petermcleland 48 Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 I've just completed the work on this and here are some shots of the twelve Hunter FGA9s of 208 Squadron getting airborne in one minute and five seconds:- I've managed to squeeze the twelve traffic Hunters onto the concrete ORP. ...the "gaggle"!

Joe, I don't plan to go to FSC, but what date is it? The advanced AIBlast sound is very impressive on that scramble...I will be making a video of it soon and will post it in that section Link to post Share on other sites

I don't believe it has been done before in Flight Sim. The twelve scrambling fighters are all AI Traffic Link to post Share on other sites

petermcleland 48 Posted April 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Here is a quick and dirty video of the Squadron Scramble...I will do something more artistic when I get the time:- Best watched in HD(480) and with the sound turned up...Note, I'm filming from the other end of the runway with zoom and you won't hear any sound till they start their take-off roll Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,488 Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Just watched it! Very impressive, besides the take off roll, I love the shot of them disappearing into the distance almost jostling for position. Thanks for posting Joe Link to post Share on other sites

stu7708 244 Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Looks good, but I can't help to wonder what would happen if the leader has to abort his take-off..... Link to post Share on other sites
petermcleland 48 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Looks good, but I can't help to wonder what would happen if the leader has to abort his take-off..... Simple...The others go round him ...on the line up used that would only mean two aircraft would need to divert slightly...A worse case is a failure with a number 2 or 3 in the sections...This involves slight diversions on both sides. In practice the aborting aircraft is very soon ahead of all the unstick points and everybody will be going over the top It was fairly uncommon to scramble a squadron...more usually a pair or a four with occasionally on a big exercise two fours. I did once scramble in a twelve on an exercise in Holland. I made this scramble just for a display item which I will use for the 50th anniversary flight...In real life we went as three fours at 1 hour intervals but I want to make the simulation a bit more spectacular Link to post Share on other sites
