In flight refueling

[carter43]

How do you do it? I've been wandering about this and just decided to post and find out. Thanks in advance!

You can set a key stroke for this I want to say the default is crtl X but I could be wrong. 8-)

How do you get the plane, hook up and stuff like hat?

i think CTRL+X is the fuel mixture :-?

If your talking about actual air-air refueling, like with a KC-135 or such... it cant really be done in FSX. You can make it appear to be refueling, but there is no actual hookup or fuel transfer.

You mean to a tanker. As far as I know, that's not supported except possibly with some payware, IIRC

Rats, there goes my chance of playing Air Force One and pretending Harrison Ford on on board.  Seriously though, that would be a great addition.

Okay then how do you get an AI tanker?

I recently aquired a C-130 add on for FSX and to my dissapointment the in flight refueling option is only avalible for FS9

The Aerosoft F-16 has really good in-flight refueling. You lock up the AI plane you want to take fuel from, then the MFD's and HUD give you lots of info on its position, speed, heading, etc.. Then open the refueling probe, and scoot up into a "refuel box" that's just below and behind the AI plane. Once there, after about half a minute you've gotten about +25% fuel. It is very challenging. Lots of fun! I think you may be talking about default (not payware) implementation of air refueling, but this F-16 is really a fantastic plane, and the in-air refuel feature is just one of the many outstanding things about it. Worth every penny!

Am a rookie by flying the Aerosoft's f-16. Do you have a manual? Most urgent how can I turn on the HUD??

I do not own this plane but my experience has shown me that by using the shift key start going down the numbers starting with shift 1 then shift 2, and so on. These keystrokes will turn on and off the various windows such as a HUD. 8-)
