Very first attempt at carrier landing.

[Gunfreak]

So I tried a case 1, I must have done something wrong as I couldn't line up HUD  so after 3 attempts following the hud that almost killed me and had to abort. I eyeballed it,

But I think I came in too fast, I lost track of the speed at the end,  but I'm guessing I came in at 170-190knots, landing starts at 5:09

"Any landing you can walk away from" and all that....

 

I strongly suggest you check out Banklers Case 1 recovery trainer:

And also @Jabbers_ excellent Case 1 tutorial:

Like on the real plan, you'll need hunderds of attempts to get proficient...believe me...

Well the HUD is messed up because you didn't complete your INS alignment. Hence, the LDDI advisories. (INS ATT - inertial navigation system attitude error, INS DEGO - inertial navigation system degraded.)

Once airborne, to fix your INS alignment, if the mission date is after 1986, turn the INS knob to IFA for in flight alignment. You can monitor the status on the HSI. It will take about ten minutes.

The mission starts on the ramp. I assumed the INS alignment was already done.
