DCS World: Killer Fog

CAT3C ILS approach in F16, first attempt. Is it me or just the weather?

[@mvaldman2001]

Air Mishap investigation board determined the primary reason for the accident to be pilot error to continue the approach to land without having visual contact with the runway while chasing the glide slope below the flare height. Contributing factor was the pilot being stupid 😅

[@BirdstrikeJack]

any reasonable pilot should decide not to fly in this weather in the first place. we were pushing limits on this one.

This my friends is what us real pilots like to call an "unstable approach" Go around and try to track glide slope/localizer

[@BirdstrikeJack]

was cat3c manual approach. first try ever tbh. since dcs is study sim we decided to try and see the outcome. was 3 of us there and one buddy managed to land unscratched. it really takes nerves of steel to do it. well try more for sure.

@@BirdstrikeJack just keep those needles centered. Good luck 👍

[@Kadencabs]

the sounds are relaxing

[@zbyskie]

Low key extreme. Next time try to also keep it on glideslope.

[@jacksonsingleton]

Way off glideslope and you can also get more dense to where you only see white lol

[@BirdstrikeJack]

localizer is offset in rl. that last mile was tricky. fog layer covered rnw so hard like 3m thick and nothing went tru. no lights nothing. receipe for disater.
