Madadog that is brilliant now there is no reason to not be able to land on the big "T"

Sludge the lifeboats are the least of my problems.... whose bright idea was it to put 4 massive steel funnels in the middle of my runway 
WAVE OFF WAVEOFF!! 

[Orion]

Yep, as Duncan described, that is normal.  The minimum speed that the FA-18's HUD will display is 48, so that's what Jivko set in the improved HUD.  You shouldn't subtract 48 or anything.  If you want to know how fast you're going under 48 knots, you can use the Shift+Z information .

Simon: It would help if you lowered your gear .  "Wave off, bolter, pull up!... oh no..."

and have it ripped off by one of the funnells ..not a chance 

[Madadog]

Here's an interesting fact about the Titanic's funnels; the fourth funnel (closest to the stern) was not operative, but was included to make the ship appear more powerful. It was actually used as the ship's dog kennel.

Sludge, I'll send you the repaint files once I do them. I'm not much of a repainter (hence why I'm known as Madadog), but I'll try and whip something up.

But I have found this image at Wikipedia:

Really? I found several links.  

[Orion]

I won't be present for tomorrow's carrier ops fun (Feb 20), so Don and Adam will be available to help set the Skype call and the flight up.  So in place of me, wait for a Skype call from either Don or Adam and I'm pretty confident they can lead it from there.

Have a good flight everyone .

Edit: Oh, right, almost forgot to add this: they should give you my little mission compatibility program to run and you should be set from there - no more internal errors.

[Madadog]

Yep, Don and I (Adam) will be on Skype and FSX to make sure everything goes down without a hitch. Orion has sent me everyone's contacts (that I didn't already have added), so Don and I will create a conference call to get things rolling. Orion has sent Don and I an application that will ensure everyone is running the same version of the carrier mission, so we'll provide that once people are in the Skype call. If you want to be added to the call/flight, and you haven't received a Skype contacts request from Don or I, add us to your contacts list (my username's below, and Don will post his here soon) and we'll add you to the fun.

Hoping for a good turnout in Orion's absence. He will get a tardy slip.

I will push a "compatability" fix from Orion that will get all the mission differences eliminated.

[Sludge]

Ill be there around 1pm...

Along with getting people Orion's compatibility program, I will send out two versions of the Sludge Hornet, on Skype.  That way, once installed, we can simply agree to select the FX Hornet for 4 or less players (causes too much frame rate loss w/more than 4), and players can choose it in the FSX aircraft selection screen.  Or if we get a big turnout, we can select the Basic version w/out the smoke and Hi-G effects...

Also, will be there to help anybody who still get the multiplayer errors, after running the compatibility program.... if needed.

Later
Sludge

[Madadog]

Good to have you onboard, Sludge. That's a good idea, having two Sludge Hornet versions.

[Razgriz]

I'm also gonna try it again around 1pm PST.

[sonofabeech]

Hopefully I will be there ...if not on time then maybe a bit later
