===PRI===
+
The [[Intro Flight]] is a newcomer's first familiarization flight. Its purpose is mainly to make sure all technical things work, make the newcomer feel welcome, go through some radio stuff and have some fun. It's not that important to learn any particular skills during the flight. That can come later. However, during this flight, the following topics are briefly covered.
  
−
This is the default comms plan for missions.
+
* Cold start
−
+
* Changing radio presets
−
''Mission specific channels'' (9 through 13) are used to fit the scenario of a mission. These may include additional tankers, airport towers & ground, specific tasking channels, JTAC etc. If used for a mission, the table will be updated with said channels' functions in the mission forum thread.

* Joker/Bingo Settings

* Basic Radar Usage and Fox 3 Launch
 +
* "Fox" and "Splash" Calls
 +
* Dropping Dumb Bombs
 +
* Straight-in Landing or Overhead Break depending on newcomer's preference
  
−
These common channels are called the PRI (primary) channels. They are used on Com1 (i.e the left radio in the Hornet).

===AUX===
+
* Cold Start using Quickstart Checklist
  
−
The AUX frequencies are used by flights for intraflight comms. These are ''not'' presets. You have to manually tune your AUX radio to the correct frequency. The frequencies start at 130.10 and increases by .10 for each flight, corresponding to that flight's number.
+
===Basic Navigation===
  
−
Com2 (i.e the right radio in the Hornet) is used for this. As a flight lead, you may instead opt to use Teamspeak for intraflight comms. (If you do, the recommendation is to use TS ''instead'' of the AUX radio, not using TS as third radio)
+
* Navigate visually between two points using the compass and an empty F10 map

* Waypoint Navigation
 +
* TACAN Navigation

* Using HSD with data-link to find wingman
 +
* Course Line

==Common Radio Procedures==
+
* Takeoff with proper procedure. [https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3313564/ Correctly choosing between mil power or max AB, rotate 10 degrees at correct rotation speed calculated beforehand].
  
−
===Check-ins===
+
===Landing===
  
−
When a flight switches its PRI channel, they should "check in". This is done by having the leader say "[Flight name and number], check in!". The wingmen then simply replies (on the channel they are entering) with their numbers in the flight.
+
* Managing AoA
 +
** Level Flight: Pick an altitude, gear down and place flight vector in top of AoA bracket, maintaining altitude
 +
** Turning: Perform ~30 degree bank turns maintaining altitude
 +
** Careful climbing and descending (around 500 feet/minute)
 +
* Landing
 +
** Be "on-speed" (=flight vector in top of AoA bracket (10.5 degrees))
 +
** Extend speed brake
 +
** 2.5 degree glideslope
 +
** Idle and flare at runway threshold
 +
** Maintain 12 degree nose up (over horizon), aerobrake until 100 kts
 +
* Overhead break [[Media:Viper_Educationals_-_Overhead_Break_Singleship.zip.acmi|Tacview]]
 +
** Approach in runway direction, course line set to runway magnetic heading
 +
** 300 knots, 1500'
 +
** Break over runway, 2-2.5 G, keep ''same throttle'' as on 300 knots approach
 +
** After break turn, on downwind at 230-250 kts: Gear down, extend airbrake
 +
** When you see runway threshold 45 degrees over your shoulder, turn final and descend
 +
** Land as explained above

−
''(Enfield1, flight of four Hornets, checks in on Package channel)''
 
−
Enfield11: "Enfield1, check in!"
 
−
Enfield12: "Two!"
 
−
Enfield13: "Three!"
 
−
Enfield14: "Four!"
 
  
−
===Contacting controlling agency===
+
==Basic Combat==
  
−
After a flight has checked in for the first time, it is common (and in the case of the Package channel, mandatory) to contact the controlling agency on that channel. The most common situation is that a flight has checked in on the package channel and contacts AWACS. Let the controlling agency know your airframe count, your position and any other relevant information (for instance fuel state on lowest flight member, tasking, any technical issues and so on). If some of these things should already be known by the controlling agency (because they are pre-briefed) and they haven't changed, you don't need to mention them, but instead state "as fragged".
+
===Basic Air-To-Air===
  
−
Example:
+
* RWS Radar Mode
−
''(Enfield1, flight of four Hornets on CAP tasking, has just checked in and now contacts AWACS "Focus" on Package channel)''
+
** Setting Range, Width, Bars and Elevation
−
Enfield11: "Focus, Enfield1, marking bullseye 270 for 35 at angels 28, lowest state 10.8, as fragged!"
+
** TMS up for SAM soft lock, TMS up again for STT hard lock
−
Focus: "Enfield1, Focus, radar contact, continue as fragged. Good hunting!"
+
* Boresight acquisition (Dogfight mode, TMS up)
 +
* Fire AIM-120C Amraam (~10-20 NM)
 +
* Fire AIM-9X Sidewinder (~2-4 NM)
  
−
===Authentication===
+
===Basic Air-To-Ground===
  
−
This is not always used, but sometimes a controlling agency may ask a flight (or vice-versa) to authenticate themselves to prove that they are friendly. When this happens, we're using a system called "RAMROD". It works by having a certain phrase communicated to all parties in the briefing. The phrase is then used as a key to be able to correctly reply to the querying instance's authentication request. The query consists of two letters from the phrase, with exactly one letter between them. The letter in between is the correct answer. Not that the phrase is assumed to "wrap around", meaning the first letter in the phrase is located between the last and the second letter.
+
* General Purpose Dumb Bombs (Mk 82, Mk 84)
 +
** Configuration (ripple, single/pair and interval settings)
 +
** Standard CCIP drop (Start from 8000', roll in, ~30 degree dive angle, 400-500 kts, drop at ~4000' and pull up) Examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVuLCGKKqvI
 +
** ''(Over-ambitious extra: Read up on "Z Diagrams" and "The Bomb Triangle" https://www.cnatra.navy.mil/local/docs/pat-pubs/P-1209.pdf)
 +
* Gun strafing (Start from 8000', roll in, ~30 degree dive angle, 400-500 kts, fire short burst at ~3000' and pull up) Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdaBRMG5yN4
  
−
Example 1:
+
===Basic Defense===
−
''(Focus asks Enfield1 for authentication. The prebriefed RAMROD key is "MONKEYSPIT")''
 
−
Focus: "Enfield1, authenticate <span style="color: red">October Kilo</span>!"
 
−
Enfield11: "Focus, Enfield1 authenticates <span style="color: green">November</span>."
 
−
Focus: "Enfield1, approved."
 
  
−
M<span style="color: red">O</span><span style="color: green">N</span><span style="color: red">K</span>EYSPIT
+
* Basic setup countermeasures panel
 +
* Drop Flares and Chaff in countermeasures BYP mode
 +
* Basic RWR usage (On/Off, Open/Priority mode)
 +
* Evade enemy missile by putting it on your 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock (Evaluate in TacView)
