But ended up going 350 kts as well cuz i was getting too impatient to do my break lol

As Lex Talionis mentioned in his video, there are no set speeds. It's unit SOP or lead dependent.


@Kola360,

What is that chart in? Photoshop? Visio? If it's an editable format, would you mind uploading it in native format?

Ah, I can see in your Sources, that you've implemented Lex's Carrier Case 1 presentation....very good !!!

I've done a simple formula for myself (hand written), but your approach is extraordinaire, appreciate it a lot


Thank you so much for sharing this with us; you've saved me a lot of time




All the best.

Just finished version 5, this one should be more accurate and easier to understand.


Ive also created a decluttered version here.

How to enter the stack?
It has to be in the two specified routines?


What does spin pattern mean?
2 past bow.I don't get it.


Also What does Strike mean?

Thank you

AFAIK Stack can be joined from any direction, but in the way in which the arrows show. (Imagine putting arrows all along the entire circle)

Spin pattern is the pink circle and is only flown in case of a full pattern, I.e if two planes are in front of the ship and heading for the abeam the pattern is full.

I have not found a clear definition for Strike, but i would guess Strike helps Red Crown with protecting airspace and doing IFF Checks.

So when the pattern is not full,the planes in spin pattern have higher priority to heading to initial?
Then they descend to 800 and meet position 1 at 800 feet?

[Kola360]

yes, however the spin does not go to initial it goes directly to the break and into the pattern. Position 1 is in the stack and at 2000 ft minimum, while spin is at 1200 ft and inital - break is at 800 ft.

Stack entry can be from 1,3,4 positions, but not 2 cause it would require you to cross the bow of the ship where planes are possibly launching into. So typically you want to enter at 1,3,4

Thanks for the updated chart man!

Case I/II departures are kept to 500ft until 10mn (I think it is), so this isn't an issue.
