FSX Screenshots Here!!

i fell for it hook line and sinker too! In the 25 plus years that I have been playing with msfs, I have only downloaded only one scenery add-on. but when I saw that photo, i made up my mind it was time to get into scenery big time.... then I read the rest of the story.

Oh well.

I've tried this years ago in Fs8, lets see if I can recreate it in FsX...:



Didn't land it there, I don't think that would work, so I flew a helicopter in and switched to the C-17. 20% fuel load, no cargo and only the two pilots on board.

Wing clearance might be a problem:



Full throttle, release the brakes, fortunately it didn't register a crash with either the parked aircraft or the tower, nearly scraped the tail on the deck after leaving the carrier, almost got my wheels wet, but:



:icon_lol:
 
Amazing! Especially seeing that the carrier was stationary.

Now the Navy guys will be bashing you for calling it the tower!:icon_lol:

It's called the "Island".

Yes, I had stopped the carrier to save the flight with an aircraft on deck and forgot to get it moving again. The extra 20 knots would have made it a bit easier.
