Yes and No, You are right with the wires, if their is any time delay i won't work correctly., and the AC will stop out of the carrier area. With Catapult it is less a problem, with answering time delay, i mean it should work. Catapults features need only to know the "starting position" with a more or less value precision: a carrier with 20 km speed does 5.6 meter per second => 0.50 1/10 sec => 0.05 1/100 sec The heading won't be a difficulty, the heading of the carrier is not quickly moving. -- Gérard http://pagesperso-orange.fr/GRTux/ "J'ai décidé d'être heureux parce que c'est bon pour la santé.
