Hello Alistair:

Thank you; Nimitz is placed on my FGv9.9. Some observations, after having
read the "Read Me" file etc: What is the keyboard control for raising and
lowering the hook? When toggling the cockpit instruments, to use the TACAN,
the ADF and DME are not functioning when seeking out the Nimitz. From the
aerial shot, that was posted, it was possible to find her. The ADF is still
functioning for the direction of KSFO and you find yourself heading back
over the hills! One other point is it possible to place the Nimitz in any
other location randomly, like when you choose your start airport, it is
floating in the sea in that vicinity, like it is with the default setting.
As an example, as an ex FAA aircrew (I had used the Seahawk for dummy deck
training at RNAS Culdrose) but was frontline with Gannets (849 sqdn) on the
Ark Royal in the mid 60's etc, but flying training was in Malta. To revisit
these parts with a carrier is what this is all about. The Enterprise, during
Vietnam, located from Subic Bay is another. Helicopters are another
scenario, with Whirlwinds, Wessex Mk3s and later Sea Kings, before being
transferred to the first RN Phantoms when they arrived from the US. This was
the time for me to decommission in January 1972.

Sorry, a little reminiscing here, but I am hoping to use my favourite
workhorse, Concorde, to do circuits and bumps on the Nimitz!

Thank you for your time

Martin
