1 SITUATION
1.1 Overview
August, 1979.
Germany is organizing a defense exercise named Cautious Guard. Büchel Air Base has been chosen to host fighter squadrons. The exercise is focused on low-level strike operations. Norwegian and French squadrons have been invited and will take part.
Daily exercises are to be flown. Initially, they will be single-route operations, but as the missions progress, more advanced multi-route and time-on-target operations take over.
The Norwegians are from Rygge Air Station, Sq. 336 flying F-5 Freedom Fighters,
France is providing a few F1s. And joining from Hopsten is the 72nd Jagdgeschwader with their F-4s.
1.2 Area of operations
Central and south Hessen, limited by Hockenheim in the south, Geibelstadt and Fritzlar in the east, and RAF Gütersloh in the north. It consists of varying countryside and is populated by smaller towns. Frankfurt is the only large city located in the AO.
1.3 Time and weather
* Light haze, good ceiling.
* Winds from the east.
* QNH 1021hpa / 30.16inhg
* Target QFE 984hpa / 29.06inhg
1.4 Air threat
None
1.5 Ground/Surface threat
None
1.6 Friendly forces
Apart from our operation, the RAF will operate in the area with C-130s.
1.7 Civilian/3rd part
Beware of civilian air traffic outside the AO. Frankfurt has heavy commercial traffic and expect GA activity outside our corridors and airspaces.
2 MISSION
The opening exercise will be a visual, low-level navigation with high-drag bombing.
All groups will fly the same route, separated by 3 minutes.
The target is a bridge in central Hessen. The route will take you around the target in a left-hand pattern, and the attack direction will be from the north.
3 EXECUTION
3.1 Commander’s intent
The intent is for all flights to hit all waypoints within +/- 1 minute and, of course, have bombs on target.
If this can be achieved without climbing to locate one’s position, the exercise will be a success.

Frågor i Discord
–
1, Vad är max höjd efter Hold? (I navigerigen)
Svar: Upp till flight lead, har med flit bara skrivit low level så får FL göra en egen bedömning.
Men ser gärna att vi alla fall håller oss under 500ft AGL.
2, koordinater för WPs, eller visuell navigering?
Svar: Visuell nav den här gången. Hoppas avancera upplägget framöver och då vrider vi igång boxarna.
Det är svårnavigerad terräng så en del av briefen kommer gå ut på tips och trix för framgång

1 SITUATION
1.1 Overview
Day TWO of the Syrian Dawn campaign.
2nd Marine Division landed on the beaches south of Tartus on D+1 and have managed to advance approximately 10 nm inland, capturing objective ORLANDO with little resistance. Now in the early hours of D+2, recon units advancing along the valley and the M1 Highway towards Homs were suddenly engaged by concentrated fire from artillery, mortars and tanks. It seems the enemy has chosen this chokepoint to make their stand. We need to punch through the defending forces and capture objective WACO as soon as possible in order to maneuvre more freely inland. Marine aviation is tasked with providing CAS to their fellow riflemen. USAF will provide support if able.
1.2 Area of operations
Western Syria, between Tartus and Homs, centered on grid square BU44
1.3 Time and weather
* May 12 – 2010
* 06:00 local time (just after sunrise)
* SCT 8/9
* Wind from 305 / 2
* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013
1.4 Air threats
None
Syrian Air Force has not sortied during the last 24 hrs and is not expected to interfere with this mission
1.5 Ground threats
BMP-1, T-72, ZSU-23 Shilka, MANPADS, SA-8, SA-9, (SA-6 in Hama, 30 nm NE of our AO)
The enemy has prepared defensive positions between OBJ ORLANDO and OBJ WACO.
1.6 Friendly forces
N/A, we are the only blue forces in the AO.
1.7 Civilian/3rd part
N/A
2 MISSION
2nd Marine Recon unit ALPHA 1 will advance east from OBJ ORLANDO towards OBJ WACO with the intention of drawing enemy fire to reveal their positions. Marine Fixed-Wing Aviation will provide support. USAF resources will also be allocated as they become available.
No formal JTACs are present in these units so E-CAS procedures will be implemented.
3 EXECUTION
3.1 Commander’s intent
Fixed-wing flights will be assigned HOLD points and altitude blocks by STINGRAY and given a frequency to communicate with relevant ground assets who will assign targets as they appear on the battlefield.
3.2 Packages
N/A

3.3 Order of events
All flights depart ASAP.
Rotary Wing proceed at own discretion.
Fixed Wing expect to be sent to HOLD or tanker, depending on target availability.

1 SITUATION
1.1 Overview
Day TWO of the Syrian Dawn campaign.
2nd Marine Recon once again encountered heavy resistance west of OBJ WACO. We estimate the enemy took 50% losses from our air attacks but SIGINT indicates they are calling up reinforcements from Homs. We will need to make another concentrated push on WACO and hit the reinforcements before they arrive.
1.2 Area of operations
Western Syria, between Tartus and Homs, centered on grid square BU44
1.3 Time and weather
* May 12 – 2010
* 11:00 local time
* SCT 8/9, temp 24C
* Wind from 305 / 2

1.4 Air threats
None
Syrian Air Force has not sortied during the last 24 hrs and is not expected to interfere with this mission
1.5 Ground threats
BMP-1, T-72, ZSU-23 Shilka, MANPADS, SA-8 (few left), SA-9, (SA-6 in Hama, 30 nm NE of our AO)
The enemy has prepared defensive positions between OBJ ORLANDO and OBJ WACO.
1.6 Friendly forces
N/A, we are the only blue forces in the AO.
1.7 Civilian/3rd part
Some civilian vehicles have been observed eastbound on Highway M1. Presumably evacuating to Homs.
2 MISSION
2nd Marine Recon ALPHA 1 will advance to contact along AOA SOUTH, taking advantage of villages already cleared of opposition. Main resistance expected to still be around BU4544. RAGE9 in close support. HAWG81 serving as A-FAC over this area, calling in fixed wing assets as needed.
2nd Marine Recon BRAVO 1 will advance to contact along AOA NORTH, attempting to swing around to reach OBJ WACO from the north. BLACKJACK4 in close support. Fixed wing assets called in as needed.
No formal JTACs are present in these units so E-CAS procedures will be implemented.
3 EXECUTION
3.1 Commander’s intent
Hornets will focus on taking out enemy reinforcements from Homs.
Harriers and Vipers will provide E-CAS
Rotary wing units will provide direct support to friendly ground units

Background:
In a fictional campaign during WW2 allied forces have recently established small bases on Guam and Rota.

Situation:
A depot with enemy armor has been located on the north part of Tinian. Attack the depot and hunt down any vehicles trying to escape. Expect enemy fighters scrambling from Saipan. Look out for any red/black painted aircraft, they belong to the “Black Dragons” unit.

Finally Navy Air has joined the fray, and a Marine F4U detachment has also arrived at Rota airbase! All units join up south of Aguijan, bring light A/G loadouts.

I brist på propeller-aktivitet så håller jag i lite mysflygning på Guam inför torsdagens uppdrag. Syftet är att ha en möjlighet att orientera sig runt FARPer, testa moddarna, eller bara hänga. Kommer självklart gå att öva på respektive vapensystem samt flyga cargo i form av sling load mellan de olika grupperingarna.
Vi kör på secondary och uppdraget startas kl 18.30 enligt önskemål. Planerar inte hålla i någon breifing.

Master Meet - Juli 2025
2025-07-05
!OBS! Max deltagarantal uppnått och dag för sista anmälan har passerat, ytterligare anmälningar kommer placeras som reserver.

Tid: 5 Juli 2025 (Sista anmälan: 5 Juni 2025)
Aktivitet: Träff
Karta: Skaraborg
Kläder: Shorts, valfri längd.
Hej på er!
Med stort nöje kan Knugen och jag presentera att vi på första lördagen i juli arragerar ett Master Meet på Ålleberg!
Ålleberg är ett platåberg beläget ett stenkast sydost om Falköping. På berget anlade den Kungliga Svenska Aeroklubben Sveriges första (och enda?) nationella segelflygskola på tidigt 40-tal. Sedan dess har det kryllat med flyg i trakten och berget har blivit hjärtat i svenskt segelflyg. Utöver flygskolan finns idag också ett flygande segelflygsmuseum och en resturang med läcker utsikt.
Vi erbjuder en fin dag med flygmaskiner, föreläsning, gött käk och trevligt sällskap. Ett par av er får gärna ta bilen så vi kan erbjuda hjälp de som eventuellt anläder via tåg till Falköping. Sen går det självklart bra att flyga till Ålleberg, det är ju trots allt ett flygfält!
Se discord för detaljer. Eller skicka DM till Fille.
