F18 Question

That's what I was proposing earlier......guns only. Nothing else.

And if it were legal, and to up the ante, leave G-suits / Combat Edge behind too. :)
 
I used my time in the spaces at Nellis to photocopy this from your vault. I hope this doesn't break OPSEC :)

Feel free to study that "USAF BFM gameplan"....but make sure you jink while you're at it. Yep, that looks like a level 9G turn to me -- good work.

Kill Hornet, left hand turn at 15 thousand.

Why are you dousing AVGAS on a BBQ grill that's already lit, now? :D

When you turn down BFM, all I hear is "sorry bro, I'm too busy giving my boyfriends hand-jobs". I will get the range time, and I guarantee I can write the lines onto the sked to make it happen next time we are out west. Ball is in your court Casey :)

I wish my HUD footage had such a nice planform to it......sadly, I was saddled into way too close to really get such a nice snapshot/planform view of the light grey Eagle I was gunning. I was working on joining up before he called KIO.....
 
Following this, we can take it down.....way down, for the low-angle, two-target strafe competition on the range. Am talking 10 degree Low Angle Strafe. Computed first, then manual thereafter.

Rubbing salt in my wounds Mike. CNX second day in a row, was supposed to go shoot the gun today, but the wx got in the way. I think I would launch single engine at this point to get airborne for this week's JO BFM friday. J/k......but seriously....

It's all just bar stories until you offer up the evidence. No tape, no kill, pay your $5.

The F-15E is actually underground just prior to the foul line of 10 degree LAS. Thanks, upcanted gun. FOUL, TWO!

With the down-canted gun in the Hog, Ill have to make an inverted LAS pass in order to keep the bet fair. :D

Getting it de-classed at the moment. Will post when I get it back. For now, maybe this will suffice:

"Kill Raptor right hand turn 15k" ?
 
If I flew a Raptor, I'd be really hurt by that.

Got anything that you've actually done yourself, or is a "here's what one dude did once" the best you can do? :)

Will post back with results when I get them .jpeg'd. To amend my previous, that was clearly a guns kill.
 
Fellas, this needs to be settled ASAP. Luckily I've flown BFM twice in the last 12 months, so I'm probably pretty awesome. Wait - 3 times because I hooked high aspect in MQT. AMG - Where the hell did you find that? Must have been on an old floppy drive. "Execute level 9g gameplan?" Right...I do like the "I'm 9gs and blind" though, but it should say "no joy."

MikeD...what is manual strafe? Are you bringing an A-1 to the fight?

Let's meet in the UTTR.

Fights on!!!

I would agree. There are some VERY serious charges, accusations, counter-accusations, threats, and promises being made in these last few posts. This cannot be left unsettled in any way, shape, or form.

Bring up that standby pipper thing that you use to remind yourself that you're in crossfeed, crank in the mils, and lets all go to work. :)
 
Glad you finally rogered up casey. UTTR would be cool, though I doubt I will get there anytime soon. We will have to make this happen though. Good point though, my brevity was a little off there. Either way, I promise you won't get hook'd, even if you are straining your neck to see the business end of the mighty Hornet the whole time :)
