Training Thursday – Summertime Extravaganza!
June 27 @ 19:30 - 22:30
Everyone’s welcome to this training!
Training Mission: CA Random WX
Time: 0745
Weather: OVC 6200′ Ceiling, 050/12, 29.72
Authentication:
RAMROD: GRANDSLICE
As per Authentication SOP
Planned Training:
1. All Fixed Wing
Summary:
Practice basic mission and ATC procedures. Practice time on target strike.
Execution:
* Pilots will form 2-ships executing basic strikes against armored vehicles (BMP-2) at known locations.
* Flights will be assigned one line in the target matrix, specifying things like takeoff time, TOT and so on.
* Light strike loadout, for instance 1 x XT, 2 x Mk82, Tpod, 2 x 9X or similar. Flight leads are free to decide the details.
* Target WP needs to be manually programmed. Hold WP is already set to WP3.
* Flights will take off, enter the hold, push and strike at the correct time, then turn left southbound and return to Kutaisi via Lanchkuti Transition.
Remarks:
* There will be no threat, except from the BMP-2 guns.
* Focus on accurate and precise flying and communication. Getting all the basics nicely executed (airport comms, formation, check-in with accurate bullseye call, nice overhead break etc).
Evaluation:
We will collectively gather points, obviously aiming for a score as high as possible.
* Each flight managing good comms and flying until Exit N – 3 points
* Each flight checkin in correctly, including bullseye call – 3 points
* Each aircraft hitting target within +/- 10 seconds of TOT – 3 points
* Each aircraft hitting target within +/- 20 seconds of TOT – 2 points
* Each aircraft hitting target within +/- 30 seconds of TOT – 1 points
* Each aircraft performing a somewhat clean OHB – 1 point
As a side-competition, we will also see which aircraft type provides the highest (average, maybe?) score. 🙂
