Anyone up for flying a B-25 off an Essex class carrier? Well, there sits the big pig. I'm not sure that I'm in love with this idea. Uh oh, I've got this terrible sinking feeling. Hey! We got the tail damp, but we made it! Cheers! Rick... How about using an escort carrier instead. B-25 takeoff from an escort carrier in IL-2 1946 without any mods. Mission files are in here.

I don't recognize the sim that took the second and third screenshot with the Su-33??
I took it for granted that the first one showing the zero was IL-2 1946??

I tried taking off last night in in a thunderstorm with the B-25 and I kept crashing off the side of the ship. I used the escort carrier and the Essex but I couldn't keep the plane from following the roll of the deck. I even tried letting the AI do it and it did worse than me!!!
It would have looked cool with the cloud cover and lightning if I had ever made it off the deck and into the air. As it was I kept the search and rescue teams busy.
