| FLIGHT SCHOOL Two more tips
from my side:
- Fly
slightly above the GS needles. When
exactly on the needles, it's a bit too
low when handing over to the ball.
- Use
the ALCS training mission and hit P(ause)
over the boat. Try to nail that 3D
picture in your head, most of the time
the ALCS gets the third. I consistently
get the 2 or 3 wire now. -Jackal And...
Good insight Tomcat, et al. The only
thing I would add is to keep the FPI on
the island until you call the ball. Keep
in mind that the Carrier is underway and
therefore the angled deck is effectively
moving from port to starboard (left to
right) from your landing perspective.
Keeping the FPI to starboard of
centerline will compensate. -Bill Hewett

| SUB SCHOOL
OPERATION MANUAL If you know only the
general area of a target, active sonar can help
you make the kill. Fire two slow, "over the
shoulder" shot weapons towards the general
area. When they get to the general zone, then go
active. Your active return will show your own
torpedoes, and you know where they are from the
plot. From that, you can judge the other returns.
A sub, will be bigger and brighter than a return
from a torpedo. If you timed it right, the return
from the target will give you a precise location.
Then you merely steer your close by fish to it
and enable them. Targets get very surprised by
this. They hear faint fish (long ways
off…must be.. no sweat)…one ping (ah
ha!! I got him) and 60 seconds later an active
ADCAP banging away close at hand (Holy
underwear…where did that come from?). This
technique is deadly effective, and most useful in
shallow water combats.
