I was wondering if it's realistic that having a hornet on cat 2 blocks other pilots from using cat 1. As it stands, the deck crew orders other aircraft to hold position behind cat 1 until they launch the jet from cat 2. This used to be possible before the deck crew was added.

Are they both Hornets? If so it sounds a bit buggy as the inverse works fine. If there's a Tomcat or E-2, though, the crew thinks the wingspan is larger than it actually is and won't hook you up to the shuttle.

One of my deck configs has CAT 2 blocked (only with Hornets) and i placed statics in a way that the aircraft take off only from CAT 1, 3 and 4. No issues for me. I´m not at home so i can´t post the pic of my deck so you can take ideas or copy the config so you can recreate it. Later when i arrive home i can post the pic here. 

Never tried with Tomcats or E-2C, probably the issue is the wing span as Nealius mentioned.

Both Hornets. The inverse works fine.

That's not what I want to do. I want to be able to use all cats. I can't block cat 2.

Ah ok, sorry.
