For refuel - best to try with il-76 whatever it is or the viking first
because the new prop wash effects (vortex whatever they call it) made it
a heluva lot harder than before. Behind jet engines is quite a bit
easier the 130 or 135. At least in my experience (trying with mirage).
Although these twats on utube that seem to just pull up and just slide
in with no apparent effect nor even slight variation in control annoy me
beyond belief. Either that or use the viggen - it cant do it so perfect
for it.
Used to be able to do it in harrier behind anything but this has made it
lot harder at least for me (unless its the mirage is problematic). Could
be I just dont have time to practise it much

I've done:-
Start up, Take off, VFR Landing, CV Take off and Landing (Case 1), TACAN and Auto Pilot so of course the UFC.
Set up Chaff and Flares.
Done a few Guns, Sidewinder and AIM120 practices. A few GA but not much.
Played with WP Nav a bit, it seems straightforward
Not used ICLS Carrier landing yet.
Not used ECM
I tried in-flight refuelling but it's very tricky and I put it aside for now.
Next thing was to play with the JHMCS
I usually grab an hour here and there and mostly tend to fly around. By the time I've taken off (Aerobatics server), flown out to do carrier landings and take offs at both carriers and returned to base that's pretty much the hour gone :)
