ACLS is giving headache...

Hi Guys,

just did a video with my take on the ACLS and auto throttle,

Hope this is of use,

Rich

Ps, I actually use the ILS needles on the HUD and the AWL on the VDI, just to help out a little. Not operationally correct, but hey, we're all learning :-)

Rich, really nicely done on the basics to get the ACLS working. The other manual one could reference is the CV NATOPS, which includes the night/IMC carrier approach, called the CV-1. The Kitty actually should be set to a 3.5* glide path, but the math is the same.

Thanks Victory103, I'll have a look at CV-1 :-)

I have to say, I'm really enjoying going back to my roots of naval aviation (albeit in helicopters) and I just can't leave the Tomcat alone. I'm just amazed how much information I used to retain in my head when I look at the NATOPS manuals.

Maybe it's just an age thing.

All I need to do now is to get TacPack and to go online,

Rich

Hi Rich,

First, thanks for the videos. they are a great tool.

Do you know if ACLS works on other Aircraft Carriers or is it just on the Kitty Hawk associated with this F-14?

Thanks a lot,

Johan
