Shuttle gentlemen, its called a shuttle, and not the type seen at Folkestone or Sangatte either
. Early USN and RN used the bridle attachement method, modern USN use the nose gear launch bar ( RN never did ), but y'all knew that anyway

We prefer to keep things 'technical' whenever possible hence the term 'funny thing on the deck'
Convoy's always travel at the speed of the slowest ship (which I confess never suited me much in the Arabian Gulf during the Iran/Iraq war!!)

I think it would look better with a different aircraft though! The Eagle has landed...almost!
For those of a less 'salty' nature, how about this one, for FSX.....
No release dates as yet for either project.
Now whatever happened to that amazing carrier?

I have been bust re-vamping all my models and the Eagle has undergone major re-work as those images were the FS9 version. I need to solve a couple of problems with the FSX attachpoints to get the carrier movable and I can't seem to find anybody who has achieved this in FSX with FSDS - namely the arrester gear and cats.
I decided to carry on with other stuff until a solution could be found but apart from that it is more or less done.
The Sea Venom is also near completion and I am also just finishing the VC for the Victor (lots of stuff in that) Also nearing completion of a totally new SU 27 models.
Been very busy of late so have not had the time I normally spend on projects but getting back to the old schedule again now.
