I thought I would start a carrier thread for reference.Please carry it on.

Always remember to read the install instructions because there is always other programs needed to make these detailed addons work properly.

I'll start it with the excellent

Charles de Gaulle found HERE

featuring Rafale by Bruno Â« Thor's Hammer Â» MÃ©relle

Super Cool - Great screens Gav , I have not tried this Carrier, not sure how it works in a Multiplay, Ideal if it dose default 18s would suit others , can you drive this carrier making it working best in MP arena?

I haven't tried this function yet but in the readme it states "The two versions represent the Charles de Gaulle in two configurations which allow deck-landing and catapulting. "Configuration 1" presents a clear deck, particularly adapted to multi-player flights and "Configuration 2" presents a more operational take-off deck with more planes."

I think we need to start easy and go the tried and true , the old WWII carrier CV6 - ideal to entice people to give it a go , I'll install this and see how this one works, for a MP its required to have one operating the ship with a harden deck and place into the aircraft folder for it best to work.

since this is a carrier thread, why not the add the flying stations HMS Victorious to the list, this is the 1960's version which has scimtars, AEW skyriader on the deck, with working cats and cables for full ops

Nice one Hayden, a couple off great framed photo's I had stolen given to me by the guys out at Christchurch s then US Navy base was a photo taken in 1966 of CVA-66 USS America leaving Wellington and the other , not the Victorious but HMS Eagle also leaving Wellington in the late 1960s or may have been 1970 .

Must reinstall a carrier or two....had a lot fun with the fantastic freeware Nimitz.

Is there a freeware Rafale with VC to go with de Gaulle? Also is there a freeware Melbourne and Ark Royal (from the 70s)?

Tho payware also is the gorgeous Team SDB USS Enterprise and incoming is the USS Kitty Hawk with the Tomcat from Areosoft and following and finger crossed Mark Harper's HMS Eagle and that looks a doosie.

That's not the Fouga Magister CM170 but the Fouga ZÃ©phyr CM175 with a modified undercarriage and a hook.

You can find it here (vers 2.2) http://restauravia.fr/html/creations_fsx.html and don't miss the gauge4.1 of RFN here http://royalefrenchnavy.perso.sfr.fr/RFN-Creations.htm
