Alphasim's Payware USS Enterprise has a limited number of AI Aircraft operating from it. They are limited however, and without wanting to blow our own trumpets, somtime this year I hope that we will introduce you to true Carrier AI for Flightsim, and when I say that I mean aircraft that take-off like they are being launched off a catapult, and land like they are trapping a wire.
Keep your eyes peeled.

In the case of the MAIW models that would be true.
There would be some limitations for flight plans, but those details will be released at the time that the models are done. As Nick says it will be some time yet so limitations may be altered or removed depending on the technology at the time.

Thanks Steve,
The AI will not need you to have a program like 3-wire or Carrier Deck to install wires and catapults, because the AI will be controlled by their FDE. Mike will tell me off for saying its simple because it isnt, but it is in essence "simply" a case of altering the acceleration and braking forces of the AI aircraft to operate on the carrier. This means they are unusable as land based aircraft however, and so causes alot of problems.
You only need the 3-wire programs for user aicraft not for AI, and hopefully our versions will mean that you wont see things like the alphasim version (taking nothing away from them because it is a great package) where you get an aircraft land shoot over the deck into mid air ahead of the carrier and then taxy back. The way we are working will see them confined to the deck as in the real world.
There will be a teaser as soon as we get it sorted and as soon as I have time to work with Mike on the project.

The sort of limitations that we are talking about would be either IFR flights only or at the very least No VFR TNG's. That sort of thing, but we will publish once all of the limitations and features are known.
