I have landed my damaged A10 and taxied to the parking area. I was able to rearm and refuel. When ever I ask the ground crew to repair they just say copy but don't do anything.



Am I missing something?

Turns out I have to turn the A10 off before it will repair. Turning the A10 off and back on takes forever

It's based on the L/R engine RPMs so:

1. Fire up the APU
2. Turn the APU gen on
3. Silence the master caution
4. Turn off the engines
5. At nil RPM indication request repair

Please obey all manufacturer limits for EGT prior to restarting engines. Offer not available in NV. Your mileage may vary.

Also you can ask the chief to turn on ground power first. That will keep all systems up while you shut down the engines as well. Keep the APU on with its generator as you will need it for restarting the engines. You will probably have to reload DSMS since you are probably rearming, but you will not need to load all again.

Of course speaking from real ground crew experience...if you came in missing the tip off of your right wing from battle damage, that's a code 3 grounding red X condition and you'd probably be down for at least a couple of weeks or more. In a real world, you'd be shown the spare aircraft if you had to go back up. biggrin

Eh, some 100-mph tape'll fix that right up.
