Somewhere there is a package where you can do that,I can't remember who got it for me, but it works pretty good (besides not being able to TRAP/CAT) but you can control where it goes and everything! I'll look for it. It's by Lamont Clark.

I'm not sure, I know FS04 planes work with FSX, but not sure the other way around...  couldn't hurt to try ;)

hi ,
i've tried it on 2004, but cannot get it to work  (maybe because i do not know where the carrier files is located in fs9?

:(

so if someone know about a way to move carriers in fs9, i will gladly appreciate it!

There are a number of add-on carriers available here at SimV, shouldn't be too difficult to change it to the location you need. Don't forget to download your arrestor wires as well for practicing landings without going swimming ;)

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Flight Deck 3 (on offer right now) comes with wires & catapult.   Awsome but don't forget to glue your teeth in for landings   ;D
If you use the autopilot approach you can watch youself land........ 8-)
When the c**p hits the fan, get a tent.
