I'm not asking for one to be built just asking folks which model is capable of landing on a carrier :(
I've tried the two G-Max models but one really dosn't want to stay flying in a straight line and, the other requires an airspeed of 200 knots to give a survivable decent rate but, a suicidal decent rate to maintain a survivable landingg speed ::)

Craig what models are you using? I've got the 14 on the deck loads of times!

Jeff Dobbing's F-14D and Dinno Cattaneo's G-Max F-14B.
At first I figured it was just me, but after 25 consecutive crashes I think theres gotta be something wrong with the airfile. The only time I actually survived an ecounter with the deck resulted in catching a wire and roling off the deck without having stoped and without enough speed to go around.

Hmm try the F-14D Tomcat VX9 by Kefren, Stijn 'JZ1973', Kirk Long, and sounds by Aaron Swindle.
That is a joy to fly, and great for deck work.

Ozzy ;)
