I've had Combat Flight 2 for some years now, and Vietnam Air War add on.The problem I find is most of
the jet aircrafts just ditch into the sea when taking off.
I've tried reading the manuals and holding the wheel
brakes untill the engines are at fall thottle, increase
mixture etc.When most of the sea missions start I
seem to be to near the front of the carrier with a third
of the runway.
  Does any one have the relative experience to get the
planes high enough off the deck.

Naval jets require a catapult to get off a carrier unless the flight model is a pure joke.  Additionally the require the flaps to be extended as seen in the picture



WEP can be modified to simulate a cat shot. One of the guys who knows airfiles should be able to take you through the modifacation.

You may find Modern and Korea era carriers in one of the thread in this post dedicated to CFS2 Ships. Just scroll through the post and you will find it.

I hope I have been helpful!

We finally got jets to function properly in CFS3 but none of this series can model anything more then a high transonic plane. 

Figure Mig-15 & F-8x jets to be about s far as you can go with it if you want good flight models.

I'm one of the Fox Four team. I'll have to ask Tom how he did it. I think the missions actually start in the air, a few feet off the carrier deck.

As this is a commercial addon I would expect them to have figured it out.
