No any carrier landing? 
I found small graphical bug with Right aileron. I hope it will be fixed too.

). Gonna re-install FD6 with 3wireX tonight and try it again (and again, and again etc.). Yep, been having a lot of that with this one myself. I use RCBCO gauges. Traps improved, with er, um, practice, but in particular not applying the brakes AND slowing the KIAS down as far as possible (90 knots?) AND ensuring the wings are as perfectly level as possible, otherwise I am getting a nasty "slingshot" effect where the plane is hurled rearwards after stopping and then rolling and crashing into the deck. Have also seen that trial and error with altering the tailhook length can improve matters.

Ok, I did some tests with landing on default carrier - too same. Something wrong with hook or front gear and I always had crash (did too same with F-18, default model, and no problem). Speed near 100-110 is ok for F9F, less we have a stall. After when Panther catches a cable, front gear has a crash. It looks like this:

I saw too The bridges at Toko-Ri http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bridges_at_Toko-Ri , the movie on 50' years style but many real scenes with F9F. I recommend watch if someone likes flying Panthers.

Think I will have to get this; I have the Vertigo Hellcat and it is awesome!
I am in the middle of reading "First Man"- the bio of Neil Armstrong who amongst more famous Grumman products (the Lunar Module!) also flew the F9F in Korea; a very inspiring book and a must-read!

Ok, I did some unofficial patch for carrier landing - please to put this line in Aircraft.cfg of F9F:
point.0 = 1, 11.66, 0.00, -5.60, 1100, 0, 0.55, 60, 0.15, 5.50, 0.60, 3, 5, 0, 120, 150
in [contact_points].
No problem on the deck (default carrier and Nimitz), You can land with speed 100-110.
For Ark Royal is ok, but I noticed problem with cables. Must test some of configurations.

They will be done when they're done. Contrary to belief they are being worked on.
Why would you want to play the comparison game ? it wont achieve a thing by doing so.

So when will the Bearcat and Panther patches be released? I don't want to play the comparison game but these patches are coming awfully slow...
