Falcon BMS Training

[Beef]

I'm considering putting together some training sessions for Falcon BMS. The sessions would be approximately 20~30 minutes with a multiplayer flight afterwards for practical application. If you're interested in attending please post a reply and I will "get on the stick". The sessions will consist of the basics, for example:

1. Cockpit orientation and Ramp start
2. Basic flight familiarization (taking off and landing; i.e., pattern work)
3. Basic navigation familiarization (getting to the target area and getting back to home plate)
4. Communications / Data-link / Pilot jargon
5. FCR (the radar) air mode
6. A2A weapons (heaters and slammers; AIM-9 sidewinders and AIM-120 AMRAAM missiles)
7. BFM (Basic Fighter Maneuvers)
8. FCR ground mode
9. A2G weapons

Please let me know if (a) you're interested, and (b) your best days / times on the weekends and Mondays (my days off :-)).

Disclaimer: I am by no means and expert on BMS, and attending these training sessions will in no way make you one either. In any event we'll have some fun and at least know a little more than we did before the training. My goal is to get us to a point where a group of us can get in the air at the same time, shwack some targets, and return to base in one piece.

This is great. You know your way around the sim.

Sign me up Beef

Weekends and Mondays are good. I am not sure of a time yet but after 20:00GMT maybe. I will let you know in a day or 2 if that’s ok? This is because I go flying on one day on the weekend but do not know which until the day before. Damn Scottish weather...   

Thank you for taking the time to do this



Do we get one of those planes?

Weekends for me due to having 0530 rise during a working day.
Look fwrd to it

Hi. I'm and I can help anyone to get around the sim if necessary. I'm no expert but I know most of the systems. The knowledge needs refreshment though Tuesdays and Thursadays  should be fine but it depends on my work. I'm definitely interested in flying with the group.

Hi guys,

there is even this pdf-file already in the i-net:

(with that file name even perfectly fitting into this topic)
it is a very detailed descrption of every step within all the essential missions,

EVEN WITH
- the necessary communication frequency of that Kunsan airfield (292.3)
- nice pictures even with those PAPI -runway -landing supporting lights (4-red or white lights in  free combination to indicate the current state of approach)-(i did not notice that one in BMS 4.32)
- the "overhead SOP", a military many aircrafts nearly simultaneous landing strategy

Author of this neat file is  "Red Dog" relating to BMS 4.33.1, created on a pleasant day within April this year.


btw screw all those default keybindings
landing gear is "g", alternating hud color is "h",
deploying chaffs and flares with "c"&"f",
using the brake with "b", air brake toggling with "alt b", airbrake manually engaging/opening with "shift b" and closing with "ctrl b"
using numpad's 2,4,6,8 for view moving/eye "roll"ing, "1" and "7" for choice between full flaps and null, "3" and "9" for the manual landing gear movement (with "alt g" enabling this) and "5" as the parking brake switch

leaving preset the
numbers above the letters for alternating the view,
and the row of qwertyu for communication
ou--> very important and not to forget
"ctrl+shift+alt  e" for ejection with "alt e" for arming the seat
and very important for jettisoning the pylons: "ctrl+shift+alt  j"
the 3 buttons between the "M" and "right shift" for enabling nose-wheel-steering (NWS)
and nose-wheel-/rudder-steering ( = fishtailing    )

still need to figure out the radar stuff
