Hello,

As a number of you know, I am creating for my local aviation museum, a simulator based on FSX. Our budding pilots will try their hands at various short scenarios, and I would like to add another, but need some advice.

In 1946, a Auster Autocrat G-AERO became the first civilian aircraft to land on an aircraft carrier and I would love to do this as a flight for our visitors to try their hand at. Is there any way that a static carrier with a landable deck could be positioned just off Newquay where the Museum is? The Carrier of course would have to be of WW2 vintage as the real one was HMS Illustrious.

Looking forward to your comments,

Best wishes,

Martin

There are a few ways of doing it, if you let me know what you want I can probably set up the 1944 version of Victorious for you which has the bonus of being the right class of ship anyway.
