First off my sincere thanks for taking the time to make all of these videos, as others have stated I enjoy them very much. Do you have all of your slides available for download anywhere? There hasn't been one that didn't bring concise information, and as I work on my own flying as well as working with others. It would be great to have them on hand to work through practices especially after longer periods of not having time for DCS. I understand if your intent is not to produce such things, I can always try to replicate them myself. Thanks again for your time and knowledge!
I'm glad these videos are helpful. Unfortunately, they only masquerade as slides. The only real "slide" I have is the blank background with the channel logo. Everything else is just a graphic I toss in front of it. You could just take screenshots of the screens you'd like to keep. If it's helpful you could also check out the Air Force manual I used as a reference. It can be located at the link below. Page 97 is where the Perch Setup portion begins. static.e-publishing.af.mil/production/1/aetc/publication/aetcman11-251/aetcman11-251.pdf
I really like these basic but absolutely fundamental and important skills. Any suggestions on finding a group that practices this sort of thing somewhere around a U.S. timezone?
Not off the top of my head. If I knew of one I would be flying with them instead of making these. 😁 However, I am planning on opening one up once I've got all the videos in place and more importantly, real life obligations lighten up.
You can use AI to do some of the formations. There are options in the mission editor and you can use the comms menu to direct them into certain formations. However, not all of their formations are like what the USAF uses. As far as a Perch setup goes, that's a little beyond the AI. You will need a human for this, and preferably one with a little patience. It's not very intuitive which is a big reason behind me making this video. Good luck!
Really good job, good explanation, good video. I wish you all success. Thanks.
At 6:00 you say the defender says "Fight's on", but I think you meant to say the offender says "Fight's on!".

It would be so cool to practice BFMs. Where can one find training partners (or dare I say trainers) to practice these exercises?

@@TheOpsCenterByMikeSolyom Lol, yeah. Your plans sounds interesting so I will keep my ears perked.

This is amazing content! Thank you so much! Even I understand now :)
Good stuff!
Really nice!!
Can I set up AI aircraft to practice this and formation flying? Have you used Modern AI Redfor Aircraft Pack?
