The goal should be to fly the F-14 as a crew (Pilot/RIO) to reach its full potential. However, In order to train effectively on your own, you as a pilot/RIO must be able to use Iceman/Jester. Therefore you should be able to complete everything described in the Pilot/RIO "Basic Section" below with Iceman/Jester. During Qualification your examiner will fly with you as Pilot/RIO.
Innehåll
Pilot
Basic Section
Radio/SRS
- Set Transponder code (SRS)
- Transmit/Receive on Itercom (PTT)
- Power ON/OFF and transmit/receive in both MNL/PRESET MODE using:
- Radio 1 UHF (SRS)
- Radio 2 VHF (SRS)
- Basic Comms as part of a flight (not as lead)
- Tune ATIS-freq. Listen to and understand ATIS Information.
Basic Flying

Takeoff
- Setup aircraft for takeoff
- Takeoff-procedures
In-flight
- Standard Climb (Military Power, use pitch to maintain 5 units of AoA)
- Economy Cruise (adjust throttle for 8.5 units of AoA)
- Navigation
- - Visually navigate between two points using for example terrain objects as guidence (the compass and an empty F10 map may be used)
- - Follow several waypoints in succession (flightplan) using information provided by the in-cockpit instruments or projected on HUD/HSD.
- - Navigate To/From or in reference to a TACAN using (Radials) and the courseline on HSD
- Autopilot
- - Engage Attitude hold.
- - Engage Altitude hold.
- Fuel quantity indicator:

- On-speed Flying
- - Level Flight (Pick an altitude, dirty up and go on-speed maintaining altitude)
- - Turning (Perform ~30 degree bank turns maintaining altitude)
- - Careful climbing and descending (around 500 feet/minute)
- - Quickly going from ordinary flight (around 350 kts IAS) to on-speed flying.
Landing
- Landing (~500-700 feet/minute, no flare)
- - After touchdown apply back stick for aerobraking and steer the aircraft with stick instead of rudder
- Overhead break (Approach in runway direction, 300 kts IAS, 1500'. Break over runway (Throttle -> IDLE, Airbrake -> OUT, G≈1% of IAS), enter downwind, get "on speed" and land as explained above) http://wiki.masterarms.se/index.php/Fil:OverheadBreak.png
- Traffic Pattern Touch'n'Go Practice (maintain on-speed, climb to 1500', turn downwind to end up ~1.5 NM from course line, turn final and descend when wingtip passes runway threshold)
Basic Combat

Basic Air-To-Ground
- Gun
- Obtain rounds on static target
- Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdaBRMG5yN4 (Start from 8000', roll in, ~30 degree dive angle, 400-500 kts, fire short burst at ~3000' and pull up)
- Unguided bombs
- Low drag
- - Release in Computer Pilot mode.
- - Hit static area-target
- Examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVuLCGKKqvI (Start from 8000', roll in, ~30 degree dive angle, 400-500 kts, drop at ~4000' and pull up)
Basic Defence
- Reading the RWR (Further from center means more danger)
- Deploy flares
- Evade enemy missile by putting it on your 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock (Evaluate in TacView)
Advanced Section

- Use radio menu to contact correct tanker
- Locate and form up on tanker's left wing (echelon left formation)
- Hooking up and receiving fuel, straight and through turns
- Moving to right side after refueling (echelon right formation)
Carrier Ops
- Learn CASE 1 Recovery
- Jabbers Youtube Video, explaining how to fly a CASE 1 Recovery.
