I would really love the Salute animation for launching off the carrier be put in the game for the hornet just like how it is for the tomcat. We know the hornet already has a salute animation of some sort already in game, because we have seen several promo videos from ED on youtube showing the hornet piloting saluting and shooting off the cat. I personally love seeing the pilot salute from F2 view and the mirror reflections on the tomcat, it really adds more depth of immersion to the sim. Thanks!

And while we‘re at it already…

How about the pilot puts his right hand on the handle (towel rack) at the canopy bow after the salute….?! 
Could be scripted, so that he puts his hand back to the stick as soon as there is weight off wheels…

now that crew animations become a thing…maybe….

The animation for the towel rack is also already somewhere in the code... somewhere

Maybe I am misunderstanding something but salute is there already. I use it for every carrier launch. As the crew guy motions you to wind it up, I have the radio onscreen already selected to deck crew. When I hear the AB kick in I click 'Salute' to get launched.

The topic is about the salute animation.

I think those are AI hornets. That's already in the game (including grabbing the towel rack). Would be cool to have that on player aircraft as well. Love the Tomcat salute in mirror.
