Test flight with VF-32

this week I have flown the first of many missions that will test my campaign. Since the campaign only covers 15 days (= max 15 mission) i can easily test one campaign session during the course of 3 days . The first missions always start on the ground, but after mission 4 or 5 I start near the target to speed up testing.

The first testrun was with VF-32 flying the F-14 Tomcat. Below is a list of mission flown.

Mission 1: fighter sweep: noticed some Mirage 5's without weapons
Mission 2: intercept - nothing special

Friendly F-18 in need for an escort

Mission3: CAP - noticed another flight of F-14's without weapons
Mission 4: intercept - nothing special

Twist and Turn

Mission 5: escort
Mission 6 intercept - intercepts never occur near the carrier, always near ground stations.
Mission 7: escort: this mission took me to the far edge of the terrain and I witnesses some fighters hovering in mid air, I'll have to check that some targets are not too close to the edge of the map.

Low ceiling fight

mission 8: CAP - suddenly I got resupplied! I'll have to check the campaign settings to ommit the resupplies.
mission 9: sweep
mission 10: cap

One enemy less

mission 11: sweep - the Mig-23's at the airfield had no weapons, I'll have to check that out too
Mission 12: escort
Mission 13: sweep - the campaign ended in a cease fire, the end image and end text still refers to the wrong country. I'll need to fix that too.

You only need one maverick

This first test campaign resulted in a small checklist::
check aircraft loadouts
Fix Target location
rewrite endscreens

The next test campaign will be with a dedicated strike aircraft to check the ground parts of the campaign.

PS in one picture you can see where the campaign will take place.

Happy Flying
