F-84e 008 - Bomber Escort " Your flight of four Thunderjets is to escort four F-51 Mustangs tasked with bombing a North Korean Army Camp East of Uijungbu, and as you take-off, you'll see them already leaving the field ahead of you. The difficulty here is to keep pace with the Mustangs, and not lose them. They are much slower aircraft than the Thunderjet, so you will have to throttle back and trim up to maintain a speed of around 270 Kts or lower. It is also a very bad idea to "press X" and warp to the next Waypoint, despite the constant reminders from the obligatory blue Microsoft message. If you warp, you will most certainly lose track of the Mustangs. You arrive at the target area just after Waypoint 2, and from your high perch at 10,000' you should get a good view of the Mustangs blowing up the camp. They may not get everything on the first pass, but do not be tempted to help them out just yet. As the F-51s circle round for a second run, you will spot a flight of four low-flying MiG-15s diverting to the area, and your job is to terminate them before they get to the Mustangs. If the MiG-15s prove difficult, and the fight drags on, you'll be rescued by a flight of four Sabre Jets flying North on Combat Air Patrol. However, with so many aircraft flying around, your major problem now becomes the risk of a mid-air collision. Once the MiGs are dead, you may like to expend any remaining ordnance on whatever is left of the Army Camp. With all targets destroyed, you may complete your waypoint path and land. If you intend to land, note that your last waypoint is 4: "Contact Tower". On reaching this point, you may be advised to call up your ADF (Shift+5), and tune in Kimpo: 93 - this will aid you to get the correct line-up for the runway. The strip runs 143 degrees/323 degrees, and you may land from either end. Once you have successfully landed and set your park brake, you must then press X to end the mission. Alternatively, you may wish to press X repeatedly in order to warp through the waypoints and end the mission without landing. " |
