The wake is fine on Ark Royal. Not noticed it off-centre before.

You get more of an off-centre effect on conventional carriers with angled flight decks. There's always a temptation to fly down the wake which is the wrong place to be!

No such problem with Ark V

To be fair in the case of the I class you are supposed to fly parallel to the wake on approach, its just that when you get alongside you find the ship is sailing a few degrees off to port from the direction she is pointing.

One of the numerous Air Shows in the 80s. Small airfields those days invite attractive guests, also military as for example static (Chinook) or flying displays (Harrier).

Dave, this is ETSB Hahnweide in southern germany, a small glider airfield nearby Stuttgart. As usual, lots of small airfields hosted airshows once a year. Mostly helicopters - and for sure - the Harrier, because of the way to use short or no runways.
I added some library objects and a few models of the coming RAF Gutersloh scenery to get an Air Show feeling.
It's fun to fly at small Air Shows, because you have no complicate starting procedures, short distances to fly and you can do flights with lots of different aircraft and helicopters...

Sri Dave but that doesn't work for me on any level. I'm obviously not the arty type

Once you've reworked an existing Kit so you know what goes where it gets easier.....though changing all the specs and alphas took a while......
....a 'real one' ...

Of course...this one's a pain....text crosses the cuts both ways.... takes a bit of aligning....

 

[Jafo]

It's all fun...

Bit of a 707-ish theme...."Jett Clipper Enola" ...
