Phantom_Mark Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Is it my imagination or do the Hornet engines smoke like crazy recently ?? Levels of engine smoke I am seeing currently are something I would only recently I have only previously seen on aircraft like the Mig29 and similar ?

razo+r Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 You're not imagining things, that's actually a thing in DCS currently. I hope they'll fix it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom_Mark Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 It seems me engine performance at 20+k angels is lesser these days in general as well, but I am going to compare that against stable before I go spouting those stories as fact ?

Mandellorian Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 It seems to be random, i was flying at 22k about 95% looked back over my shoulder at my wingman and noticed i was leaving a thick black trail behind me..didn`t touch the throttle and it cut out a few seconds later.

Raisuli Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Yeah. Boeing ran out of F404s and started installing RD-33s on some of those hornets, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
