Flying Stations Swordfish Cat launch addition

Since Basy prodded re a single line addition to FSX.cfg would tame the cat launch I put together a update to add cat launch with 2 possible methods of doing it but only use one not both.

There is also line to add to the light section to give a indication of the hook up point since it is a tail dragger.

She now launches at 70 kts as it should not 170+ kts.

Rich, I'm surprised this hasn't gotten more attention here. I added this mod to my FSX Cfg file and I went and tested most of my FSX carrier aircraft. I was stunned to see the CAT shots being down to a more reasonable/realistic speed rather than everything blasting down the deck and being 270 kts at the end of the CAT stroke. It works and from my testing, each plane comes off at a different albeit lower speed now. Great job!

Mods, if you read this, this link/file is a very valuable piece of information to help improve FSX Acceleration Carrier Ops. Is there a way it can be moved into a more permanent posting section?
