Hippo Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Come on, who's going to be the first to replicate this manoeuvre in DCS? https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/world/roger-and-out-pilots-leave-phallic-symbol-in-the-sky-5zkp5hqkv Pretty impressive flying by those involved, imho.

Shadoga Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Contrails don’t persist long enough in DCS to pull this off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
METEOP Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 If I remember correctly it was done by a drone, not possible to do this with human control...

Cunctator Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Skywriting with much more complex shapes is practiced since the 1920s. No drones needed for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
METEOP Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I looked it up again and you are right, it was made by a Growler EA-18G using digitally-mapped flight. So not a drone but not stick flying either it seems.

METEOP Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Why do you think a U and a 8 are too complicated to be flown by a human :megalol::helpsmilie: Of course anybody can do that, just not as geometrically perfect as the pictures showed. Then again you maybe right I am probably projecting my own ineptitude.

METEOP Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Keks not by a human but quite probably by a Canadian..LOL.. BTW here in Quebec we consider ourselves 'Quebecers' so do feel free to laugh at canadians if that makes you feel big.
