Hi Javier ,
thank you for your nice comment!
Btw I'm interested in having your feedback on animated elevator because some simmers have issue with the hardened surface...Regards Sylvain

One of the very best carriers made for FSX. Only comment is - as per the warning in the Readme - I could not land with crash detection on without a building crash. Similar problem with the Clem and Foch. I can sometimes manage the landing on the latter but get a crash when catting off either the side or bow cats. I know many do carrier ops without crash detection on but for me it loses a lot of the challenge and fun!

Hi Expat,
Sorry for my late answer but there a in between solution to the situation you're pointing at : keep "Detect crash and damages" checked but check also "Aircraft stress causes damage " but uncheck "Allow collision with other aircraft".
Then any "bad" landing will generate a crash, but FSX will not fire a crash when rolling on the flight deck...
I think it is a good compromise.
Let me know if it is OK for you too?

Regards,
Sylvain
 
Thanks

Wonderful addon, downloading it now--- and the Etendard and the gauge also.

Thanks

Salut Sylvain!

Well, I have been using CDG now for a while in the Med and flying the VRS F-18, I can say, the elevator works nicely and the plane can be transported up and down. It appears though, the elevator only supports the aircraft standing on it when the RFN gauge is powered - meaning there is avionic power on the aircraft, which is a bit tricky on the Superbug. But I managed to bring the aircraft below decks and back up! Very nice hangar, btw! My compliments, great ship!!!
