My father (a Norwegian) on his maiden flight. "Looks really cloudy down there..." My fathers instructor: "Yeah, just follow the coast a little more East" My father again: "Oooh I see an airpot!"

@@fangs_out8879 Any responsible pilot makes use of all of the tools at his disposal, including crew coordination. Any good aircrew shares the workload automatically. A RIO who is just being a passenger is a bad RIO. A pilot who tells his RIO to shut up and not help him with navigation, communication, and checklists is a bad pilot.
@@ShuRugal what you're saying is generally correct. But besides participating in checklists, the RIO is not needed for instrument approaches. They would chime in if the pilot is off parameters, but what they're doing in this video is not realistic.
@@Beaver.17 oh, without a doubt, but "the RIO wouldn't be giving the pilot PAR instructions" is a whole lot different than "The RIO is a silent passenger". That's all I was trying to communicate.
If I may give some pointers: 1.) Kobuleti has a TACAN, 67X. Radio Navigation makes your life a ton easier, especially in bad weather. Radio Nav is worth learning. Could even fly a bearing to a WP. 2.) When flying a fighter, don't worry about your landing speed, worry about your Angle of Attack, speed just falls in place then. Your target speed will vary with weight, AoA will not. 3.) Don't land long - even if you have a runway chart and know how long it is, if you don't touch down where you should, you have no idea whether it will work. Don't keep higher speed until visual, you will be too fast when landing, land long and run the risk of an overshoot. Try to be stable 1000ft before touchdown (on track, fully configured, speed/AoA established, all switches done). 4.) If you have distance info like TACAN or WP, plan for 3 miles to lose 1000ft (since you don't have land-based ILS and hence no glideslope). 5.) If you follow point 4, your expected descent rate will be approx 5x your airspeed (e.g. if you fly 180kt, descend with a rate of 900ft/min). Or put HUD in LDG mode and fly -3 degrees. 6.) Set your radar altimeter alarm so you get a warning before the terrain sneaks up on you Hope that helps, keep it up! :)
Yep, I've been playing DCS for years, though we didn't know how to use TACAN and didn't have time to figure it out in the weather, kidna caught us off guard. We've now picked up on it and have that figured out And yeah our (nexx's primarily) landings have improved significantly as we got more comfortable with the plane since I have quite literally thousands of hours in other planes so I gave him plenty of pointers on all the other sorties we've flown since this video. Thanks though! we're definitely coming back with more, already have plenty of footage.
@@Destarn Great job, always awesome to see people learn and put in the effort instead of the shallow air-quake that many MP servers devolve into! The coolest thing is always when stuff happens that was really hard and way outside the comfort zone - there are those that start training so it won't ever catch them off guard again and there are those who just shrug it off, respawn and don't care. Glad you are definitely the former and not the latter. Improving the overall skillset and not just the K/D ratio is what it is all about. Guess I'll have to sub!
Their radar altimeter was on you can hear the alarm when they hit 500 ft agl. Also leave your airbrakes on all the way through the landing. The Tomcat's engines are more responsive with the airbrakes on plus you don't have to worry about being over speed like you had. Also have your flaps down (i think you did) and engage DLC and don't be afraid to use it, that's what it's there for.
Was expecting some kind of jumpscare, such as a bandit out of nowhere (especially when I heard the RWR pings) or a friendly landing/taking off from the opposite direction.
Honestly, worst experience for me in DCS was one of the training missions where I needed to land in pitch black during rain. Managed to pull it off somehow on first try, had to change my pants after it. One of those - ok,let's never do this again - moments.
Tally is only for sighting enemies. Visual is for sighting friendlies. Contact is for sighting known point of reference such as a runway. Normally we would be tracking a needle in these conditions
I always admire the guys simming in DCS! For someone with over 3000 hours of Airbus A320-familiy experience, and roughly 2500 flighthours on Vatsim in X-Plane 11, it is still amazing to see these kind of actions! When I need to cancel the approach due to bad wheather for example, normaly there is no problem. But when you simulate combat situations while also flying a very agile plane onto the final... Cool!

Things you should Know about the Tomcat....... 1. Allways land with airbrakes and anti skid activated.(exactly as you do when landing on a carryer) 2. don't flare at all you have the toughest landing gear ever constructed for a fighter jet. 3.Don't use brakes on touchdovn (they are terrible and only usefull on taxiing) Let the anti skidd and airbrake do their job as you roll out with plenty of runway ahead of you, when your speed is down to 100 pull back on the stick all the way and you will have the stabs working as the largest airbrakes on ANY fighterjet. And you will still have A LOT of runway ahead of you.
antiskid off on the boat. You don't want to risk the spoilers coming up on touchdown in case you miss a wire. They shouldn't because you should have your power up but still, if you accidentally hit iddle cause you're too high over wires and then you bolter anyway, the spoilers would drop your nose and kill your airspeed and you'd taxi into the drink.
Poor pilot having to listen to speed calls all the way to the deck. Reminds me on Kimi Raikkonen when they asked him in an interview during rally racing if the co-pilot's calls are helpful. He replied, "I make believe I am listening"
Very Nice, Love this game! Really nice that we can actually go in as a RIO/copilot or pilot together. Would like to get this jet but my friends are too dumb to manage on this game. Cant wait for the official AC-130 drop.
Imagine doing it IRL on a moonless night, on a LHD, overcast, light fog, in a V-22. The describes the one of few landing that freaked me out the most. Trust your instruments!
Your crew chief is gonna have a fit over what you did to his landing gear with that ground loop. I’m talking a real tool tossing, trash can kicking fit ! 😏

Same shit when I was landing in severe wind and rain while my wife was shouting downstairs that my beef casserole was ready. Geez it put me off the whole landing. Some women have no consideration !
as far as runways are concerned, landing without ILS in IFR conditions really should only be done in an emergency. DCS really turns into a horror game when you're landing on a carrier at night. Real pilots who have done it usually shake uncontrollably after the landing.
@@Destarn do all airfields have the same instrument capabilities in DCS or so some have ILS and some dont? What types of approaches are available in DCS? Im sorry to bother you, I know I could check this myself and I will if its a problem.
@@aleksanderlenartowicz5659 nope it’s airfield specific. You can have TACAN, VOR,ILS. Also depends on the map, Persian Gulf used to not have any TACANs or ILS for a long time
just imagine the pilot and co pilot left the intercom on, on a commercial flight.
"so the runway is in front of us right?"
"yeah somewhere..."

is there no way to use the instruments to land vs just kind of guessing? hahahaha
There is, but we were too new to the plane to bother :p
Nice accent friend 😊
It's a mix of everything and it changes rapidly throughout the day lol
as far as runways are concerned, landing without ILS in IFR conditions really should only be done in an emergency.
DCS really turns into a horror game when you're landing on a carrier at night. Real pilots who have done it usually shake uncontrollably after the landing.
What instrument system are you landing on? TACAN/DME?
Hehe problem was none, eyeballing it till we made it. But for field landings we go with TACAN since tomcat doesn’t have ILS
@@Destarn do all airfields have the same instrument capabilities in DCS or so some have ILS and some dont? What types of approaches are available in DCS?
Im sorry to bother you, I know I could check this myself and I will if its a problem.
@@aleksanderlenartowicz5659 nope it’s airfield specific. You can have TACAN, VOR,ILS. Also depends on the map, Persian Gulf used to not have any TACANs or ILS for a long time
That’s a bingo
👍🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺..nice landing...😁😁😁
why the hell is the rio telling the pilot how to fly?
Because he was completely new to the game and has never landed in such conditions :)
Aerosucre has something to ask you. How do you not overrun?
