Found video here (actual URL for video below): http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?t=20153
"This video is a detail description of the break to land. You will find this helpful on landing upon a ship at sea."
http://www.fsxblueangels.com/applicationpacket.html (21Mb .FLV video)
You will find this video useful and I would stress for carrier ops please use the doughnut for Optimum Angle of Attack when below max landing weight (perhaps use below 50% fuel?) rather than 145KIAS as mostly indicated in video (where they do mention use the indexer if you can).
Two great videos now from the FSX Blue Angel team. Congratulations - great stuff - and thanks. ;D
[The other video is the 'how to carrier land and FCLP video' mentioned on other threads.]

Also from the Sim-Outhouse another great 'real life' Hornet Video (mpeg at 106Mbs):

Song is "Sniff 'N' Tears - Driver's Seat" - very appropriate. ;D

Nice video. Haven't heard Driver's Seat in ages.

Nice Video! 8) It brings back a lot of memories...The only thing thats different these days is that the decks are filled with only F/A-18's.
Back in my day, we had 7 or more different aircraft - from trainers like the T-2 & T-45 to bombers like the E/A-6 & A-6's, Sub hunters like S-3's, Fighters like the F-14's (A.'s/A+'s or some D's) & F/A-18's and a few more (including Helo.'s). That's what I notice more these days but, I guess that is good too. :-\
The modern US Navy is less diverse with little to no variety; I miss that. :)
