He's gonna need to fly it first. Not released yet. Of course he may be an insider and adviser.
Puma may I please have your opinion on this?

Outwardly, very accurate cockpit layout and exterior. The continuous vibration depicted is unrealistic, especially the vertical stabilizer. The Phantom was built like a brick s**thouse. So, the vibration is only accurate during heavy maneuvering (G load). Then, the vibration was there. During preflight the Rhino was famous for not budging a bit when bumped into. The aux air doors on the belly, frequently caught the unaware crew chief or pilot/wso by suprise when inadvertently turning around during the duck walk preflight, resulting the famous “Phantom Bite”. Then, there were TERs and MERs that were common noggin impact points. In any case, the Phantom NEVER budged at all.
Then, the “E” model with the nose gun, 640 rounds of 20 mm, firing rate of 6,000 rounds per minute, provided 3 two seconds bursts. What a rush that was!

This is satisfying but takes more than a little practice.

What's so hard about that? You just put the thing in the thing. ;)
I feel their pain.

Spending time in the Heatblur F-14 gave me a sense of familiarity with the airplane. How close that was to reality I know I don't know but it was comfortable.
They say formation flying is easier in VR. I tried VR but it is just too much trouble for me. Maybe one day. I have successfully air refueled just about every plane in the game. More challenging than shooting down or bombing the AI.
Just formation flying, with a connection.(https://i.postimg.cc/g2gwrPrC/IMG-4115.jpg) (https://postimages.org/)
I bet training to connect to that hose must have been exciting. I tried my first time in DCS with the F18 and realized it was quite a bit more challenging than I realized to connect and stay connected.
Are you VR or pancake?
No VR yet. Just track IR for now in DCS.

Pilot induced oscillation is a thing of beauty.
:rofl
Thank you sir

One of the guys that does the DCS blue angels fuels his hornet upside down
as for VR in DCS - it's a huge disadvantage in terms of spotting and retaining tally. People on trackir see things i can only dream of.
G2 OpenXR, configured and all that. I hope maybe nextgen set will address this somewhat. Generally on WWII services spoting anything below horizon is next to impossible.
Will wait until the Navalized (B/J/N/S) versions are released. Until then I will continue to read the BBS/O' Club purse fights.
I guess it's in the works...

nearly 2 years ago, but that seems to be par for the course with DCS and it's Mods.
