FlightGear - Nimitz sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge

A few days ago I tried to steer my Nimitz aircraft carrier in FlightGear flight simulator, and it went quite well! I managed to steer it to the Golden Gate Bridge in the San Francisco bay and sail past Alcatraz. Pity enough my aircraft crashed before sailing under the second bridge :-P

@crazycamcorderfan14 Nice! Maybe you could make a video about it, I'd love to see it ;-)

[TheFish070]

hey mate, How to fold up your wings

[samueII]

what joystic/controller do you use?

[fyajsp]

how did you get on the Golden Gate Bridge ?

[crazycamcorderfan14]

yea.. that figures... and the two grummans, it was an example

[osjcag]

Yes I was in 'control' of the carrier ànd the plane. The carrier is always there in FlightGear, whether you manipulate it to steer by changing the wind-direction or not, it's there ;-) You don't really steer it via the keyboard or mouse, but you change the wind-direction via the top-menu.

The aircraft was controlled the usual way: using the arrow-keys/mouse/joystick. There was only one grumman actually (where did you see the second one?), I downloaded it from: flightgear • org */* Downloads

[crazycamcorderfan14]

Well, I'm not sure, but, I propose that you were in control of the carrier and the plane. if you were, how did you get two models (E.G: two grummans) on together, if you were not,... i dunno

[osjcag]

Sorry, I don't really understand that question. Two what at the same time?
