Hi Jan,
Thanks for your reply. What I'm wondering though is for the FlightGear
Nimitz, what glide slope approach path puts me in the sweet spot of the
FLOLS?
And for whatever it's worth, visually it appears that the landing deck is
offset closer to 8 degrees. That lines me up a lot better than 9 degrees.
But I'd love to know the exact angle for the FlightGear Nimitz model so I
don't have to fudge things and guess.
Thanks!
Curt.
