I've been testing the carrier stuff with YASim. It usually works, but a occasionally the deck isn't solid, and the ac falls right through on landing. This bug is intermittent: I have been unable to reproduce it reliably, or identify the conditions under which it occurs. Only twice in 20 or so landings. The old bug persists with the launchbar - when you take off from the carrier and return the launchbar sometimes re-engages itself without the need for the L key to be operated. Perhaps that's a feature not a bug. Wait ... I had a hand in that code ... I'll look at it. I might get time later to download Gerard's F8 and try to reproduce his reported bug.
