Ron, I flew the F/A-18 CV landing TE earlier today. Please keep in mind this is a very early impression with about 30 minutes of flight time, but I had sen you had asked and I was also curious.

1. The F/A-18 3D pit is unfinished. No working AoA, fuel flow, nor clickable cockpit.
2. No VASI/(can't remember what the meatball is called on the boat- too much rum) working on the carrier.
3. ILS comes on, but can't tell if it's accurate.
4. No LSO.

From what I could tell in a 15-minute test, this isn't what you're looking for at VNAO. You can shoot a visual to the boat, but the AoA is F-16, no carrot lights in the pit, and no clickable pit. I did see my wingman trap, recover, taxi on the boat; I don't think you care so much about AI performance though.

In some ways it's better than FF5, but it's far below Jane's F/A-18. I haven't tried VRS yet.

Sorry man. I was really hoping to see you guys transition to Falcon so I could join up.

-Mike

correction: (left from right shift key)

And its not listed on the keymap, so a newer person wouldn't know and yes its an old joke.

How is the stability in multiplayer? Does it support more than 4-6 players without CTDs? Smooth close up formation flying?

Three of us just tried it out - not every day you get a major sim out of the blue - let alone with the Falcon DNA! It does look very good indeed.

We did have some issues, some that are probably just oversights:

--No response to ATG function, whether using the Panel or backspace. (Master Arm is on) ATA comes up and cycles with enter key, as normal. ATG loadout did show up on the jettison page.

--Hitting "M" for master mode blanked both MFDs. Left MFD recoverable hitting declutter (?) button. Not so on right MFD.

--No 2D pit, using the keyboard number key. 3D only. Checked in the Config for an option oversight, but didn't see anything.

--Kneepad didn't appear by default. There is a key press for it, but haven't tried that.

--With AA forced, loadout page is still corrupt. Can workaround it, and have not tried the software fix from another Falcon version yet.

-- Getting pinged by MiG 29 that shows on Threat Warning, but AWACS repeats "Nothings up right now" each time Nearest Threat is requested.

Looking forward to MP testing and to others' results and experiences.
