Låghöjdsnavigering
Upplägg
Vi kör en info-kväll på Discord och snackar igenom låghöjdsnavigering (“old school”, d.v.s. karta, kompass och klocka. TACAN, GPS, etc. göre sig icke besvär) i DCS. På torsdagen (9:e april) följer vi upp med att omsätta lärdomarna så gott vi kan i praktiken genom att alla som är intresserade får planera sin egen låghöjdsnavigering. De som ej kan/vill delta på torsdagen är fortfarande välkomna på tisdagen under förutsättningen att de via PostNord skickar två ostbågar per person till Apollo.
Vem som helst (MA-rookie till gammal i gemet) som har något att bidra med uppmanas å det starkaste att registrera sig för att ge ett eget föredrag av valfri längd och material. Föredrag hålls lämpligast via skärmdelning. Uppge självuppskattad förmåga enligt kategorierna som återfinns i lineup så att intresserade speakers kan schemaläggas utefter förmåga (ju bättre koll på ämnet, ju tidigare på listan placeras man). Små diskussionspauser hålls mellan varje speaker, samt att kvällen avslutas med allmän diskussion.
Exakt vad för aspekter (t.ex. Time on Target, kartläsning, hur man bäst planerar rutter, hitta tillbaka när man åkt vilse, etc.) man vill prata om är helt upp till varje speaker, likaså vilket material man vill använda (rimligtvis ingenting vars spridning utgör spionage). Vill man som speaker få något material publicerat i event-sidan här för att medlemmar ska kunna ta del av det i förväg, kontakta Tony.
CombatFlite är nuförtiden freeware, och rekommenderas för både tisdagen och framförallt torsdagen.

1 SITUATION
1.1 Overview
This is a low level navigation training mission. Individual aircrew will plan a route to the target (Batumi airbase) and back to base (Kutaisi).
Each individual aircrew will be assigned a specific target at Batumi airbase.
Due to mission organiser’s need to be able to deconflict planned routes by adjusting start times, each individual aircrew will plan their routes based upon being compatible with a “Rolex time” to be determined, as opposed to upon a specific time. E.g. “Dusty 4-2 will hit WP3 at Rolex +15”, not “Dusty 4-2 will hit WP3 at 08:15 local time”.
1.2 Area of operations
W and SW of Kutaisi, SW and NE of Batumi. The ground is mostly flat desert.
