Hi Kweassa,
  First of all, my sincere thanks for the tuturial. I'm in the process of printing it out and a link to your post has been added to the CAF training area.
  I've got this printed out and intend to give it a whirl
very shortly. Much obliged!

Thanks Kweassa !!!  about the only thing I'd add is that the bomb doors now produce "drag" so I'd open them before running the calibration. Weather its enough drag to effect a drop I don't know, but better safe than sorry!  :)  

Thanks agian, Great tutorial !

Great thread Kwessa

The only input I have is that when in calibration mode, i'll set the speed by looking straight down, not at the target. When looking straight down, you can find a shadow or some other anomily to set your sight on to calibrate the speed. That makes it easier then to try to look far forward and locate your actual target. IMHO
