a great idea about the flight manual

hey guys just curious and hope u do this...
will u guys be releaseing the flight manual before your product so we can read up on it and be ready to fly the jet prior to release?
thats how PMDG did with all there products let us learn to fly as soon as we got the product.

I think that it will include real Hornet manual (NATOPS) so you can already search the web and download it.

ok would u happen to know a link i could go to for the F-18C hornet i would like to read up on it before the product is released this way i can fly your simulation knowing things lol

You can try here, but be warned - it's 900 pages.

NATOPS doesn't cover everything, the Classified Pilot/Weapons Manual does.... 

to give you an idea, take that 900 Pages and add another 2000 or so, with detailed instrumentation sections.........

also NATOPS I am told are rapidly superseded by operational changes and airframe or systems modifications

Thankfully the declassified part is available freely:

click on the download alongside;
'NATOPS FLIGHT MANUAL NAVY MODEL F/A-18A/B/C/D 161353 AND UP AIRCRAFT'
