    Bone,
    Beautiful pics of the VF-161 "Chargers" Phantom! Can you tell me where you can find a phantom that is either native FSX (probably not one out there), or a good port over that has a VC!

    Much abliged.

    Elevator, i have tried the elevator with the F-18 from accelartion add on and i can get it to back onto the elevator but when it goes down and i go to pull off it it drops me into the water.

    The carrier is AI, so you can't see it in replays and when using AICarriers2r2 it's local to each session (it won't come back automatically if you restart the flight).


    This is FUN stuff here...Thank you for the reply works like a charm

    You learn something new everyday.....In the days of old the folks would go to the head of the ship and do their business through a grate into the big blue. Now I know the rest of the story.

    Thanks

    This isn't directed at anyone! Just thought someone might be interested?!

    "Using the Head" comes from hanging you butt over the bow of the ship and doing your business. There weren't any "bathrooms" on board most wooden ships of war. Sometimes they had buckets or boards to sit on. They had hand towels or sponges to wash with afterwards. They'd rinse the towel and take it with them or let someone else use it; not very sanitary! The waves/ocean would wash the poo off the bow but during calm seas the Capt. would make a detail wash down the head as punishment!

    Anyhow you're correct........"I have to go to the head."

    Sorry I'm rambling but the history of Marines serving on board navy ships is a passion of mine. I've been studying about the "Soldiers of the Sea" for a long time. S/F
    If government was the answer, it was a stupid question!

    Everything shows up nicely in FS Recorder except the tailhook
    Is there a workaround?

    Cheers.
