Trouble With Takeoff...

[Lt. James Cater 62]

 

 

 

After going through a long list, i ended up choosing to fly Danish Starfighters in the '79 campaign.

 

However, i ran into a bit of a problem. Something's a bit messed up and i don't have a clue what it is. It was bad enough that #3 and #4 blew up a minute or so after the shots were taken. Just to make sure, i tried reflying the mission but the results in the third screenie occured.

 

Anyone knows what happened and how i can deal with it?

Third screenie looks like Cadillac Ranch.

 

I had a similar exspirience with the Hun once. But it only did happent once

That's spoiled more than a few missions for me. I'm not sure, but I think it has to do with the landing gear, possibly in combination with the wheel brakes. I've noticed with some planes if you have the throttle forward, but the brakes engaged it will flip out and blow up like that. Another possibility is contact points.

brief your pilots that there will be no drinking 12 hrs before missions

Looks like "bouncy plane syndrome". Is that ThirdWires 104 or one of the after market 104's? ThirdWires 104 has worked fine for me, even with the Quicker Take Off mod, which can aggravate the problem.

Curious enough i'm now doing a smooth campaign flying Belgian F-104s.

 

Perhaps there was something wrong in my Danish files?
