Hawk T1/A Advanced Trainer

@bisinchi I agree, I feel like it does not bleed energy as it used to... Perhaps a real hawk pilot can shed some light?
During a run and break 360kts air brake out it does not seem to bleed energy too well either. As I understand you idle, air brake pull to the buffet which in this case seems to be 6/7G personally I would imagine in reality this is 3.5-4.5G.

@captain744 Since I fly both the Hawk and the Warrior, I unmapped the control for the Hawk, since part of my shutdown on the Warrior is to set the mixture to cutoff. Most people don't seem to want to have separate control schemes for different aircraft, but I find it much easier than trying to remember what the different buttons and sliders are mapped to, as the Warrior and Hawk are just 'slightly' different aircraft.

@jander I'd very much like this feature to be included too, especially as you are learning the systems.

@guenseli Thanks for the suggestion! We've made this and another change which should hopefully address this issue.

@martyn Thanks for fixing this so fast!

So far it would seem SU7 and update 1.3 have solved the issue I was having. so all is good!

Thanks again JF Hawk team! this bird is something special.

@martyn
Yes, I would like to have the option to switch of the JF breathing sound, if I feel ok with MSFS ones (especially when there is no other possibility to avoid double breathing)
thx

@martyn thanks so much for the great support!

@martyn I just woke up (in New Zealand) and that email was the 1st thing I saw on the computer. I'm gobsmacked, that was so fast ! Adding the TACAN to VOR frequency conversions to the checklist was a relatively simple addition but this ... you must have had this lined up already, this can't possibly be a response to something I said 24 hours ago ! (but I'm going to claim it is anyway :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: )

Thank you !

@snowy
Great stuff. No-one can tell you how to run your sim. Experiment, tweak and enjoy ! 👍👍👍

@guenseli This isn't a custom GPS but the default Aera GPS, so you can use the B variables for that.

Thank you for the explanation, understand now!

I also have the "license failure" problem. But I have never had the 1.1 version installed, so the problem can also occure with clean 1.2 installation as well.

This is a nice option to have. I use Gimp so will give this a try.

@astro_liam great images there. I’m loving the Hawk.

Yep, same problem. The Autopilot works fine and VS is used and functional, but the camera switch is very annoying.

@ockwellk Happy to hear you worked it out! Glad I could help...enjoy flying this amazing aircraft.

@frankattilio I agree that having the rudder steer is technically incorrect but my gut feel is that the whole thing is skewed by the overall flawed MSFS ground handling.

I upvoted the MS forum post to fix that but it's been noted as an issue since day 1 so I'm not hopeful.

In the interim I like the rudder steering as a work-around but accept that's a very personal preference.

I also feel the rudder doesn't have enough authority during take-off or landing rolls. My understanding is it should be effective above around 50kts but for me I end up with full right/left boot in and still drifting so don't use it at all now - only diff brakes.

A mate told me there's a modified hawk flight model on flightsim.to which changes rudder auth so I may try that but I'm loathe to break something else in the process tbh.
