Instead of the bolters I’d like to focus on the superior airmanship displayed in this clip, and handling of a jet with bent (defective) gear skidding down the deck. Also my ability to gently catch a 2 wire when we discovered they forgot to load the barricade at the dock.
@@JAR-STINGERS Its on the same page in the Supercarrier settings where you can turn off the FLOS overlay. I cant find a way of moving or turning off the annoying Salute message when you first crew in. You have to salute to get the deck crew to move you does not need an overlay IMHO.
Nice close formation. Syria would be the best map IMHO, desert and greenery, plus plenty of water for the boat. Plenty of historical and contemporary fights as the locals squabble about who produces the best hummus. Looking forward to Stingers '25 cruise tapes. Have to trap and below 800 ft/min vertical or the gear gets bent, gotta keep an eye on the number on the right and not let her drop onto the deck. I'll have to crash your party and bring a scooter into the pattern :)
You are welcome anytime mate! Thanks yes Syria is our favourite at the moment. A few of us have Iraq and Afghanistan but I’ve only done brief hops. Getting from the water to anywhere interesting is a long flight in Iraq and impossible in Afghanistan. See you soon by the way!
He’s such a great dude. We flew Janes F/A-18 together in the first online squadron I was ever in, VFA-14 Tophatters. I’ve known Boscoh since 1999 and we got to meet in real life in October.
I just watched the Independence Day again yesterday... Apparently, F-18 has a breaking chute somewhere near the air-brake. 🤯 Maybe Boscoh could use those to "land" a ship? 🤷🏼 Anything's possible! 😁 Great video, I really missed those so much. Wish you all a merry Christmass and happy New Year! 🙋🏼♂️ Greetings from Croatia/Hrvatska!
@@JAR-STINGERS That would be awesome, I'd really love to meet you in person! Keep in touch I guess, I just hope we don't end up in ww3 by then... 😬😉 EU is crazy.
The chocks are a feature, you need to start communicating with the deck crew to have them removing them, also a speed restrriction on the deck, don't you guys read the changelogs?
It’s great visually but not as comfortable to wear as my Rift S was. I got the deluxe strap but am still working out how to make it feel better after a couple hours.
Are you waiting for the day when we can walk out of the Ready Room all the way the way to your jet, get in, run the check lists, follow the plane handlers, (… signature move, no big deal) wait for the cat-shot? … I believe that day will come.
@JAR-STINGERS yeah, it's been pretty dim for a long time (years).I think it should be a priority fix, so crucial to the reality of naval aviation...tell Wags!..lol
Do you guys have a discord and are you accepting new guys? I love the Hornet and I'm looking for a great group of experts to teach me how to trap correctly.
@@Leper_Messiah. hi Leper thanks for your interest. We’re just trying to get the band back together ourselves at the moment but I would like to bounce around with some new pilots in 2025.

Indeed it was spectacular flying. I think we’re going to see a lot of bent gear in 2025 😊
Say sike.....
Welcome back, and god damn have I missed Sting TV Platcams.
Thank you can’t tell how appreciated comments like yours are, legend
Welcome back!
Thank you sir, the new air boss station is epic! Loving the updates
Jesus Jar did you guys join the Air Force while you were away or something? 😂
Great to see you guys back!
Thanks Bag eye!
Glad to see you back always enjoy the Stinger vids
Thank you Dayle, much appreciated brother
Missed yall! Welcome back!!!
@@ajobis1881 thanks Hollywood!
I believe after you land and turn off and the marshaller has you stop, that is where crew members run around and de-arm your missiles and bombs.
That makes sense thanks WS. It’s very immersive getting directed about, I might turn off the little markers above their heads though if I can

Nice work Jar. Welcome back
Nice work Jar. Welcome back. The MT version of DCS is a major improvement for me.
Thanks Jag! Yes truly an incredible experience that gets better and better. So crazy how good DCS is.

Group hug!
Finally!!!
Great to hear from you, still the best nickname ever
welcome back!
@@speed-of-heat thank you sir!
Can’t believe it was 3 years ago the supercarrier trapz were apart of the regular programming
@@Goststriker thanks much appreciated - we are coming back!
@@JAR-STINGERS if you gotta take a break, then you take a break. "See'ya here" (Blancolirio).

Greetings from Croatia/Hrvatska!
Thanks Pappa Bear! Hey might be coming to Croatia in June, can I buy you a coffee/beer if I make it there??
@@JAR-STINGERS That would be awesome, I'd really love to meet you in person!
Keep in touch I guess, I just hope we don't end up in ww3 by then... 😬😉 EU is crazy.
I’m here for the chicks
You need to get a stimulator and get in on the action Thomo
Raise the Barricade for Boscoh.
Is it in yet? 😂 I haven’t been keeping track! Thanks Juice
Wow, good to see you guys back. Thought you guys had disbanded or something. Afghanistan or Iraq would my choice for a new deployment.
Thank you, we definitely had a good break that’s for sure! Yeah there’s a couple Stingers looking fwd to Afghanistan missions

@@Squid2650 ha ha who has time for that? 🤣
@@JAR-STINGERS With the time you are wasting asking the questions... EVERYONE ;) Enjoy christmas bro, and nice vid as always
@@Squid2650thanks Squid you are exactly right brother appreciate the help. Merry Christmas to you as well sir!
Love it! How are you liking the Quest3? My G2 broke recently and have been struggling to find something I like
It’s great visually but not as comfortable to wear as my Rift S was. I got the deluxe strap but am still working out how to make it feel better after a couple hours.
@ thanks for the feedback

Totally, it’s such an awesome environment. Walking around the deck with jets taxiing past- so cool. Thanks for your support over the years Ben!
Do you think that the meatball is much harder to see than earlier versions? Its much dimmer than like a year ago, IMO.
@@Plydrms I’m not sure but it’s acting up a bit for me, I’ve had to enable the overlay thing for the ball to work at the moment
