    I can't express how thrilled I am by this campaign !! Flying the F14 has been my dream since I have 5 or 6 years old. Heatblur give us this marvelous module and then you give us two extraordinary campaigns to master this beautiful bird and have taste of what real F14 pilots had gone through.
    I will never thank you enough for what you've done for us, Tomcat lovers. You're the best !!!

    Man that sounds like work. I might pick it up anyways because I've enjoyed many campaigns on different aircraft. But I already work in an environment with many constraints and tight standards, and although I usually flight test the DCS models and can fly by the numbers given enough motivation, I probably don't have the will for constant attention to details a "qualification" would demand. But you never know, I've decided to learn the F-14 a few weeks ago because I got tired of the F-18 and it's one of the aircraft with many available campaign. I t looks like the format you have chosen (pause and whiteboard + repeat mission) is a very good one for instructing. Keep up the good work, it is appreciated.

    I still remember watching Speed & Angels back in 2008 when DCS was still in the oven and LockOn: Flaming Cliffs was the king. We used an F-14D mod in VNAO, that basically switched the Su-33 aircraft external model with the F-14D, and we used to dream that someday a true to life F-14D mod would come along and make our dreams come true. The F-14 by Heatblur certainly surpassed my wild imagination of what an F-14 mod would be like, and now having Paco creating campaigns for us... my young self back in 08' would never believe this 🤣

    Appreciate all your hard work Reflected. I know how psyched the community is for this. Be great if HB/DCS fixed the fuel-probe light (and the luminosity/bloom of all F-14 exterior lights whilst they're at it) in an upcoming Patch. I appreciate the night tanking missions in the Campaign will be fine without it, I'd just like to finally see it be as bright as it should be. The nav and strobe lights for the F-16 & Hornet for example, can be seen clear across the other side of an airbase.

    Where do I download the briefing PDF's for this?
    I had to stop playing the campaign because I don't want to bang my head against a wall. I want to red them 😅.
    Anyone know where to look?

    Is there any one else that use the F-14 in VR? I tried but it was a really bad experience , inside the cockpit they have made it to look so worn that you can't read many of the labels for buttons and levers in VR. It looks like it has not been for a maintenance in 50 years. I wish they could make a factory new cockpit so you could chose from a factory new f-14 so you can read in VR or a F-14 with poorly maintenance. The only reason I'm not flying it is because I can't read the labels in VR. F-14 is the only module I have that problem in. It is silly.
