Bomber feature request...
« on: July 30, 2002, 10:16:53 AM »
Allow bombers that have onboard navigators the ability to place waypoints on the clipboard similar to the mission waypoints system.  The waypoints would provide True Course hdgs that the pilot would have to correct for wind.

This feature would be a great help in lining up targets for bomb runs, especially when working over wind layers.

That is one of my biggest problem is getting alignment on the target on the approach.
I like this suggestion very much.
Now if they would allow one to dial in the speed for us old *&^% ere guys. who are not steady enough with a joystick to keep it centered on
one spot for 2 or 3 seconds or longer would be nice.

Srry DarkHawk... cant help you with holding your joystick steady :)

But I did come up with a way to get the waypoints on the map.  I created a mission for myself and included a waypoint to the base along my intended bombing line.  I was able to use the waypoint line to maintain a proper heading to target.
