I Want One!

Can it be done? And the "grasshopper" actually launches?
Working on some things here - perhaps a new way to make a panel, will know soon.

Seems like there where a few LST aircraft carriers. I like LST-906 setup best as you can just pull the L-4 onto the deck for take off but it has some odd side tanks.

Not exactly an LST "carrier", but interesting!

Now that would be something interesting if it could be done "in-sim" with either FS9 or CFS2.

Grabbed the CFS3 LST and FS04 Cub and made something that kind of looks right.

Wow, that looks interesting!

At least once a week I'm amazed what our creators manage to show us.

Looks absolutely superb, Allen.

Darket texture with some basic detail. Deck textured. Temp Cubs now brown. Replaced guns with more detailed 40mms and add CFS3 LCVPs.

Very interesting part of WWII history. Thanks

Is there anyone that understands how CFS2s [platform.#] works. I really never and and sort of just hit thing tell it worked.

Jumbo image with real L-4s (click twice for full image). Model is just under 32,500 tris with the 4 side mounted L-4s. Without L-4s 9,500 tris.

Since I also fly a (Super) Cub in real life I'm really looking forward to take off from the ship in the simulated one!

Unfortunately I can't help with the Platform thing. I did it once for one of my campaigns, where I modified a merchant ship into a carrier and then put one of Usio's officer figures aboard as an "aircraft", but the only thing I remember is that it was a lot of try and error before it worked to my liking...
