IMC Carrier landing... Major frustration!

[machineman9]

If you've not yet played that mission, give it a go! There is the carrier tutorial, then a carrier practise (make 5 landings in a row) and then the IMC mission....

Basically zero fuel, zero visibility, only your trusty wingman to fly you in... I was like Cougar, and he was Maverick 


You follow your wingman down (tiring to stay in formation) and he flies you down to the carrier for your emergency landing. At the last moment my airspeed dropped by about 10 knots, and I overestimated my climb and shot over the cables. Boltering, when you can't see outside the window, with no orientation, is not a good thing.

I managed to find the carrier again (wingman didn't help this time, he was having a coffee break) and made a perfect landing... Right until the moment when the plane tipped forward and clipped the wing.


ARRRGGHH!!!

I have ever tried this one.
I tried only the one with the 5 landings in a row... and then, if you takeoff again, and climb at 10.000 (I think), you find a new waypoint... refueller !

It takes spme practise in the earlier tutorials, I've done this OK on both pc and laptop, ok, if you bolter you have to stay low to
