@lass8649 To use airbrakes/spoilers press the "/" button.

[roaming2]

What's the name of the song?

[nachi250]

mentiroso ponele 100% de realismo sino no tiene gracia

[cappilot12]

@nachi250 Sorry I don't speak Spanish very well, could you translate?

[nachi250]

yes, sorry, you are not plaing in 100% realism, are you?

[cappilot12]

@nachi250 Most of these are trying to show what not to do and this is more of showing what to do in FSX. In real life the approach would start much farther out.

[Vantzyourule]

Ha , I've done it a few times. Its hard , but I can do it if i line up really far out. Its not impossible. But i suck at doing it. I just cant level out and turn really well with directional pad.

[cappilot12]

@Vantzyourule if you can land on a carrier with the directional pad I am damn impressed lol 

[waterattack]

where do you get a carrier in free flight??

[cappilot12]

@waterattack you can use a program called AI Carriers, or they can be at some addon sceneries

[adad2757]

also another common thing i see people lowering ther tailhooks during a catupault launch!

[a100nick]

i can never get the cables to work

[cappilot12]

@a100nick Do you have Acceleration?

[fsxaviator]

how do you lower the tail hook?

[cappilot12]

Press shift and "q" at the same time

[NCOProductions]

skype much haha?

[cappilot12]

Yeah lol

[Cessna154]

Good work!

[HaloZeroFreakBeanboy]

HE SPEAKS, lol

[cappilot12]

thanks

[HaloZeroFreakBeanboy]

where is this carrier?

[cappilot12]

Eagle Simulations: Miramar MCAS Scenery

[HaloZeroFreakBeanboy]

ok?

[cappilot12]

its a payware add on scenery

[TheVFA82]

where can a guy buy a copy ? your place ...?

[Muril02]

I cant take off i press shift + U shift + I and Shift + Spacebar and nothing happens

then i accelerate and i die

[cappilot12]

then most likely you have it assigned for something else and is this in the default acceleration F/A-18?

[HaloZeroFreakBeanboy]

aha i know whats happening, i have had same prob, ill help, im gonna make a video tomorrow, that should help you!

[Legendary588]

can u make a video on how you installed SDK, because i have tried everything

[cappilot12]

I didn't need to use SDK in this and I don't have it installed, I am a beta tester for the Your Scenery payware scenery at Miramar

[Legendary588]

oh,

[cappilot12]

you need FSX Deluxe, put in disc 1 and press the autorun button

[Legendary588]

yea, after a while ( a looong time ago) i just gave up

yes, i have Deluxe and Acceleration

[cappilot12]

just put in the disc, open the folders inside, open the SDK folder on disc 1 and run that installer

[Legendary588]

I know, I installed it (both types) and i went to App Data and i changed everything to false... when i start up FSX, nothing is in the tool bar

[cappilot12]

I don't have anything on the toolbar either, I just need the BGLComp and model.xml's for scenery and aircraft

[Xynomavro]

I have the same problem

[res784]

what qualifies you to teach carrier landings?

[cappilot12]

What qualifies you to say that I can't teach carrier landings? I mean we aren't proffesionals but if we have a skill or talent we should use it, I mean in everyone of his videos Cessna154 says he isn't a pro yet most people listen to him anyway.
