 ;D I freaking love this guys. Great work. Just found the catapult fix as well.

How about a session soon guys?

fael097:
guys, do you have any tips to keep the centerline? this was one of my best landings, but still a little tricky to keep centerline, as it's not aligned to the carrier's heading.

thanks

When you're lined up, aim for the 'crotch' (at least that's what I think its called) of the ship.

Here's a picture of what I'm talking about:

A few reference videos:

GOONIE:
Here's another picture of the "crotch". Sounds terrible I know  :-\

I've put a cartoon Flight Path Vector (HUD symbol) on the picture to show how you line up with this area using the FPV. Doing so accounts for the ship moving forward and the runway moving to the right.

Also one vLSO picture of how if this technique is used, you can fly mostly down the center for an OK3  8)

SUBS17:
Had an approach and noticed when I didn't catch the wires that "Bolter, Bolter" did not come up on the radio. Can this be modified to happen in the event someone gets a wave off but continues anyway?
