Just started flying the VRS Superbug in 5.3 again.

Now acquired the SWS Nimitz vol2 addon, any recommendations for other good naval aviation stuff?

Do you have the link on where to download the V2 Nimitz carrier?

It's payware, available from either SWS themselves or Simmarket.

Ack. I have the Simworks fleet and have yet to figure out how to use it. Since there' an LSO app I'm assuming I can use a usable carrier, even though I have not bought one of the stand-alones. A sim within a sim I'll get around to eventually, I hope. Also their Phantom (still mad there's no manual). Was thinking about the Hornet that's on sale now if anyone has any comments on that. Have not noticed a Chinook for P3Dv5 or a COD.

Depends which one you mean.

The one from justflight, nah, it's not there in terms of fidelity for me, and I tested it.

I have the VRS F18, which is more expensive but provides greater fidelity systems-wise.

Which works best for you is your choice, do your research..

Do you search the freeware Nimitz?

It's a bit slow this site. Maybe better try here

or here in multiple parts

Sorry for not responding sooner, the Nimitz freeware carrier is what I was looking for, thanks.

@kevinfirth evening,

I just stumbled on this thread today. I started attempting carrier landings again this weekend. I have both the superbug from VRS and the Nimitz from SWS. Have you been able to get the TACAN and/or ILS to work? I can’t get anything to show up in the HSI. Pretty sure I have everything set up as it should be, but there there’s also a very good chance I got something wrong as well. 

Thanks in advance,

Colin
