Good stuff Pongo,
I watched this video of Recon over and over when training for my tick in the box with the 132nd, I know this is A10C but do the same principles apply ?

The link takes me to the point in the video where they are about to overhead break for landing, was that bit you meant?Alien wrote: ↑14 May 2020, 14:52 Good stuff Pongo,

I notice the lead guy says he pulls 3g on the break, which is fine to set a finite g limit for an aircraft that is only ever going to land on tarmac. For a navy aircraft designed to circle a boat and land on it, we need to have a slightly more precise method of turn radius measurement and offset from the deck, so we go with 10% of indicated air speed for the break.
When we go to the boat, we should be 350kts at 800ft when we break, so we would break, chop throttle as we pull 3.5g and let the g come off as the speed does to maintain 10%, at or below 250kts drop the gear and below 200kts the flaps, by which point you should be on the downwind at 1.2nm offset from the deck which gives you a 30 degree angle of bank constant turn at the abeam point to land on the deck.
