    Ground Crew

    I really enjoy watching videos when the ground crew interact with pilots upon start-up and shutdown. Does the 476th use this technique at any point during training or after? Is there any chance ED is planning a patch that has the ground crew walking around the plane during start-up and shutdown? If anyone has any info about what the ground crew discuss with the pilots, please discuss a little about it. Just thought that would add a lot more realism to the sim. Thanks.

    Appendix A and B of our checklist is what crew chiefs accomplish with pilots real world. We don't simulate that and I wouldn't expect ED to include it since they feel the A-10C is feature complete.

    That being said no one has asked but I'd walk through a launch how we do it real world.
