Salute!
Here's the buff part of the plan for Frame 4 of OC:
- Gums will lead, and would like Darryl or Artty to be Deputy Dog. Disco aliens are still at large.
- B-17G at F1, SP3.
-- 40% gas and 6 x 1000 pound eggs
-- we climb at 120% using WEP1 and 150 mph. This is equivalent to old days wehn we used 90% power and did not have WEP for buffs. Should get us to 25K by about T + 45, so we have 15 minutes of WEP left for laggers to catch up on this long, long cruise
-- we cruise at 95% of normal power, so should have about 240 mph ground speed
- At the tgt, we have 9 lines. Would like to double up on one for sure, and extra buffs can double up on more lines.
-- I tried salvo 3 with a delay of 100 msec and had good results. The craters actually touch each other ( about 35 feet apart), but I would still pickle at leading edge of the tgts. If you are on a line requiring all 6 eggs, pickle twice quickly. This is so we don't have some folks with different salvo numbers than others.
-- Double up on line C to make sure the DAR goes down. Other doubles would be lines A, B and D
-- Nomads will take lines B,C and D. DR will assign others, plus the double on line C.
- Egress will be a right 180, so don't fly off the map! Then we cruise direct to F27 at 90% power. Tried higher, but speed was only 5 or 6 mph higher. Plan to start down about 40 miles out at 50% power or lower and 200 mph.
I have an accurate DTF for the buffs to have a good run in course. Can switch to the Dobs DTF easily before and after, so no biggie. We have lottsa time, heh heh.
