F/A-18 Carrier Practice Arresting Wires

(1/3) > >>

Razgriz:
Is there any way to get some arresting wires at an air base?  I know a custom KNPA has landing wires but they won't catch you.  I'm going to try to replicate a video.  I will be modifying an airport to use the IFLOLS, but I want to be able to trap.

Do a search in the usual places, especially Avsim, for add on airports by jvile (Jim Vile).  An airport add on man of distinction.  He made one with an Accleration aircraft carrier deck buried in the ground, for practise purposes.  All his stuff is free as he is an enthusiast like most of us.  If you can`t find it and it sounds suitable post here and I`ll ask him about its location and download source.

I made the Acceleration carrier GPS locatable in FSX too, by a pre determined airport code but only when in port and stationary.  One version sets off at a given time but you can start on it before sailing time, from the FSX start menu.  This may help others who want to practise from the actual carrier deck but have trouble getting on board.  Its been available at Avsim for some time now in the FSX Scenery section.

Razgriz:
Thanks for the quick reply, I'll check it out.  Is there any way to link the hud up to the IFLOLS to get the bar on the hud?

Edit:

I can't find his airport with arresting cables.

reider:
No other details on it other than he spoke to me about it when I was making my GPS enabled carrier.  I`ll go ask him where it is and you can check it out.  Might take a little while unless he`s about.  I`ll post back as and when.

Razgriz:
Alright, cool.  Also link me to your GPS Carrier, I'd love to fly some sorties where I can actually guide myself back because there are no real missions in FSX Acceleration that actually have a length of time.
