Scarecrow Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 I've often noticed my CDU displaying Mark Z info and now that it has a TAD symbol it got me wondering why does it do this, what is triggering it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mud Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Mark Z is a weapon event mark. So where you fire your gun or drop a bomb, this will become Mark Z automatically. 1 Spoiler W10-x64 | Z390 Gigabyte Aorus Ultra | Core i7 9700K @ 4.8Ghz | Noctua NH-D15 Corsair 32Gb 3200 | MSI RTX 3080ti Gaming X Asus Xonar AE | TM Hotas Warthog MFG Crosswind pedals | Valve Index Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKR75 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Mark Z is a mark point that gets created automatically every time a weapon (from your aircraft of course) gets fired. It represents the impact point of said weapon. This mark point gets "overwritten" by each subsequent weapon firing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miguelaco Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Little OT, but since 1.1.0.9, last markpoint is displayed in TAD along usual waypoints when in FLT PLAN mode and MISSION. Very handy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miguelaco Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Negative. You can have two added symbols on TAD since 1.1.0.9. Mark Z symbol (white triangle) and last markpoint (square as usual). Dunno what happens when mark Z is also the last markpoint. Still got to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joni Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 i thought you needed to activate Mark mode on the UFC.

Firehead Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 The "mark" setting will allow you to use Z-mark as a steer point, in addition to any other points that you set using TMS Right (short). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFunk1606688187 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 My likely fallible recollection is that Mark Z is skipped by the CDU when its moving through the alphabet as you create mark points manually. Warning: Nothing I say is automatically correct, even if I think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
