Has a MOD been done for tandem take offs? If so could some one tell me were to find it. Thanks!

Hi Reddevil911, not so much a mod as a way of defining AI aircraft in relation to each other or in relation to your own aircraft. For example, consider the following extract from a recent mission I'm working on. It shows two F-100Ds on final approach to Phu Cat for a pairs landing, and also a couple of F-4Cs on a pairs takeoff from Da Nang. (This is all hand-crafted as I find it easier to define exactly what I want using a text editor, rather than use one of the mission editor utilities for SFP1 etc.)

See the posted Dong Hoi missions I did here at combatace (http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=3911) for a complete mission containing pairs takeoffs from Da Nang, with your own aircraft as part of a four-ship formation behind the lead pair on take off.

 

Hope this helps. Regards,
