Was trying to land a tomcat at night, was approaching at -1000 fpm, pushed throttle up at .3 miles, bounced, a flash of yellow and red, warning alarm, my nose wants to keep pitching down and I look at my BIT:

autopilot: NO GO
fcs: NO GO
sms: NO GO



jawdrop Smacked too hard on landing and turned my fighter jet into a 1 passenger jet with no trim!

Came around for second approach and lost my OBOGS. Would have stuck around to see more failures but final approach was nasty and wound up slamming into the ramp, at which point the game CTD at debriefing screen.

Trapping with no FCS is certainly a handful...
