Yorktown Class
Which Yorktown class do you intend to do? Angle-deck Essex carriers or WWII Enterprise/Hornet/Yorktown class carriers?

All test done
I finished with the test in PREPARD3D and FSX at this point the changes for FSX are done, the differences are only one elevator can be use to go to hangar deck, in FSX version, yesterday i add a wire trap gauge, only to know the number of the cable trapped in the landing and made some changes in the night textures, now i start with the install instruction for the pack

the plans at the moment are, ENTERPRISE cv-6, John F. Kennedy cvn-79 and the update of cvn-78, although I'm still not sure if CV-6 or CVN-79 will work first, or projects in parallel maybe

Hi - looking good.
Am wondering why in the last round of night shots, the light neither illuminate the static aircraft, nor those in turn cast a shadow under said light.
Again, just curious - otherwise, it's coming along nicely.

the pic is from FSX, in another angle the light illuminates the aircraft better, but not with the same quality as in P3D

My dad served on the Roosevelt in '57/'58... Would love to see that boat
after finishing the models that I have already programmed, i see the Midway class, thanks for the idea !!!
Do you mean John F. Kennedy CV-67 ??, CVN-78 & 79 and the new Enterprise CVN-80 is basically the same Ford class ships, would think just the hull #'s would be different for those.
Released
After several months and a lot of help from the forum members who have collaborated with me through photos and information about the aircraft carriers, they are finished, I really appreciate this help since it allows me to detail the models to the real ones, the package contains an installer for FSX and P3D, the main difference of FSX being the night lighting that is less detailed and that only 1 elevator can be used to descend to the hangar deck(Number 4), in FSX it was presented in a few cases that the platform of the elevator is crossed by the aircraft and falls into the sea, but I preferred to leave the possibility of using the hangar deck to eliminate it completely in the FSX version, since this fault does not occur in all cases, these include the following animations
This package presents the tree models of the class, in different periods of time and AIR WING on deck

-USS AMERICA 1970
-USS CONSTELLATION 2003

Agree! Walter, this is truly fantastic - and my sim is FSX. I can only imagine what P3DV4 looks like.
One question - perhaps it is me, but there does not seem to be any difference between the "Landing" deck layout and the "Takeoff C" deck layout - on America. Haven't yet tried Connie or Kitty Hawk.
Great work, and many thanks.

Right, still very positive on this - very nicely done. Even from your screenshots, the "Landing" config and the "Takeoff C" config appear to be the same configuration. If that was intended, that's fine, just drawing it to your attention if it was not.
Also, i noted the absence of A-6's from VA-165 - were they supposed to be included?
Again, Walter - this is truly a superb effort and thanks again.
Cheers, Deke
