Several questions:

What carrier is that? Where did you get it?

How is the AI landing aircraft on it? Is that online?

What sim is it?

Okay first I am not the CO of VC8 VUSN.

Next: The carrier is Waikato at AVSim. The nicest one that I have found so far File is waikatov3.zip, make sure you get v3 not v2

It is not online. You have to turn your dynamic scenery to extremely dense to get the AI a/c to do their little show. ReadMe file explains how.

Its FS2002, I got the Garwood at PlaneSim with a recent download, ccryan4.zip

Anyway, good luck, Its a lot of fun to sit back and watch the show, and also to join in landing behind the other fighters or taking off. There's a lot of action.

Very, Very Sorry, the carrier is HMNZS Waikato thats Waikato without the u at the end as I had it. The file is waikatov3.zip that is "v" vice "u" as I had shown it above. It is at AVSim, just checked and author is s.reweti@massey.ac.nz I will go back and amend my other post.

Good Luck and Have Fun

Quick question...

Is the carrier, boat and such available in a format that works with 2004? Just wondered I know that you said some were made for 2002, but wasn't sure what you are running now...

Jared

P.S. Very good quality pcitures! Good job!

Everything on this post I am running on FS2002, although I run both 02 and 04 side by side. I do believe some of it says FS2004/02 except for Waikato, although it may run on 04. Guess you would have to load it and try.

A case of mistaken identity.lol.His callsign also happens to be Splash (and if I remember correctly you used to have something about being Canadian in your signature-he is also a canadian),and I have noticed you post a couple of Naval related things.
