As you may know, most fighters can handle two pilots. One will usually fly, while the other operates weaponry and mapping equipment.
ARTICLE I - Partners
When you have been interviewed and assigned your rank after testing, you must pick your partner if you are not a Wing Commander. You may pick ANYONE in the DIVISION, as long as they have been interviewed, trained, and given a rank. However, there can only be one pilot and one technician.
ARTICLE II - Assignments
When your partner has been chosen, you are both tasked with operations. The pilot relies on the technician to give him status on the plane's health and operation. The technician will also be in charge of miscellaneous weapons like smartmissiles and bombs. The technician must accurately land his shots according to the pilot. The technician relies on the pilot to fly the plane and keep the plane steady and at a maintained altitude and speed, therefore letting his weapons make contact, and their location to be evident to the technician.
ARTICLE III - Partnership
You rely on your partner often, so you should be wary of how to act while operating with them. Always try to;
- Act as a team, no matter what - Act friendly to eachother, a good mood can make a good mission - Use grammatically correct spelling, so you can communicate better
ARTICLE IV - Takeoffs and landings
When tasked or finishing a mission, you are to always take off and land to get from point A to point B. When tasked a mission you are to be instructed by a Wing Commander, and briefed. The Commander will most likely be in an air traffic control tower or control room aboard a ship. The Commander will ask you questions about your aircraft and how it is functioning, just incase you may malfunction in midair. When given the all clear signal you will take off down the designated runway. Speed and liftoff are important here, messing any of these up may cost you a fighter. When landing be sure to come in as slow as possible from the start, slowly breaking and activating your landing gear, then when you touch down, deactivate your engines.
ARTICLE V - Missions
When you are protecting a detachment of infantry as a pilot or technician, ask yourself these questions;
- Is my fighter well? - Will I hurt any of my teammates doing this? - Will my partner agree with me? - Is it danger close? - Do they really need it? - Am I cleared to do this? - What weapons do I have to do this, and have I spent them all? - What is my ammo count? - Should a different type of aircraft handle this mission? - Should I report back to the landing zone? - Does anyone else know? - Who is authorizing this on the ground? - Who is alive on the ground? - Who is in charge on the ground? - Are there enemy aircraft or anti-aircraft guns?
ARTICLE VI - Types of aircraft
Certain types of fighters or bombers are better for certain missions. For example, a fighter would be better fit to do air-to-air combat missions and strike missions than a bomber. A bomber would be fit to take out enemy infantry and vehicle units. Decisions like these are up to Wing Commanders. As a Wing Commander you MUST pick wisely.
And so this concludes the aerospace guide, this is just a smaller taste of a much larger guide to be updated in the future.
