Hey Sludge :)

Thanks for your advice really helps alot.
I will be doing many hours of practice and reading on this for sure. Its a bit complicated at first but I am sure I will get used to it LOL.
one question for you though . . . . Are you a involved with the NAVY at all ???? Its really amazing how you know all this :)

Scuddy...

No problem.  When I get some time, we may have to meet up on the San Diego Carrier Mission, and do some passes.  I havent taken anybody on a tutorial in a while, so it would be fun getting back in the saddle and teaching again.

I'm not currently, I used to be... I went started the Navy SNA (student naval aviator) pipeline but washed out after instruments because of being a puker.  Then they put on the the GW as a division officer, til I got out in '03.  Did some time in the "chair force" with "earwax".  airforce awacs to the uninitiated.  So I still keep in the know, but not directly involved.  Actually, I get my best knowledge from prior/present Hornet drivers, and reading/practicing NATOPS straight outta the book.  Funny part is, I wasnt that knowledgeable when I first got into this (check my earliest posts in fall of '09), but have steadily learned more. Just taken what I've heard (pilots), read (F-18 NATOPS, LSO NATOPS), and seen (my USN days)... and applied it to FSX naval aviation.

yea that sounds fantastic mate. The only problem would be the time delay as I like in the UK but will stay up late into the morning anyway lol.
Getting a tutorial and knowledge from you would be just epic :D

Awesome always wondered what it would be like in the E-3 sentry. Well i will be patient and look forward to hearing from you for a training mission.

Hello!
I did set the Nimitz v2 into military mission/Carrier Mission Practice. I turned the Clock 2 hrs. back, to have a little daytime. :) I was not able to get the Sludge FA18_FX Charlie into the .FLT file as a working plane. At opening flightsim, I get error message: Sludge Can't be loaded. So I did what Sludge wrote in 2009, when on the Nimitz, change the default to his Sludge FA18 and save the file with a name. Next time I chose the saved flight in the mission. I would like to have the VFA-143 as my default. What do I have to change around? I don't like to mess it up now. Any help? Thank for 'Skippy Bing Trap-gauge'  Sludge, Capt and Neutrino's help.  Herb

Paddles:
Herb,
Just open your Carrier Practice.FLT file with the notepad and find the [Sim.0] section. Then change the Sim parameter to Sim=Sludge Basic F/A-18A VFA-143 or Sim=Sludge FX F/A-18A VFA-143.
