vLSO Beta release
SpazSinbad:
Thanks again for Phantom for FSX info Letourn. Not sure if I'll have time to check it out though. Others may find them useful however.
IMHO from long experience with all 'supposedly' Naval aircraft until FSX came along with the Hornet - these older aircraft were not worth much in that regard. The SLUDGE (with various helpers) Hornet fix and the T-45C from Dino Cattaneo + HUD helpesr are terrific, with all the improvements made in FSX by various people all posting here. Of course there may be other 'naval' payware/freeware FSX aircraft by now but I'm very happy with the two mentioned. Many thanks to all concerned again as well as to 'fsxnp' and the 'terrifying' Mission 5 FCLP! ;D ::)

You are ready to snatch the pebble from my hand, grasshopper. :D Haha. Seriously, great pass. ;D I see that you are still in the low 20s for groove time but I've given up on that, as I'm still working (and succeeding, thanks much to our in-house genius Serge) of re-writing the XMLs.
Once I get that and a few other things done for the Sludge v1.2 Delta, I'll start working patterns feverishly again to try to figure out the disconnect between REAL WORLD and FSX in this regard. I'll let you know as soon as I figure something out.
Later

That was the other thing I wanted to mention. Time in the groove doesn't actually start at the ball call, but rather when the aircraft is within lineup limits and wings level.
GOONIE:
Serge,
I thought of a cool trigger for your "very nice" sound file (.wav), it would trigger for a smoking hot CV break. What do you and others think about adding a voice trigger to the vLSO, similar to the abeam trigger "paddles copies" .wav, that would trigger when flying over the carrier at 800ft agl (+- 50ft) at 300KTS or greater (or should it be faster)? Maybe also add a note to the LSO debrief line, for SHB ;) Two videos of smoking hot CV breaks! 8)
Also, I know OK are typically reserved for emergencies, but do you think you could add criteria to the vLSO to make getting this grade possible if the approach is flown almost perfectly? Not sure what that means, but my first guess would be -+0.1 deg G/S and lateral tracking on speed entire approach.

OMG... Does it really work with the 0.2 beta???? Could you tell me what's the value of its atc_model parameter under [General] section of its Aircraft.cfg, please?

Nothing listed there for ATC_ID or Model. That's probably why it still works.
After reviewing the list of aircraft that I had in mind, it's probably a better idea to add a function that allows the user to make new profiles rather than trying to work them all out myself.
