To use one of these scenarios it much first be activated from the AI Traffic and Scenario settings dialog (or in the command line).Ĭertain aircraft such as the A4F, Lightning or T38 automatically load a scenario containing a tanker. Generally these scenarios are less useful than the AI Tanker dialog. There are some AI scenarios that place a tanker aircraft at a specific position flying a predefined route. This means that it can be hard to hold position in bad weather. The AI tanker aircraft has a simplified flight model which isn't affected by the atmospheric simulation. The contact radius is a useful approximation of realism as it allows you to receive fuel based on your ability to hold position. The tanker AI dialog allows you to select one of the appropriate tanker types, set the airspeed and the contact radius. The tanker control dialog in FG 2.11 Necessary preparations Request a tanker at current positionĪs of FlightGear 2.4.0 you can request a tanker close to your current position, via the in-sim AI > Tanker Controls dialog. It does not require much coding-skills and can be done by the average FlightGear user. Implementing aerial refueling capability to other aircraft is pretty straight forward, as explained in this article.
It is not possible to control the boom/hose position yet they are always operable when the tankers are air-born. Refuelling is also possible between aircraft in a multiplayer session.

When flying one of these aircraft in the default scenery area, one can locate the tanker aircraft using air-air TACAN and/or radar and then receive a full or partial load of fuel by flying in close formation behind the tanker. 2.1.1 Request a tanker at current positionĪt present, there are three tanker aircraft and several receiving aircraft capable of in-air refuelling:.
