Mr. ESzczesniak,

If you haven't had a chance to read this post http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=1908.msg16018#msg16018 you will see that the original settings for the tailhook(s) were misaligned.  This fixes it for the above aircraft mentioned.  I'll look into the settings for Accelerations's F/A-18A/CaptainSim's F/A-18D's as well; might have the same issue.  If they are misaligned it might be contributing to some difficulties trapping them during landing for some users.

JamesChams:
Well, in investigating the tailhook locations issues for the Acceleration F/A-18A, CaptainSim's F/A-18D & F-117A, I found that Microsoft got their Acceleration F/A-18 dead-on accurate in all its settings.  However, CaptainSim's F/A-18D's tailhook was misaligned (and I've now fixed it) and both their Launch Bar location are correctly forward but NOT dead-on accurate to their locations; they do, however, work as intended.

So, I posted a new fix here: Aircraft AI Carrier Configurations v1.3 by James F. Chams

Acceleration F/A-18A (Correcting settings)


CaptainSim F/A-18D (settings off)


CaptainSim F/A-18D (settings Tailhook Fixed)


CaptainSim F-117A (settings somewhat correct)


Enjoy! :)

Thanks for the tail hook updates James, I just finished updating all of my F/A-18D's.
