No, it's off of Dundee Rd in the same shopping complex as Kohls and Harbor Freight.

Re: Won’t be on 1/10/24

Thank you. Wasn't able to make it. We went to a Japanese steakhouse, a place that Bones might be aware of since we both live in the same town : Rokbonki. One of my family's favorite restaurants.

Re: Won’t be on 1/10/24

Today is one of kid's birthday, and we usually go out for a family dinner. So it's unlikely that I will be on tonight.

Re: Button box

Got new rectangular buttons for master caution and master warn. Box is now fully wired. Here's a quick test of master caution and master warn.

Re: DCS IN-Game Voice Chat/VOIP/Radio

Your voice is pretty quiet on your videos. I didn't have my speakers turned up high enough to hear what you were saying but could hear the other guy just fine.
At any rate, I didn't know you could dump and burn in the Heatblur F-14!

Just watched part of the video. Did you just fuel dump and then ignite the dumped fuel? LOL!

Re: DCS IN-Game Voice Chat/VOIP/Radio

Note that this has to be enabled on the server in order for us to use it. I'm all for it. Sadly they haven't implemented native support into the Harrier for it, so I'd have to use the user interface.

Re: Button box

It's alive! First test (only partially wired up so far) but it's controlling the Harrier and getting information from DCS.

Re: Patch today

Well, I enjoyed not being shot down at least! I got 1 sortie in before my headache grounded me. (Not a good idea to do VR with a headache!)

Custom made Harrier button box

Read my blog posts about the custom Harrier button box that I made for myself to tide me over while I'm building my Harrier cockpit. https://openharrier.org/2023/12/30/button-box/ https://openharrier.org/2024/01/01/button-box-part-2/ https://openharrier.org/2024/01/06/button-box-part-3/ https://open...

Re: Masters of the Air - Apple TV mini-series

I will not watch it only because it's on Apple TV. I hate Apple TV with a passion.

Re: F86 Simpit using a real F86 aircraft

My friend and his team have made a ton of progress on the CA-27, and I am getting to contribute something to the build that I am giddy about. I am designing and building a pneumatic recoil system to simulate the vibration from firing the twin 30mm Aden cannons on the CA-27. The following video is my...

Re: Halloween outfit

No, not ejection garters. Boot bands. This is how you properly "blouse" your trouser bottoms so it looks like they are mushroomed over the top of your boots. Here's a video that shows how you would do it as a Marine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It5hfKwZhDc You wouldn't do this if you a...

Halloween outfit

This is what I wore to work on Tuesday. You'll note the nameplate says DCS PILOT. I purposely had the nameplate patch made that way. It would normally say USMC in bottom right corner but I am leary about people thinking I served when I didn't. I actually ordered a new patch with civilian wings inste...

Re: Mission Night 09.27.23

Thursday would work better for me, as would 9pm Eastern. But it sounds like that won't work for others, so I would suggest not changing it from where it is now. Hopefully things will settle down in November.
