Multiplayer Carrier Ops - Nimitz
Orion:
Sorry guys, but for the sake of trying to release before Christmas and not staying up really late on school days, I'm just keeping it as is. Only things left are the documentation and reward graphic, which will hopefully be done this week.
To be honest, I know buddy refueling does exist, but in the mission, I think it'd be kinda unrealistic for a FA-18 to be circling around, for like, forever, with unlimited fuel and being able to refuel anyone as many times as they'd like. I think seeing a 737 doing that is much more realistic, in the case of the mission, but that's just my opinion.
Intrepid:
Forgive me ,and please don't take this the impolite way :) but the odds of having a 737 in the neighborhood for refueling birds waiting to land,,,I don't know :-\
Isn't the standard procedure to launch a Viking with a refueling probe ???

Intrepid, Today with only Hornet / Super Hornets mix of aircraft onboard I'm told that a Hornet or Super (which can carry more fuel) would be a buddy tanker - 'first off' 'last back' to be the refueller if needed. But I understand the requirement for the work in FSX to be simple at moment.

Its the Super Hornets that can carry the Buddy Tank. Those are the first-up, last to land. Always.

Well, legacy hornets or rhino's can both buddy tank. With the Super Hornets around, they usually fill the role, but both are capable.
