This was a fun one. Another short mission with simple goals. Get the plane on the deck. I tried to follow the guidance in the briefing…but ended up wide and long. I don’t know that there is a way to hook back up to the catapult in YAP (or SF2) so it is a one shot deal unfortunately.
I did get my SmoothTrack/OpenTrack software working…so I have head tracking available now.
The F-8 bleeds speed pretty quickly in turns and takes some power to stay on speed once you get all dirtied up…
The IFLOLS is pretty useless. I did not really notice any actually movement of the yellow ball relative to the datum lights. Seems pretty much fixed…
Caught a wire on my first pass though…so I was happy with that…!
Taxiing out of the landing area to the parking area…
I’ll mention it again (for about the hundredth time) - Strike Fighters 2 would be the absolute perfect mid-tier sim if it had VR and multiplayer. The graphics are good enough…and the gameplay is fun. Oh what could have been…
