  2. My uncle was contracted from Raytheon by BAE (whatever it was called in the 80s) to create a new UHF array for the Nimrod in the nacelle on top of the tail. The British project manager stipulated that the housing should withstand 26 Gs (yes twenty-six Gs). Why? The rudder pins were rated for 26 G, therefore the UHF array needed to be able withstand 26 Gs. Why, and how the rudder pins rated to 26 G? He couldn't figure that out, but he and his team tried to explain they didn't think the Nimrod would hold up even after 5 Gs, but the project manager was adamant, 26G or he would find someone else. So they went to White Sands to use a centrifuge in the desert (rated for 42 G) and develop a housing that would withstand 26 G (he said a lot of housings disintegrated), but after $800,000+ they managed to create a housing that help up to 26 G.
  3. Thanks seabat! That did it! I also tried landing the F-14 empty, little fuel that worked! Arresting cables do work.
  4. This is a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing!!! I had to fix some .lua stuff in the liveries (glass/anchor/other small textures weren't showing up) and created some other liveries to make it more to my liking. I couldn't figure how to fix the texture for the object in the mission editor. I went back and forth with the different .luas you included and it didn't seem to make a difference. I tried landing an Su-33 a couple times and the arresting cables don't work, didn't think they would, but figured i'd try. Thanks again for this monstrosity I enjoy it! Edit: Arresting cables work!
  5. Bitburg looks great! All the hardened shelters look spot on. Thanks!!!
