maybe you haven't launched off the cv in a 24 or lanc lately. to launch, i now have to reverse to the back of the ship, full flaps and engines, and FLOAT THE WHEEL OVER THE ELEVATOR SHAFT!!! :O!!! then, of course, the whole plane slows down, and it stalls off the pad. if you dont do this right, you lose a wing on the conning tower, lose a wing in the shaft of the elevator, just trust me, it's a pain.

Take off at an airfield then bg108.  Carriers are great HTC!  :aok  Nothing to fix here.

     I believe the real Essex class had elevators in the flightdeck, not off the side..so count yourself lucky  :D

oops, I was half right..some on the side and some in the deck...

well, i like the new carrier design, it looks nice. however, who came up with the screwy idea of the elevator being in the deck :huh? i was trying to fly larger aircraft off the cv offline, so i have not even tried to land yet, which i can do upside down sleeping. however, when i tried to take off, THE D-MN ELEVATOR GOT IN THE WAY!!! of course, no when i take off, i have to reverse all the way back, and on all bombers, i now have to use full aileron left to clear it, and i can no longer take off lancs, so i can imagine it must be hard for the noobs who try to land carrier-base aircraft and nose into the elevator and break off the wing and slide any kills they got into the drink. who designed the cv? i would love to see that elevator gone.

That's like complaining masturbation is no longer fun after you started dating a porn star! :rock

To  Bq(@^,

Keep your bombers off my carrier.  That is all.

------------------------------- -

I LOVE the new carriers and their design.  What I would like to see, is a carrier that is affected by the ocean.  Make the CV something a land lover lose his cookies over :D  Oh, yes… a LSO too :)

Not to be mean but a few "Battle 360"said that,"you landed on the front to put in the hanger decks and be repaired and brought up in the back.

no, you try sinking a cv with one of your puny, pathetic tbm's. 1 bombload on a cv distracted by a wasp nest of smaller planes is going to sink the cv.

For the record...the TBM carries a 2000lb max bomb load. It takes (myth) 12K to kill a CV.
