A couple of CA screenies - Note to self - do not use the coordinates in the bino view for calling in arty!  Now that's a target -  FYI CA players - the new patch mapped the old Binoculars 'B' key to Cruise Control - so you won't need to hold down the 'W' key when going long distances. Problem is there is no key assigned to the binos now.

Need to look at the CA Options settings and assign a key to Cruise Control and reset the Binos to 'B'.
Sounds like it is time to review those settings anyway, as there are a few new features in there. I saw in the manual where JTACs should be able to fire flares in addition to smoke - will be handy at night. Also, the 'G' key can be used by a JTAC(?) to call all the other units of the group to assemble on a desired point.
I can use the stick to look around while the vehicle is in motion. I want some other functions on the stick, too, instead of having to reach for the KB. Like firing a weapon and cycling between turrets and weps.

Okay, I'm transferring SALT AND PEPPER over to the server now for its first run. It's not an intricately scripted mission with elabourate triggers or anything but there is still some margin for error.
Please report your findings.
Briefing:
HEIGHT RESTRICTED: STAY BELOW 500 FEET. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Many armed convoys are making their way to "the basket" on the coast at the end of "the Highway" made famous by Wrecking Crew. UH-1 and P-51s are to work together to destroy ALL convoys. If you let them get into the basket... well... your job just got a lot more difficult.
2 "Super Convoys" will make their way down the highway at some point. Targets extraordinaire- but better defended than your average bear. You'll want to bring all your friends who have guns to that party.
DETAILS:
SALT: Waypoint 6 is "The Basket" Waypoint 7 is Gelendzhik
PEPPER: Waypoint 3 is FARP London Waypoint 6 is "The Basket" Waypoint 7 is FARP Dallas
FARP LONDON 127.5 FARP DALLAS 128.5

You'll want to bring all your friends who have guns to that party. Hey Eno! Do you have CA slots, too? Red side slots?  I ended up putting in two Ground Commander slots for each side in the S'paign, one wasn't enough. I foresee coordinated attacks by these GCs real soon. It will be a Really Big Deal when the CA GCs can control AI a/c. WC

I'll see how the feedback comes back.
What gun positions can GC guys take over? Can they control AAA?

Pretty sure can't drive ships, either. FYI - to use arty in CA at least one arty unit in the group has to have Player Can Drive, otherwise there is no way to set targeting locations. WC

OOoo la la - Just read a couple of posts at DCS Forums makes me think the Combined Arms control of AI a/c in multiplayer is working.

A couple of CA screenies - Note to self - do not use the coordinates in the bino view for calling in arty! Crew. If you're not using the laser the Bino view will give your location. Hit the L key and then it'll show the location of the target (if within 10km- over that it'll give your position again...something to watch for!)

The Salt and Pepper Highway was pretty cool... Lots of mini gun action many more smoking craters from used up Uh-1H airframes... Great mission eno.  Archi with glowing mini's  Wheel just finishing an attack  Wheel with a Tail Rotor Drive Shaft Failure after taking fire from ZSU 23 emplacement on a mountain. Archi took out the emplacment after Wheel took the punishment.
