Keep your chin up, Hornet drivers... We're almost there!
Added 2020-08-31 22:42:55 +0000 UTCHi folks! Just a quick PSA since I am asked this question almost daily.
The Hornet guide is progressing well. The throttles are slammed forward and I'm not letting them go until I'm done with the Hornet. Here's where we're at:
- The Supercarrier features are mostly done and undergoing proofreading. A preview should be available this week.
- The Air-to-Ground radar section updates are 80 % done, and I will likely be done in the middle of next week.
- The Targeting Pod section is pretty much a complete re-write from top to bottom. This time around, it should be much more extensive and include most of its features and designation methods.
- Once the TGP is cleared up, the whole weapon needs to be revised. I know the JDAM, JSOW, and Laser Maverick sections are the most outdated ones among other things. And, of course, the AGM-84E SLAM will be added.
- The RWR (Radar Warning Receiver) requires a few more clarifications
- Radar acquisition modes will also need to be further clarified, and visual identification (VID) with the targeting pod as well.
- All of this doesn't include more typo fixes and other small things spread throughout various sections.
In an ideal world, I want to be done by the beginning of October. Then, off to update the Viper ASAP. We'll see how things go in the next weeks.

2020-09-06 19:36:16 +0000 UTCThe cockpit underwent an update, so the paper reference was removed by Leatherneck/Magnitude. To get the english cockpit, go to Options - Special - MiG-21 and select "Cockpit Livery - English Metric".

2020-09-06 14:53:25 +0000 UTCChuck. I am reading your Mig-21bis Guide at the moment. Just wondering how to get the cockpit like yours with the English switch placards and the paper reference taped to the blank space under the gunsight? Cant see it as an option to select.

2020-09-03 09:58:47 +0000 UTCDoing my best. I remain hopeful that the Falcon TGP, HARM and Maverick updates will flesh out better that poor bird.

2020-09-01 08:34:09 +0000 UTCSounds great. I am beavering away learning the F/A18C and Supercarrier. On a whim I also plonked down big dollars for the A10C , F14B and F16C. I think I will still be a way off being ready to print out the Falcon one but it sure will come in handy when you do. Sierra Bravo to you Chuck. Stay Safe.
