Good video, nice explanation :) Additionally, 2 tips to make AeroBraking easier. Tip 1: Keep the FPM in the middle of the Bracket (for me it’s a easier reference than the AOA indicator/indexer) Tip 2: Keep the crosshairs at around 12-13 degrees elevation. Those are just other ways to make AeroBraking efficient.
PAPI (or VASI) mnemonic: "White on white... you fly all night". "Red on red... you're dead". "Red on white... you're alright". Nice tutorail again, sir 🙂
É mais coisa menos coisa o que eu faço. (Tu fazes claro muito melhor) A pagina DED é q ainda me faz confusão mas eu chego lá um dia destes. É daquelas coisas q mesmo com o manual as vezes me baralho. Grande vídeo como sempre. Abraço
@@fisgasfighties não. Ao pequeno écran com os números e letras verdes no canto Superior direito.

@@AlexModeling atenção que o DED não é uma página, é o nome do display, conjugado com o ICP, mostra várias páginas. Por exemplo a página do INS é uma página dentro do DED. Pensa nas duas coisas como uma calculadora científica, em que o DED é o display. Eu vou começar a fazer mais tutoriais sobre as diferentes páginas, já tenho um feito sobre outra página, a dos markpoints.
@@fisgasfighties lá está. A minha dificuldade é Notória! 😁 Boa! Se assim é então vou estar mais atento do q o normal. Excelentes vídeos e muito obrigado por eles. Grande abraço! Estás num ótimo caminho!
@@AlexModeling pensa naquela página onde estão as duas frequências e o steerpoint seleccionado como a página base do DED. Nessa página só te precisas de preocupar com essas 3 coisas, os caracteres alfanuméricos abaixo têm a ver com o IFF, não nos interessam muito. Depois vais ao LIST que é basicamente o menu Iniciar do Windows onde depois escolhes a página onde queres ir. Há outras paginas que não precisas de ir ao LIST, têm "atalhos" directamente, a dos markpoints é uma delas.
@@silentone11111111 I used my keyboard to do it as I have several of the ICP functions mapped on in. But the channels can be changed on the basic page of the DED by moving the cursor to the radio in question and then use the ICP increment/decrement switch, alternatively you can press the COMM 1 for UHF or COMM 2 for VHF and then input the channel you want
Here's a tip I've mastered to make my landings as smooth as butter. Once you're 20 - 30 feet off the ground using your radar altitude, pitch up a little and keep the FPM (Flight Path Marker) as close to the horizon line as possible.
yeah i usually cut throttle and flare at 20-30 and then keep very slowly pitching up to keep the flight path marker at like 1 degree down. i am struggling with consistency tho cuz different fuel loads make the flare faster or slower but still mostly butter usually
thanks for help bro, what about short runways? I barely stop the airplane especially if it's slightly heavy after a mission sometimes I have to deploy the hook to stop and even if I start breaking once I land I still barely stop before overrun the runway. and of course I need a detailed video about the overhead landing often when I first break I find my wingman in front of me when ligning up with the runway or I have to abort due to lack of speed and altitude especially if it's slightly heavy I get back sometimes to base with bombs or harms and some fuel on external fuel tanks so it's not behaving like a clean F-16.
@@youssefidbella5979 the F-16 isn't really designed to operate on short runways. Landing on them will always be risky, especially with stores on the wings, even if you brake hard there's always the risk of overrunning the runway on the shorter ones. In the future I'll do a tutorial about overhead brakes but basically the way it works is you select overhead brake when talking to approach, then when you're on the tower frequency and you're about to perform the brake you report overhead brake just before you do it. The AI wingman should execute the overhead brake a few seconds after that.
@@fisgasfighties exactly it is not designed for short runways but sometimes there are two runways one short the other one is long. They set The long one for takeoff the short one is for landing ☠️🤣 Middle east theatre and Balkans theatre I don’t remember I had this experience in Korea
@@youssefidbella5979 yes there are a few airbases like that. Would suggest that if you're coming back with stores on the wings try to burn a lot of fuel before trying to land, get under 4000 lbs of fuel, make sure you don't land too fast and perform a good aerobraking. Even those "shorter" runways on those 2 runway bases should be long enough to get the aircraft stopped.
@@fisgasfightiesOh I was thinking more in the sense of "survive through the mission" but yeah, definitely, that too! Love your cozy editing and smaller bite-sized videos, big "lofi hip hop beats to relax/dodge SAMs to" vibes ❤
@@interruptinuse a missile evasion tutorial is something I plan to do at some point. Yeah the type of music I use will be an curious combination when dodging flying telephone poles filed with high explosive 😂
@@Gold_Roberto they sure are! Before I knew what they were back in the day I was consistently low on the glide slope, now it's not as much of an issue thanks to the PAPI lights

thanks for the vid! was wondering if you could explain the f-16i sufa EW and built in ecm
@@nxssim4118 that's something I'm thinking about doing, along with the ECM for other variants, but I still need to keep looking into it
Now I just need a video on countermeasures so I actually live long enough to land 😂
@@tobier_yt I'll do one eventually, but that's going to be a pretty complex topic, countermeasures, ECM and missile avoidance
Nice video complete with how to use the comms properly,things that most other people not mention. Well done I learned a lot.
