Looks like the virtual FSX ocean is going to have it's fill of CVL's
I was going to wait until the animated LSO was finished, but with the release of Alberto Garcia's CVL 28, I thought I should put up some WIP images of our own CVL, the USS Monterey CVL-26, which was used as a training carrier in the Gulf of Mexico during the 1950's.
This model will have a lot less detail than Alberto's model. It's primary goal is to provide a carrier for landing our tail hook equiped SNJ. There will be a player controlled version and an AI version.
One screenshot shows our AT-6D during an early test. Even without tailhook or arresting cables modeled, it was pretty easy to land and take-off when the ship was following a recorder module "flight."
On the player controlled version the LSO will have animations so that he can give some basic signals to the planes as they come aboard.
