When you fly formation like we do...

It would be nice to see speed brakes come out when the lead calls for 'Boards'. Is this an issue that has been discussed? I haven't seen it.

As a pilot, I truely luv LOMAC, The only thing I'm real dumbed about is the taxi characteristics. NO Brake axis for toe braking pedals. (spent alot of $$$ on CH Pro pedals for nuttin'). Other than that I find the CH controllers are the best for lomac due to the possible 96 available commands via three modes.
I have Mode 1 set up for primary flight commands, Mode 2 for weapons, and mode three for navigation

I could have sworn I've seen my mate's brake open in the F15 online... maybe not.

[Buccaneer...]

When the GF and I go for a practice online via HL. I see her AB open/close all the time.

You can see your wingmans speed brakes, my wingman the other day saw me waveing at him with mine.

Actually, I haven't trued with all the A/C but I know this:

You can see the speedbrake online on:
F-15C
Su-27/33

You CANNOT see it on the A-10.

So if someone pops their airbrakes in an A-10 you won't see them open online.

I mainly fly 15 and 29 on-line, haven't tried the A-10 that much.

You don't have to fly it - of course you'll see your *own* airbrakes open ...

If you have a wingman who's in an A-10 and he deploys his airbrakes though, you won't see them open.

[BSS_Vidar]

Sorry about dat,
I knew the F-15 and other A/C speed brakes were viewable. I should have refined my statement.

Will the A-10 speed brakes be a revision in upcomming patches?

Oh yeah, how about an axis for toe braking
