I must have an old manual. I can't find a damn thing relating to carrier ops.

I figured out launching is performed by hitting the break key?

The tail hook is "h".

The Tomcat has no flight path indicator?

Landings have been SLOPPY so far. I guess the sim does not seem to model collisions, thankfully

There is no communicating with the boat? I was trying to land it it started turning

But, I killed a whole mess of planes on my first mission so, that was fun Inside of 10 Miles a Mig-23 gave up trying to run away and turned back towards me. Right as my RWR lit up, my 9 Mike slammed home and trashed his SARH shot. Neener neener

Also, I hear the camera noise but this place...

Thank you, Sir

Ooookay. You using SF2NA? Which tomcat are you using, cause the NA F-14 does not have a RWR bearing screen, just an indication in the top right and audio.

Launching is done via hitting your wheelbrakes key. Be sure to be at military or max power when launching and pitching up...

Tomcat has a flight path marker when landing and taking off, at least using stock TW F-14. Also an ILS. When did you try to start landing? Did you follow the waypoints or skipped them?

And yeah, obviously not the greatest carrier landing simulator.. :P

The SF2NA Tomcat sure has RWR bearing system, when the RWR detects radars then look at your radar MFD.
When a sam or AAA is tracking or locking on to you you can see from what direction on your radar MFD.

My best regards, Kodiak.

when you hit the last waypoint the hud changes modes.

Thanks all.

Anyone have a screenie showing which symbol is the flight path marker?

Thanks again!

-o-

it should be a simplified ILS display on the HUD,

Launch off the Carrier, ALT-N to jump, press W until the only waypoint left is the final approach/landing waypoint. press ALT N again, and you'll jump to a position just before you begin final approach, engage autopilot, and wait, as soon as you hit the waypoint where auto pilot drops gears, hook, flap, you'll notice the HUD display change, you'll have a horizontal bar and a vertical bar.
