-- Simple Recovery tanker script demonstrating the use of the RECOVERYTANKER.uncontrolledac method.
-- or RECOVERYTANKER:SetUseUncontrolledAircraft(). Both are shown below.
-- You will require an AI skill S-3B tanker group placed in the mission editor,
-- Set to "Takeoff from Ramp" and ensure "Uncontrolled" is ticked.
-- Ensure "Late activation" is not ticked.
--
-- 2 S-3B Tankers will be spawned on the USS Stennis as a visible objects (not late activation) but without crew.
-- After 30 seconds, the first S-3B will start up go on station overhead at angels 6 with 274 knots TAS (~250 KIAS).
-- After 1 minute, the second S-3B will start up and go on station overhead at angels 12 with 300 knots TAS (~250 KIAS)
-- Radio frequencies, callsign are set below and overrule the settings of the AI group.
--
--
-- tankerStennis2:Start()
-- The above without "--" is loaded to the Mission editor trigger "Do Script" action after 60 seconds condition.
-- NOTE: Delay to show Aircraft visible on deck then starts later (60 seconds after mission start)..
