Not convenient we chose Vinson because the deck is indeed identical to
Nimitz.

I went with the Vinson because it is spiffier. Everything should
(theoretically) work the same and just as well from the Nimitz. I believe
the deck geometries are identical in FlightGear (conveniently.) ;-)

..and it does not like to T/O and climb on idle power, all Launch!!!
button action I see is wild pre-crash oscillations, the Reset button
tosses me into the cockpit rather than in the camera.
..Curtis, any reason your demo needs the USS Vinson, rather than a
renamed USS Nimitz copy?
..Alexis, any changes to the f-14b since FG-1.9.1?
