Hey guys

Iv been looking around at your vids and documents and other bits, i was just wondering, how do you guys conduct CAS?

Who acts as your JTAC?

At the moment, only one of our members, Stuka, is rated as a Controller, primarily acting as a FAC(A). Most of our missions, in fact, aren't CAS, they're BAI.

Because I love them, here's a couple of video snippets of past CAS missions from Eddie's cockpit cam (Twitch). Definitely interested in doing more of this.

That's cool

I am also a qualified controller, Ex British JTAC/TACP, also working in a company who train pilots and ground units in CAS.

So i think i can defiantly help you guys out with some training if you are up for it, i will happily play a ground callsign

[Dojo]

You should definitely PM our command members to discuss (Stuka, Snoopy, Eddie). It's an interesting prospect for sure!

We're interested and it's something we've talked about in the past but it also would be a side project, likely would have to be a full member first.

that would be epic

Im more than happy to help out and teach you guys procedures for CAS, i have access to the US Airforce Unrestricted CAS documentation, which is used to teach all aspects of CAS.

Id be happy to play a ground unit.

I understand id have to be a full member and i am happy to wait my turn, and as long as i can use the jet haha

Have i plenty of scenarios that iv made for my simulator at work that we use for training, im in the middle of trying to transfer them into DCS.

Thanks for the interest guys
