Great terrain Baltika , but I didn't find Chtulhu yet.

 

Let me share with you what I discovered : I looove the Attu Islands Air Base approach, heading 210.

 

I did it in a F-111. The mountain is too high to perform the direct approach, the F-111 should have been too fast to land safely.

So it requires a landing pattern but there's just enough place between the outermarker and the mountain to make the final 180° turn at ~150knt. It looks like a carrier landing!

After a 2 hours and 50' long flight that's a great surprise! (none of my wingmen survived the approach)

 

Thanks for that challenging terrain!

<br />Thank you very much Baltika and the others for another fabulous terrain. In my perception the most impressive we've seen up to now. It REALLY feels like a mix between Canada and Norway and I could spend hours diving and turning through the valleys and around the mountains (except being bothered by all sorts of nasty Flankers<br />and Floggers).....  It's like playing golf: it's the game that matters but the scenery adds a lot !!!!!!!!! <br /> <br />Hou doe,<br /><br />Derk <img src="http://forum.combatace.com/public/style_emoticons/default/drinks.gif" /><br />

Surely there is no need to improve anything in this Mod, but if someone like me hate to lose all wingmen on the approach after having saved their a$$es in the battle, they could change this in the KAMCHATKA_TARGETS.INI:

This will shift the position of the Shelikhovo and Casco Cove AB just slightly and bring them in more convenient position.
