I yearn to land the Tomcat on the Carrier deck, but I have not found a model with a working tailhook, and by that I mean it extends, but never catches the cable. I've tried many different models from here on Simviation, my favorite is Steve Hinson's Rev 3 (sonic boom and everything) but they all seem to have the same problem. I am using AI Carriers 2 for the carriers...
Any help?

Doesn't Dino Cattaneo's F14 have a working tail hook? I know his T45 Goshawk does, so I'm pretty sure his F1 does too. Check his planes out, they're awesome, and freeware too

Pfevrier is right, the FSX Tomcat by Dino Cattaneo (the real FSX native, not the old FS9 model) has a working arrestor hook, just like his GosHawk.
However, the arrestor hook (and catapult system) will only work with FSX Acceleration.
