Great composition in that shot. I like shots that have some background candy :)

Thanks guys. Don't get time to do many nowadays so only try to spot the best ones or the ones that are a little bit different.

Mark, as there's no VC you have to use the 2D panel all the time. Because the panel is a bit high it makes landing difficult so what I've done is rework the bmp to make it lower and move the instruments using CFGEdit.

Let me know if you want the reworked bmp and cfg file

Pressing shift+enter raises the seat ;)

Also, is that an AI AWACS plane I see on the left in that panel shot ??

OK smartie pants - we all know that. But you don't want to have to do it every time you fly  :)

No that's not an AI Hawkeye - just a static one on one of my carriers. But Rick Sasala has done a GMAX E-2C so it could easily be an AI. Already thought about it actually - might incorporate it into my carrier package. Instead of having 2 carrier jets doing TandGs, replace one with a Hawkeye maybe? Hmmmm ;)

Getoutofit! The panel was just a little tweak, and the other stuff is just because I'm an old fart who still has an enquiring mind! Plus it helps that I still like to play ;D

Pity that I've got a business to run - wish I had more time for these fun things so I could get a few things finished ::)

I really will get this carrier thing done though because it's good fun - ask Ozzy ;)
