Doum76 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Hey all, stupid questiuon here. I tried to find some real footage or on forums if a related thread, but no joy. On night landings, does real carrier have a sorta IR mode for the platcam, do they use it or it's another guidance system used ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoda967 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 This didn't go well, but it does give you a good idea of what the PLAT camera view looks like at night.

Doum76 Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 Thanks Sir. That's how i thoutht real life platcam would look like at night. I presume the LSO station is still a lot WIP and one day the Day/Night knob will be operational so will be contrast, brightness, as for now we can only see the landing light when touching the deck and in the wire.
