Klaiber Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 @Firefly - I have no idea why you'd try this without working rudder pedals, but I guess he likes doing things with two hands and one leg tied behind his back.

Firefly Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Oh boy... The movie is an absolute classic in Polish aviation circles. I'd love to do some roadbase operations myself. Finding the right stretch of road is the hard part, especially on Caucasus. Not surprised they chose the Persian Gulf, though they should've found a road with no trees or lampposts next to it. I would never attempt this without working rudder pedals. Shame they didn't use proper Polish skins. EDIT: Hey boss, look what I found... https://forums.eagle.ru/forum/english/licensed-third-party-projects/heatblur-simulations/dcs-ajs37-viggen/219721-any-good-suggestions-for-a-road-base-in-the-caucasus-map?p=5873223#post5873223 Not that I'm trying to suggest anything, but... You might have the perfect map to try some of these out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaiber Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 Hmm, that gives me an idea. Maybe I can add some Road Landing exercises to the NAV map. Let me think about it. Firefly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 You can reference two Navaids, like the intersection of ARC II-1-5 050° and II-1-6 220°. Or the simpler single fix like RSBN 04, 120° for 120km. Figure out where the good sections of roads are and then figure out the marker. The pilot might need to fly high for reception and find the area to descend. Or, using the map to draw those intersections, can use pilotage to navigate, once in the area.

Erhardt Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 From what I´ve heard Firefly, it was not a very good rifle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Not quite true. It's an excellent target rifle chambered for a superior cartridge, but as a military arm it suffers from a fragile stock (the piece of wood under the receiver and magazine is very thin), a fairly weak locking system (especially compared to the Mauser), rather slow loading (Krag speedloaders weren't used by the Norwegian military) and, most damningly of all, excessive production cost.

Wilhelm_Reinhard Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Fokker Dr.1 Replica (Sands design) with Le Rhone 9J: Chill31000 on YouTube Highly skilled pilot, wonderful videos. In his demonstration of max performance level turns, you can catch glimpses of his control inputs. Videos of run-up of the 9j without the cowl (such a simple-looking engine), barrel rolls, loops, Cuban 8s, etc. Klaiber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Just fell into this deep-dive playlist with my renewed interest in the Mi-8, due to the impending Mi-24 release. It's a refreshing series that goes a lot deeper than the majority of YT content. It doesn't just show you how, but why.
