Where is the manual?

I see manuals in PDF format for the A-10 and F-16 in the downloads/documentation section on this site, but I do not see one for the FA-18C. I know there are plenty of guides on YouTube to get a newbie like me up and running with the Hornet, but I'd still like a printable manual. I am not at my home PC now, so perhaps a manual was downloaded to my PC along with the purchased aircraft.

The manual is included in each module. You can find it in your DCS folder under DCS World/mods/aircraft/Hornet/doc or something like that. For the Hornet it's just an Early Access Guide, as the full manual is not yet available.

 

It's great to see someone who wants to learn by reading the manual instead of just watching videos or playing tutorials. The manual is the best way to learn a new aircraft IMHO :thumbup:

The early access WIP guide is found here

 

• "DCS World\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Doc\DCS FA-18C Early Access Guide EN.pdf"

 

There are versions for CH DE EN FR KO and RU

 

Chuck's "F/A-18C Hornet Guide" is also recommend and often more up to date.

I believe this depents on the language your DCS is running,

 

Run it in german and if you want everything in english just change the sim language.

 

I did it too, because so many tutorials are in english,

 

P.S. it`s good for the brain :D:D:D

Bonzo is talking about the downloadable manuals on the website, not the ones that get installed with DCS. In your DCS installation you always have all manuals in all available languages, regardless of the language of your DCS installation.

That is correct for the F-18 manual. I just yesterday switched my DCS to English and I have all the manuals in all possible languages. However, the German DCS User Manual has simply vanished. Well, that doesn't matter, it's out of date anyway. (Steam version btw.)

It vanished from your installation? Hmm, maybe it's not included in the current DCS version. Or maybe it's a steam thing :dunno:
