Hi guys,

I placed Nimitz (v098a) in my local harbour (Wellington, New Zealand) at -41.246433 LAT, 174.886783 LONG, heading 198. The took off from NZWN on runway 34.

Very enjoyable flight except the deck of the Nimitz under FGv098a doesn't seem solid. Was only using the Cessna 172P does this make a difference?

encourage you to try this scenario... see a bit of New Zealand too...LOL.

Cheers
Dene

Hello Georg:

Thank you for this offer and, yes, I would like to be able to use it. As for
no response, It was more like not understanding.

Martin, I have to excuse for my very bad English, *you* were not meant with this as we always worked good together and solved your problems :-)
It was more a general problem with offers to the user public, forget about

..

Can I place the Nimitz in European waters?



Yes, I placed it near Bremerhaven (EDWB) though it might be a little narrow for such a big ship:

(and I ruined the engines of the BO105 when taking this snapshot as I overtorqued them to get quick into the right position :-/ )
You may place the carrier anywhere you like it:

This is a cut out of niemitz_demo.xml with the *Lat/Lon* of Bremerhaven and the right *heading*:
 ...   <solid>Elevator-3-Deck</solid>
       <solid>Elevator-4-Deck</solid>
       <latitude>53.57</latitude>
       <longitude>8.48</longitude>
       <speed>10</speed>
       <heading>300</heading>
       <rudder>0</rudder>
       <turn-radius-ft>4000</turn-radius-ft>
       <flols-pos>
...
Under Windows you should edit the XML file with right-mouse-click-> open with -> "word pad mfc" if you don't have a xml-editor. Search for <latitude> ... and edit the numbers. It is easy. But as already mentioned you have to prepare the preferences.xml file, see the other mails you have got from helpful souls.

More to come this late evening.
Regards
Georg

Look forward to hearing from you soon.

With Kind Regards

Martin
