    That clarifies a number of things I never did quite work out fully, cheers

    Hey Greg. Thanks for a detailed overview. "You want to be sure you don't shoot down the tanker. The Navy will be eternally grateful for it" 😂🤣 classic line! ;-)

    CORRECTIONS:
    - when I talk about the fuel feed, I'm pointing at the launch bar abort panel. The real feed switch is next to the WING/ EXT TRANS switch, also covered by a guard.
    - You check if the spoiler module is on by looking just below the left hydraulic pressure gauge, not the controls indicator.
    If you find any other inaccuracies please give me a shout.

      How do you control if the spoiler module is on or off? I don't meant the spoiler brake toggle, I mean the "module".

      @@algroyp3r I think you don’t control it only verify. I may be wrong though

      @@ReflectedSimulations Looking into the manual, the spoiler on/off flag under the hydro pressure window is only showing if the spoiler is pressurized. So indeed you don't control it. Weird wording in the checklist : "spoiler module armed".

    As far as fencing in, I always set my countermeasures also. It's often forgotten about by most.

      Yeah, I'm surprised it's not part of the checklist and I often forget about it myself..

    Thanks. I love these extra little things you add to your campaign, they really add to the atmosphere and immersion. I read with regards to the wing sweep and refuelling that bomb mode was meant to make it easier once trimmed as the movements the pilot could make were dampened. However it was also the sign of a nugget so I guess that's why you never see anyone do it that way.

    • @ReflectedSimulations
      @ReflectedSimulations  2 года назад +1

      With 20 degrees the pitch is definitely more sensitive, but if the tanker flies slow I guess it makes more sense than bomb mode. Depends on the situation I guess.

    Hello Reflected, you know I'm suspect to talk about your efforts!!

    Nice work.. interesting about the inverted roll to check tags everything is stowed. The movie hotshots comes to mind.

    Paco's such a cool guy, that must have been a blast to work with him. Looking forward to seeing what you produce together. BTW, loving the Fear the Bones campaign, it's a real hoot, especially the radio menu on the way back to the boat listening to old tunes and adverts. Well thought out piece of nostalgia.

      It is a blast to work with him as well as a real honor. I'm learning so much in the process, and it's going to be a really epic campaign.

    Aren't the leg belts the straps that pull the legs toward the seat during the ejection to prevent quartering or the legs hitting the dashboard?

  • @sigurdolaisen8389

    Thanks for the effort. Just out of curiosity: Are you supposed to do these types of heads down checks while rolling down the taxi way? Seems unsafe to it midly. I know it flows faster with practice, but still. Just curious what the real-lifers do here.

    • @ReflectedSimulations
      @ReflectedSimulations  2 года назад

      Good question, I've been wondering the same. Then again, in real life you had peripheral and 3D vision which has to help a lot.

      ​@@ReflectedSimulations Yeah agreed. Still an expensive airplane to do a fender bender with:) Maybe ask one of your SMEs? Regardless- looking forward to your new campaigns (Spitfire and F-14)
