guys, where the #### is the navigation mode selector? it says its on the front IFR panel, but I cant seem to find it!!! can someone like draw an arrow to it or something? loli'm trying to make a flight from a turkish airbase to baghad intl but i'm going way off course lol...is it possible to upload a FS plan into this, so it can sort of fly a gps track? in other words, how do I navigate long distances with the F4? VOR to VOR?

Emir,According to the guys on the Cloud9 website, there is no NAV mode for the Phantom's ALCS, and certainly no GPS, so you're limited to navigating VOR to VOR. (I'm surprised there's no inertial nav in the F-4E, but I guess there was no need of one.)One thing I've noticed is that when the CDI is active (within 1-2 degrees of the set course), the ALCS will track the needle and not the HDG bug. I haven't seen anyone else comment on this, but it doesn't seem right, and it's certainly contrary to what the developers are saying in their forum.

The purist will hate me but I threw in a gps in order to find my way around.

Problem solved: FSNavigator was in Nav mode for some reason. Not having ever used FSNavigator's autopilot function, I can't say how this happened, but setting it to HDG cleared the problem right up.

Back when the Phantom entered service didnt the military use TACAN? I am not sure but I thought I have heard this mentioned before.

Yes, and still does use TACAN.
