Need Hornet carrier help

Well, I still haven't got last night's video to work, but I did a quick conversion to put the CS .air file and aircraft.cfg entries into the F/A-18A and I think I'll keep them there. Even with a new and very different joystick to contend with, the end result of the first attempt was...

I'll let the pic speak for itself. Wish I'd done the video of this one. :icon_lol:
 
Thanks for everyone's help: in particular, the recommendations to (a) buy Xload and (b) keep practicing. I wouldn't want to ride down in the back seat with me, but I've hit an inflection point. You practice and practice, the desired result seems no closer -- and then, suddenly, it starts to work. I remember the same thing happening with normal fixed-wing landings and later helicopters.
 
I find keep switching to the outside view when learning to trap a new aircraft, keep your speed down and keep an eye on ya sinkrate good luck!
