Tanking

Postby chopper_nut » Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:40 pm

Years ago, I had Justflight's Tornado. It featured a mod where you could call up a tanker which would spawn, 10m ahead or something like that and you could take fuel. Does anyone know of anything like that for FSX?

With things like AI Carriers, you would think it would be possible to do something with a KC10 or 135. That TACPACK looks cool but I can't find a list of aircraft that are supported.

I must look at the RAZBAM Intruder, very sure that had a refueling option but never played around with it.

Yeh I don't think that Intruder was a tacpack thing. I seem to remember that it was a Razbam thing

I think it was maybe an optional mission that came with the Intruder
