Thanks Mike, I'll have a look at that. San Francisco is only 175 miles from Lemoore, so setting up flights from there to the carrier would be good. The challenge will be to make a hardened polygon and sit it precisely over the deck without having the model source file. The AFCAD file and flatten sh...

Hi John, This probably isn't anything you would want to use, but I finally found at least one static carrier at sea in P3D v3.4 and v4.1. It is a fairly basic version of the USS Kitty Hawk (CVN-63) located just southeast of the Golden Gate Bridge off San Francisco. Of course it would need a carrier ...

Re a further query that I would like advise on please, Windows Update keeps telling me of a NVIDEA Security update (Windows 7). Should I install it? Brian H Brian, I'm also running Windows 7 and have had this persistent Windows Update NVIDIA update notification for a while now, but it is for a driv...

John, Maybe this won't be of much help, but below is a summary of my current Flight Sim PC that I built several years ago and have upgraded several times since. I ran FS9, FSX and LM P3D v2 on it very successfully for several years when I had just Windows 7 Pro installed, but an abortive initial Win...

John, I found two static aircraft carriers that look like anonymous Nimitz class in both LM P3D v3.4 and 4.1, one docked at NAS North Island (KNZY) on the west coast and the other at NS Norfolk (KNGU) on the east coast of the USA, but unfortunately they do not have AFCAD's for AI aircraft takeoff an...

In this photo that I took a few years ago at the KBTV VT ANG base you can see the blue markings on all the practice ordnance mounted on this F-16D.

Done. Keep up the great work guys.

John, I just got a notice that that download link I posted may be for pirated software. I've reported it and asked for it to be removed. Sorry about that, but I had no idea that that was the case. :oops: Unfortunately AI carriers designed for use with Aicarriers2 can't be used for your tests until i...

Thanks Mike. I think they are AI carriers with landable decks for flyable aircraft. I was looking for a carrier I could set up the FSX/P3D AI F-35B's once made. Will these fit the bill do you think or do we have to wait for the moving carriers highlighted in Joe's post maybe? John Sorry John, I was...

Can anyone recommend an FSX carrier, preferably off the Florida coast and with a landable deck please? There are several at flightsim.com, but without trying them all I don't know which might be suitable. John John, Below is a link for the USS Nimitz and Eisenhower by Javier Fernandez, Sylvain Paro...

Looks like Wisconsin ANG and Alabama ANG can also be added to the list, as both were approved as the first ANG units to be assigned the F-35. Hi Larry, The Vermont ANG was announced in 2016 as the first ANG unit to receive F-35A's and the Wisconsin ANG and Alabama ANG will be the second and third A...

Mike, thank you for your explanations. Now that you write about this I remember that the Charles de Gaulle carrier traffic in the MAIW Rafale package is done that way. So I will also do it that way and use separate AFCADs for takeoff and landing. You're welcome Hartwig and yes, that is the way I di...

Hartwig, I didn't realize that your objective for each AI was to have multiple land based cat launches and traps back on the main runway during a relatively short period of time. Sorry about that. :oops: I ran into the same problem around 10 years ago when I was trying to simulate carrier flight ope...

Hartwig, I think the simplest way to go would be to create a separate invisible overlay AFCAD named AXXX with an invisible runway on your visible KXXX catapult runway with its own invisible AI parking, taxiways, etc. Then flight plan the AI to takeoff from AXXX and land at KXXX. I've done this at ma...

Thanks Giorgio. I don't know what happened there but my search of "Lamoore" in the Download Hangar a few days ago didn't return anything. This afternoon I tried it and it found two sceneries. Perhaps the search engine only works at weekends! Well that's my excuse. John Hi John, The NAS Le...

That looks fantastic John! You do amazing work my friend.

Thanks Greg,

Just what I needed.

Have you tried it yet Mike, came out today! lots of very annoyed people who have bought it already! bad reviews, i know its an early access, but they are saying it has worse performance than fsx.... Much thanks Mark Mark, I got an email today saying that my free copy is in my Steam Library, but I h...
