Hello Wing_Z,
That Eisenhower looks very nice! I am thinking of buying AF2, Can you tell me what is needed beyond the default sim to make carrier landings possible? Where can the Eisenhower be obtained? And is there also a WWII carrier for the Corsair to use?
Thank you and best regards,
Stickshaker
Hi Stickshaker,
I can answer some of the questions you have. There is not currently a WW2 carrier, although I expect someone will create one sooner or later. TBH I am not certain about the actual carrier capabilities such as traps and launches, I also need to look in to that. The F/A-18 is a default aircraft and is very nice visually and to fly. There are also quite a number of free addons such as scenery packages (as DLC from the Steam store/Aerofly page) and user created addons such as Point Mugu, the USS Eisenhower and more user created addons.
The Eisenhower can be obtained from the Aerofly forum, along with other scenery objects and repaints.
You will need to register.

Thank you, Scotth6. Very useful. I took a look at the freeware addons and there are in fact several carriers. I see myself acquiring Aerofly FS2 before long.
Best regards,

Bear in mind the sim is a WIP so there's lots of stuff that might be called a placeholder.
Do not expect working carrier ops just yet, but who knows what happens tomorrow?
That's part of the attraction for me.
Anyhow, a few more screens in northern California.
I said above it is stock: it is in fact DLC but free.
This sim handles light better than any I've seen so far.
