 It should work just with the ai... /ai stuff in my earlier post.

Yes. Changed that now.



 Mathias has put all the necessary stuff here:
 
 ftp://ftp.uni-duisburg.de/FlightGear/Misc_maf/carrier/
 
 The code that he sent me works well, but I haven't tried it from that
 location yet.

I applied all the stuff and it worked very well. My first carrier landing
with the FA-18A succeeded already. The gear code is great! It's fun to
taxi over slopes and actually see the aircraft follow them, rather than
strangely sliding up with the nose gear below ground. And the FA-18 is
very well done and has a nice cockpit with nice night lighting.

The only problems I've encountered:

* not really surprisingly, the carrier doesn't replay in replay mode.
  When I watched my landing in replay, the carrier had already moved
  along. Tricky to fix.
* I observed one segfault that I hadn't seen before. The bt, however, didn't
  look like it had anything to do with the new code. I haven't saved the core
  file but will do so if I run into that problem again.

Now I hope that I will soon be able to land the bo105 realistically
on slight slopes ...

I observed that too.
From my point of view, do one by one ...
But help is allways welcome :)

If you see that again, could you please try to find out where that happens?
Thanks!

Stay tuned :)

Sure. Actually, I do know where it happened. I checked the backtrace, and
wasn't thrilled: It was at program exit when freeing property nodes. That's
why I didn't really attribute it to the new changes, although I hadn't seen
that before. It was a failure not to save the core file, but I had run fgfs
in gdb, and this doesn't produce them automatically. Have tried to reproduce
the segfault, but it didn't happen again yet.

 It isn't anywhere in the scenery yet -- just in cvs. You have to add
 it yourself, or replace the saratoga with it. I added this in file
 $FG_ROOT/Scenery/Terrain/w130n30/w123n37/942057.stg:
 
 OBJECT_SHARED Models/Geometry/Nimitz/nimitz.ac -122.590 37.76 -7.0 90

It should work just with the ai... /ai stuff in my earlier post.

 And the whole wire/hook thing will AFAIK not work anyway, because it
 needs Mathias' changes, which are probably only in his branch in the
 JSBSim repository, but not in FlightGear. All just AFAIK, of course.
 

Mathias has put all the necessary stuff here:

ftp://ftp.uni-duisburg.de/FlightGear/Misc_maf/carrier/

The code that he sent me works well, but I haven't tried it from that
location yet.

Vivian
