- This is a very quick video covering checking in with GCI, this is done so you can be allocated targets and missions in the multiplayer server.
Thank you for watching. - เกม
oh,you are a former fighter controller. This explains how clear and to the point you are...cool.
I am indeed, it’s great to have a hobby that ties in with experiences.
@@TacticalPascale Did you ever get a stint on 8 Sqn?
No I didn’t, I had the pleasure/misfortune of turning down the jet (they kept me as an allocator)
*** U.S. Navy Vet Here... One simple thing to begin is how to reach the GCI by saying the GCI CallSign and then Yours. It was put to me this way by saying " Hay You... It's Me " :) Great video !
and my nmeonic is "who the F' you talking to. Who the F' are you. What the F' you want!" - well works for me.
Quality content, informative but short and concise! Subbed and I'll be referring people to your channel if I ever get asked about anything multiplayer in DCS again. Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for providing all the details that no one bothered to explain before. it was a lot of confusion, doubt and unhappiness with flying in a strange environment. This makes it easier for the veterans of MP along with boosting newbies (that would be me) up to speed so much quicker and less stressful.
The discord is now up and running, check out the next video tomorrow for details and come hang out with us. We're just a small group of friends but more than happy to help anyone get into multiplayer for the first time.
Great video's Pascale! Please keep em coming.
Thx man. Really appreciate ur contents
good info, I like your videos to date. Good luck on your youtube journey :)
Thank you very much.
Loving the content man.
Great videos! I joined your discoed and love your videos and look forward to training/flying with you someday
Welcome, I look forward to it.
Digging this. I had been staying in the just dog fight servers because it was super easy and fast to get into some action, but the more realistic full-scale servers are a lot fun and thanks to your videos they aren't so confusing! I have yet to find a human GCI or ATC but still fun.
They are out there, most good servers notify players in the briefs when they are on.
Keep SRS on frequencies provided in the briefings, certainly atc/gci are not always there, they're just human after all, but the more often you play, the more chance you have to play with them around. It's fun even to just announce stuff on an uncontrolled airport, and very much useful to do so on busy airports.
edit: but after 1 year, you have more experience now! Damn, my eyesight isn't as is used to be! :D
Good work and looking forward to more content :)
Thank you, more soon.
Have my like sir. and subscription as well. Great job!
Thank you sir!
Thanx for all info.
Brilliant, again.
Thank you
please more GCI videos :)
here from hoggit
liked subbed :)
Thanks for the sub and welcome to the channel
Good videos, thanks for sharing the knowledge, do you run a server of your own? Would enjoy linking up to fly.
I don’t run a server but I fly often on the through the inferno and Hoggit servers. I will be posting a discord link soon, feel free to join it.
If I asked nicely, could you and Ralfidude, another DCS TH-camr who has done some GCI videos, make a GCI ASMR video? Seriously doing paperwork to the radio chatter is oddly relaxing.
Only if he uses the correct codewords and phraseology 😁
Awesome vid mate!
Does Angel's 25 mean 25,000 ft?
Yes, friendly height in thousands of feet
you say you not sexiest Charlie from Top Gun but you definitely sound like one)
Hello, thank you for the great videos. Question, I played GAW for first time today. Checked in with GCI but used my flight number Ford 4-1. He said he could not find me in his list. Was I supposed to use my call-sign instead? Or something else I’m supposed to do?
Use your name, as in multiplayer name. Most servers have multiple aircraft with the same callsign, your name is unique.
Good info. I am one of those guys that has srs installed, but still haven't used it, because i don't really know how to use correct callouts and that sort of thing. Could you give some more advice on that, like a communication for dummies in Dcs?
Thank you in advance
Check the channel, there are other videos about comms and more will be coming soon

@@TacticalPascale thank you, looking forward to more video's about comms.
It's also worth saying -- plain english comms is better than no comms. Don't be intimidated by a ton of brevity calls that you don't know what they mean. Sometimes plain english is just better.
602+ for AA. But for AG do you just call it explicit like the DCS bots do with JTAC? Ex 2 AGM-65E, 2 HARM etc?
@@brettswiftvideos if you've got a human JTAC in a MP server, then you'd follow an abbreviated 9-line, which is more explicit like the DCS AI does. A GCI/AIC isn't going to be issuing you a tasking though, since their job is intercept control, not ground attack control.
Of course this 'what state' is for occasions when there is no ATO, If there is ATO it is "as fragged" ...
Absolutely
What is the check in for a ground attack loadout when reporting state?
Irl the controller would see on the air tasking order but for DCS you can tell him what your intention is and target location, they might be able to divert CAP cover.
G'Day mate,
How does one check in with air-to-ground ordinance?
Cheers
Check in and let GCI know where you’re going, they’ll send CAP cover so pesky MiG-21s and F-5s don’t get you.
@@TacticalPascale What does the STATE part look like or does it apply?
Doesn’t really apply unless you are working with a JTAC/FAC. If the attack aircraft passes weapons load you can forward it to the ground callsigns.
Might be a daft question mate but how does the harrier pilot in dcs find out how much play time he has?
There is a “cruise” page on the MFDs it will tell you best alt for endurance
You can see your fuel flow per min (I think) where your nozzle temp and position is shown. I generally take my remaining fuel in lbs, subtract my bingo fuel level and then divide the value by my fuel burn rate and that tells you how many mins you have left to play. Realistically you will burn more when you get into some action so that figure is a best case scenario.
So to clarify:
Remaining fuel - Bingo fuel / Fuel Flow in lbs per min = play time remaining in mins.
@@p90arn been wondering that as well. Thanks for the info.
Is there any point to checking in as a strike aircraft? GCI won't assign ground targets to me, but maybe he'll want to know I am on frequency with him?
Yes, you can get warnings of threats, information about new tastings and help for recovery etc
I may have missed it but you never said what the + stood for on the state call.
Gun fitted with ammo.
He doesn't speak it out loud, but he does show it on the screen.
90 minutes of air time with only a centerline? Was your mission to just orbit the airfield at 300knkts? 😂 That fuel would be almost go e by the time I get to the AO at Mach 2+... 😁
It’s an example, I wasn’t passing 8000 when I had just taken off either. I had over 12000lbs of fuel too.
@@TacticalPascale ahh, ok. Was wondering what new engines you had installed in your hornet. 😁
What is meaning of climbing angles?
Angels = friendly height in thousands of feet.
Oh ok. Thanks
Hi, where can i find you??
I want to be controlled by you
Tactical DCS discord.
I'm sure theres a website for that, you kinky devil.
he cant tell us how it is in actual aviation for obvious reasons which are not obvious
Because I still need to adhere to the official secrets act and not pass out details of specific things that are not available open source.
Pff, what a fraud... 90 minutes playtime in an F-18. Are you bringing the tanker to the fight, or what? /s
It’s an example of the check in, I’m also not passing 8000 as I leave the runway.
