  1. Wingman Permission to Engage- help

    I have to admit, this one is baffling me & I feel I'm missing something simple. When in range of a bandit my wingmen request permission to engage. The manual states that I can press the "Y" key to allow this. It doesn't work though, Y just opens the Tanker comm page as usual. I have studied the keychart & found no info there at all. Is there an old salt out there who can tell me what the actual key command is, or if one exists? Hooked
  2. Help with landing, mission 9

    It's definitely more art than science. I usually bounce my landings pretty badly, but in the old F4 I used to smash the engine nozzle by flaring too much. So, practice makes...slightly better.
  3. Wingman Permission to Engage- help

    Aha, thanks. I guess I'm remembering the old Jane's series where you could give an "Affirmative" to the wingies' call. I actually had a MiG-21 to the rear of the flight & told the other element to clear their six- I assumed at the time they would shoot whatever they found. However, they asked permission first, so I tried to get a padlock so I could tell them to "Engage my target". Before that happened they both called "engaged defensive", & then they got smoked.
