Indian air force projects
Posted: 03 Apr 2009, 00:06
I am starting this thread with the express hope that it may be used for sharing flightplans, afcads, textures and/or models and scenery pertaining to the Indian sub-continent. My vision is simple: if there is enough interest, this will act as a sort of "one-stop-shop", making it easier to locate all current material resources for those of us wishing to cobble together something to populate our Indian FS skies - a stop-gap perhaps, while we await a more comprehensive endeavour from the MAIW team (to whom I doff my cap...). And all this under an appropriate subject heading!
To get the ball rolling, here's some Indian Air Force fighter/attack aircraft flightplans.
This is an attempt to represent all Su-30, MiG-29, Jaguar, MiG-27/23, Mirage 2000 and MiG-21 squadrons based throughout India. But I cannot vouch for the accuracy - all info has been researched from the web. The flightplans do not include training squadrons, and I overlooked the MiG-25 Foxbats.
Flightplans were generated with RPP_FPGen, then edited in AITMv2. To simulate low level sorties some flightplans contain legs with what may seem like an erroniously low flightlevel. This is by design, however, because the fs ai engine will ensure minimum ground clearance. Flightplans are also set as VFR to slightly minimise interaction with ATC, on what is after all a civil aviation comms radio band. Note that flightplans will automatically assume IFR status where necessary. Most flights remain in Indian airspace, with the odd visit further afield.
You will need Ttools to compile the following files into a flightplan. You will also need to edit the Aircraft_... file so the entries match the aircraft.cfg entries for the ai models you wish to use in your setup.
Something you don't like? Please correct it and post it back here. Eventually we may end up with our own high standard comprehensive package (I live in hope)!
