Military Refuelers Package???

Post by Madjack59 »

Is there anyone interested in putting together a Refuelers package that would include KC135 & KC10 that have a VOR system enabled within the donor aircraft? I've been using the currently available packages to find gas stations; however, they are very difficult to find unless you have a radar-enabled plane. I have some tracks in mind, but am looking for someone with development experience to tie it all together with existing AI aircraft and configuring them to publish a VOR freq.

I was able to ride jump seat in a C17 during mid-air refuel over Canada, so I was able to get a bunch of good info about ARF practices currently in use, which may be useful in the package.

Thanks,

That sounds very ambitious to me, but if anyone can do it it's the people who frequent this forum. I look forward to the finished product.

The only way I know of and use is with the VRS Super Hornet. There is a AI KC-135 with drogue/boom (actually a flyable model) that one can assign a air-to-air TACAN to via the ACM system from VRS. The package contains basic flight plans over CA. There is no way outside of using the VRS I know of to do this in FS9. If you using FSX, there is a refuel gauge out that will allow you to refuel from any AI, even a C-172!
