Landable Carriers?

I hate to be a pain, as I know this has been asked for some millions of times before, but I'm looking for an Aircraft carrier w/ arrestor cables and everything, the whole nine yards.  Can't find much this way, as aircraft and carrier each have different meanings for a search.

I see those Freeware shots of guys pullin off a carrier, and I need something like that.  Thanx for your help.

i can give you about 7 1/2 yards. do a google on 3wire. it's got almost everything.

>non-visible arrestor cables
>animated AI traffic (jets, helo's, heavies)
>realistic looking carrier, with battleships nearby.

thats almost what you want, for freeware

Thanx for the fast reply.

I quickly hurried over to avsim and downloaded 3wire.  After installation I started reading the readme and realized that I should use a downloaded carrier.  I downloaded the Waikato carrier, and tried to install it.  Following most instructions, I put it into the addon scenery folder.  I select one of the Waikato carrier flights, and click 'fly now'.  Low and behold, it leaves me with a little cessna out in the middle of the ocean, 100 or so feet above the water.  Quickly the plane drops to the ocean and there is clearly nothing around for miles.  *sigh* what'd I do wrong!


Also, does 3wire come with a carrier that is added in?  If so, where is it!

Nevermind, rebooted FS9 and fully functional carrier with operations.  Beautiful! Thank you for your help!
