Hello Spaz!
Thank you very much for posting the Info. This is a new information for me. I did downloaded your Manual Navy for the T-45. I will go through it tomorrow in details. I understand now the different between the T-45C and FA-18 Hornet. Herb

Thanks to all posters.  I think I'm flying the pattern better although I'm still too far out yet closer than before.  Speed was a little low on final line-up, I think, as I was trying for 120 KIAS.

The new T-45C will soon have an update correcting a few things.

Hey Wily, the speed brakes on the T-45 are always extended on carrier landings. With the speed bakes on, your approach speed will match the speeds in the table :)

Next flight as per instrucyion from LSO (neutrino, previous post).

On turning to line-up, fuel 93%, AoA 6.8, full flaps, speed brake open 131 KIAS.

A few seconds later----
Wave off, too high, too far right, too fast (from pilots point of view).
AoA 7.1, 134 KIAS, rate of descent too high

Hello Wily!
Did you read above from Spaz about the Indexer? I tried with Half speed-break and had a green chevron and a blinking donuts, my Indexer was 18 units on final. On both of your pictures, I do not see the Indexer. i installed the Carrier Landing Gauge from the FA/18 to the T-45C just to see what wire I'm catching. Herb
