Im in for 11(F) sqn, RIO but can be pilot if needed.
Also reminder to all to check your SRS settings before the mission. Since the latest update I have had to redesignate my speakers and optional min settings on the "General" Tab.

Re: Tuesday 5th May 2020
Matt, I don't think that I will have time to re-do the mission for tonight. There are 6 AV-8Bs at present. If you wish, you may download the mission Op Northern Clout 2.2lb.miz, and add a couple of extra Harriers.
They won't have a route to Maykop, unless you can transfer 4 of them to the F-16 route; both Harrier and F-16 operate from the same base, so it should not be too difficult. Problem is going to be the timing and whether they have the fuel for the round trip.
However, without the Maykop Migs being hit, it is going to be hairy over the target area for the A-10Cs.
I don't know why we bother preparing sorties in advance. But as Karr said "Plus ca change - plus la meme chose" - I think he must have been aircrew.

Alan, the only version I can see in dropbox has ship starts, having tried carrier ops this week there are still real issues in regards to deck sliding at present (so I feel the land based version is probably best option), I will make the changed to the land based one if you can stick it on either the here or dropbox for me please buddy.
thanks
Matt.
thanks

Re: Tuesday 5th May 2020
Sorry Matt, I did update it earlier, but it seems to have disappeared.
I've just re-uploaded it.
Probably not going to be flying this evening - I cannot get the previous version of SRS.
I have to say, this outfit is going to the dogs, and I am rapidly losing patience. Everything is changed by all and sundry without any notification. I'm getting too old for this.

If you scroll down past the latest version, it lists all the older versions. Look for the small grey box next to the big blue headings.
I am terribly sorry it hasn’t been better communicated, but as my wife is working from home, I have limited access to my PC. The real issue is SRS- like all the other software we use not being tested in anything like an industry standard, and consequently we have major bugs from time to time. I can promise you, rolling back is much less painful than losing connections multiple times while trying to use the latest one. All you need to do to roll back is copy the exe file over the existing one.
It is my intention to talk everyone through what is needed on startup tonight.
Yes Flyco, it is a real pain, but not down to just a lack of comms.
