Landed, then green deck, positioned behind a catapult, requested launch, ground personnel went to launch positions, but the taxi director does not give any hand signals no matter how I position my self behind the catapult. Tried again and again. Whats wrong?

Assuming you are the last (or only) one to recover, make sure to request launch via radio menu before taxiing behind JBD. It still issue with cats 1&2 use 3&4. I had it once or twice and the above works 100% of time for me now.

I think you have to request launch before getting near the JBD. If you are already too near or in front of the JBD, it doesn't sense you crossing the JBD and then it doesn't "see" you.

Yes, i'd observed the same (F-18 SC Cat 1 mission in the Persian Gulf map). 'Request Launch' gets teams sent to all 4 catapults but only 3 & 4 will only bother to actually get you set up and launched.

Another run of the same mission I ended up (think it was on my 3rd trap) with the radio telling me to hold position repeatedly every time I tried to taxi back to the catapult for another go, and even the crews on 3 & 4 were not interested that time in getting me set up for launch.  I ended up just restarting the mission so no huge inconvenience, but there didn't seem to be any way to move forward without the restart.
