren't tied up to anything yet but all the functions will work when it's properly released. All it should do for now is display a nice moving map, your route
Bring it along, if you're a good egg.
