Can't wait to correct real life military pilots thanks to my FSX Acceleration fast training 😛 Jokes aside, if i want to feel what a military plane is like, DCS is there for me. Anything "military" in MSFS, just like FSX Acceleration, is good for singing "Highway to hell" and few other songs.

A free download? Man, that's just crazy. I continue to be amazed at the amount of free content this team makes available that almost any other company would charge a boatload for.
May 25, 20224 yr The “Top Gun: Maverick” expansion contains: A “Top Gun: Maverick Edition” livery for the F/A-18E Super Hornet. Three training missions for the Super Hornet that will allow you to master radical flight maneuvers including unrestricted take-offs, split S maneuvers, and low altitude, high-speed maneuvering through complex terrain. Five high-speed, low-level challenges that require utmost skill to navigate just above mountains and traverse through canyons. A carrier deck landing challenge, one of the most demanding operations in the world of military aviation. A never-before-unveiled hypersonic aircraft that can attain speeds of Mach 10 and altitudes greater than 150,000 feet above sea level. A mission to roar into the stratosphere. https://fsprocedures.com Your home for all flight simulator related checklist.

Doing the Darkstar challenge, I got the plane to Mach 3.7, but couldn't figure out how to properly engage the scramjets. Flipping the switch is just giving me a warning tone. Edited May 25, 20224 yr by Tuskin38
May 25, 20224 yr At least you can takeoff with the Darkstar. For me elevators don't seem to do much. As for the flight path, the third page on the main screen shows you it all. Chock 1.1: "The only thing that whines louder than a jet engine is a flight simmer."

May 25, 20224 yr I don't really mind it. It's a free update and it's positive they bring new stuff into the game completely for free meaning some of the guys who enter the fighter jet might try to fly commercial later on. Sure the menus feel a bit as a game but it's temporary, and I'm going to carry on flying the Maddog as usual. Normally it is the sim updates which creates bugs in the early days after release if they do something drastic.
May 25, 20224 yr spawning the carrier simobject in the SDK doesn't seem to have collisions, must be something special they do in the landing challenge.
