BVR Q3, lol

Seats may not be armed too ^^

@@krostouin OK... Now that's ACTUALLY a reason why he might not make it back alive

@@krostouin That's an EOR check, not necessarily startup. If you have to egress the aircraft before starting takeoff roll, it's usually better to raise the canopy (or blow it) and go on foot. Unless the aircraft is in a pool of burning fuel, using the ejection seat is adding one more step that can get you killed. Because using that seat on the ground might get you killed. Jumping 6-7 feet out of the cockpit is not likely to kill you, but the chute failing to deploy will. I know they're supposed to be zero/zero seats, but there is always risk in using them. Nugget Viper pilot was killed on Shaw about a couple years back when he hit the ILS antennas with his gear, collapsed a MLG, and punched out on the runway. Parachute never deployed, and he came down in the seat and was killed by the impact. He's not the first and probably won't be the last to die from an ejection malfunction

@@bronco5334 Sure life support folks had major pucker factor on that one. Hope all of the paperwork and maintenance was square on that one.

Beatings will continue until moral improves

@@Golfrnut Never heard a more true statement

Absolute Fact!

Hyped to fly with you soon friend!

@@mikoyanyuk3938 as my wso ;)

There is a 'hear like helmet' option if you are not aware. This drops noise levels considerably. They are much louder in external views.

I am super impressed with both Razbam and ED as they get super small details correct that don't make any difference to the operation but are legit. I was waiting for this one to see if the 15 JFS was going to sound different than the 16 just like it does IRL. Sure enough they even got that detail right that only someone who has seen both start multiple times would even notice.

minus a few mistakes like forgetting to uncage the backup AGI....but otherwise pretty accurate

Still flyable, just more options at your fingertips. Find that way that works best for you.

lol mister L39 pilot yessss hahah

Hasn't he suffered enough? ;)

My understanding is that he actually followed the manual and the manual was incorrect at the time of recording

Now now. Be nice 🤣

Open to interpretation, check the last few seconds of the video.

did that say 07?

I'm sure some mod will be added in for the 35 (if it isn't already in) but just like with the 22 it will be a ton of guess work by the mod makers. Hence not realistic I'm sure.

Reason #27 why twin-tail fighters are better :)

@@Golfrnut f35 has twin tails...

@@quise5751 Doh! Made myself look like an idiot there. Lol. I deserve that. She still fat though. :)

dam still a way out then i was hopping for june, but thats what i get for setting expectations for software dev.

im the only one who noticed that EA-07-2023 could be Wensday the 06-07-2023 in two weeks

@@FlybywireTheGerman Where exactly do you derive the June from?!?

@@llama1910 in American English you that’s Month-day-year as format

It’s that last bit of hope

@@FlybywireTheGerman I know, but where in 072023 do you find a "6"?!? Might be my glasses, but I don't see one.

you mean 2 months

EA - 072023 on the UFC panel at the end of the video. Early Access - July 2023

Why do some find sarcasm so hard to detect?

we do?

​@@greatnorth3105 yeah two weeks lol

If EA isn't until July there are going to be some very hurt feelings. A month and a half and some more of watching folks push this around youtube may be great for squashing bugs in some respects, but there's going to be some very salty language passed round very soon! Lol

@@greatnorth3105last 10 seconds of the vid he types in EA-07-2023 on the UFC

@@travistolbert2647 You could well be right there...

To your first part. Noted. Good catch! To the third and fourth. No, altitude, etc not needed. You only need to input PP coords.

@@Golfrnut How does the aircraft know its 3-dimensional position then without altitude?

You'll have two chances...then you'll need to wait a bit and explain your failures while you get your bottles recharged. ;)

@@Golfrnut hated pumping up the bottles!😂

No there will not be one. There is only 3 buttons in the back that is not up front. Pilot can do all the same the backseat can. This is why they said there would not be one.

There wasn't one planned originally but RAZBAM did announce that they will be doing one but it won't get added until well into Early Access.

That would be nice to look forward to.

I'm glad they made the decision to add an AI WSO. Just because you *can* do everything from the front seat, that doesn't mean you *should* do everything from the front seat, else the Air Force would have made the Strike Eagle a single-seater like the C model. The dude's legitimately back there for a reason.

@@slpkntmggt06 I agree. While I think front seat should be in full control over A/A combat with the back seater simply providing enhanced situational awareness like what a contact likely is via RWR/EW/radar fusion; for A/G that WSO should be setting up and determining a lot more about the weapons delivery, and scouting for specific precision targets on the ground operating the radar in deeper ways so the front seat pilot can focus on flying safely in the AO and responding to mark-1 eyeball threats (like SAM launches from the ground) should they happen.

Ground coms work just fine with just the JFS running. They got that wrong in the video.

@@hunterjones225 It's called 3rd party comm software. They are well aware of the limitations.

@@Golfrnut that's not what we are talking about

@@hunterjones225 Yes, he misspoke in terms of not having comms on until emer gen. Consequence of trying to translate real life to sim life. It happens.

@@Golfrnut which is fine. It's just pretty boggling seeing people in the comments fellate themselves that this is the most 'authentic' cold-start when I can point to like 5 mistakes without even trying.

Any reasons to support your opinion?
