Absolutely marvellous stuff!  100% pure ambient cockpit sounds.

That's a cool video fsxnavypilot!

Fellas...

Check this out. Some really great legacy Hornet stuff from the Canadian side (Alphas/Bravos) and a perfect in-flight pilot HUD view at 30:28. See how UNOBTRUSIVE the physical HUD Indexer is... if youre not a Hornet guy, you'd have a hard time spotting it.

Part 4 (out of 5).
At 4:00 some good examples of the LSO at work both ashore and at sea. And working IFLOLS and FLOLS lights.

Classic, although one would think they would review the script with a pilot, "minimum 150kts to avoid engine stall". Typical, most of the general public outside think of a stall as their car engine stalling, not as an aerodynamic term.

... And working IFLOLS and FLOLS lights.

Actually it was a MOVLAS Mk1 installed at station 1 (in front of FLOLS)

Thought this was fake or FSX (looks like the FSX PLAT cross hairs), pretty close call for the Greyhound!  

You can also hear the LSO call a 4.0 degree G/S for the 50 Knot winds!!!   Guess we could try 50 Knot winds in FSX for the 4.0 Degree G/S.

Another C-2 video, start around 50 seconds to see how much your hands need to be moving, notice how solid it looks when the camera looks at the boat IM vs the movement in the cockpit.

Thanks 'capthaltli' great second movie. He works hard for the money! 

In FSX we can do anything but in reality of more or less than 'ideal NATOPS' WOD brings a penalty. I guess for the aircraft in question the WOD was within limits.

Here is an explanation about 'higher than required WOD' penalty with a .GIF graphic summary attached:

Last two thirds of movie much better than first third (due terrain & view forward).
