vLSO Beta release
texxasal:
Since it's the season for Christmas Lists, how about a "bump" on a request from quite some time ago.
Any chance we can get FCLP for Lemoore (KNLC) 14L & 32L runways? It's a long haul to Whidbey Island.
I can supply you with an AFCAD which overlays MegaSceneryEarth Cal.
Thanks a lot for this great program.

Al,
Well, the work is on final. I'll publish my vLSO integration pack for KNLC as soon as uchi's Lemoore scenery is ready.

I'll have to look for that info now..... At one point for SOPs it says the CV NATOPS Manual is a reference (no other details). I'll guess there is a diagram or two in the NATOPS, so I'll post that here. Meanwhile the July 2009 CV NATOPS is here:
http://info.publicintelligence.net/CV-NATOPS-JUL09.pdf (5.7Mb) APPROACH twin engine AoA Weight Airspeed Chart to follow and here is the FCLP text.... LAST GRAPHIC has TEXT from NATOPS about LANDINGS.....
8.3 FIELD CARRIER LANDING PRACTICE
8.3.2 Pattern Entry. "Call "Paddles" prior to entering
the pattern to find your interval. Execute a level break
on your interval when in sight. A 350 knot, 11 unit AOA
turn will put you at the proper no-wind abeam distance,
with a slightly wider pattern allowed for night
FCLP. All patterns should be flown in accordance with
local course rules for the field being used. On the
downwind leg, descend to pattern altitude, complete
the landing checklist, and slow to 17 units AOA
approaching the abeam position, verifying proper AOA
versus airspeed. FCLP landings may be made in the
20° flap configuration; however, in light wind conditions
(less than 10 knots head wind component) the
power setting required to maintain glideslope will be
somewhat lower than ideal. When headwind components
are 15 knots or greater no noticeable difference
between 20° or 30° flaps exist. For full stop landings,
the 30° flap setting is recommended due to the reduction
of landing distance roll out.
8.3.3 Pattern.
8.3.3.1 Approach Turn. The approach turn shall be
flown at 17 units AOA in order to have a 3/4 mile
wings-level groove length. Altitudes and pattern shall
be flown in accordance with course rules of the field
being used, striving for 450 to 500 feet AGL at the 90°
position, and 350 to 375 feet AGL passing the 45°
position."

I had all the Raz birds in an earlier version of vLSO and have since forgot to add them in with each update. Busy trying to master another Grumman Iron Works 'Cat around the boat that was recently released.
Great find Spaz!
