Impressed you can get parked (AI or scenery objects?) aircraft on a moving carrier. Is it difficult to do?

It requires a bit of patience! I used SAMM to make two static aircraft. Then I eliminated the animations of the static aircraft with ModelconverterX. I also used ModelconverterX to merge the model of the carrier and the aircraft. The placing of the models is trial and error.

Nice. Is this in P3Dv5?

Tricky repaint this one. I don't think they had in mind that the back of the canopy could be repainted other than gray.

I like a challenge.

Taking a page out of Cee's book, i'm beginning to populate SWS Coral Sea with my own deck layout with aircraft from CVW-15, 1973.

Great work guys and so good to see that these "older sims" continue to be improved by the community - particularly in the niche area of retro carrier ops!

Sure, I even googled the plane. It seems this is not a genuine FJ-3, but an airforce variant with hook. It should have a little higher front gear I think.

Immediately, but it was’t hook, it was the tail that “said” something was amiss to me!

I now have a "Whale" keeping the "SLUFFs" Company. Got to get his parking squared away.

You just can’t beat the “gray and white” USN for colorful markings!
