Hey, I'm so fired up about 1.05 (That Seafire is so cool!) I am sharing this terrain with you guys. It is really just a terrain I use to test new `airfield' layouts.
It has some airfield bugs in it, but not anything that will stop you from using it in H2H.
The main reason I put it here, is because airfield 5 is desgined to simulate an escort carrier deck (One of the smaller carriers). As such, you can launch from it, and I have landed a Corsair on it without arresting gear. What you have to watch out for is that I made the `airfield area' 120 ft alt. This is so that when you launch you can sink a little. However, that means that the water around the airfield slopes upward, so don't fly into it (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) . Of course, I can't mimic you guys flying into the fantail as a result, but we will get to do that soon enough.
BTW, I recommend you set the following:
.wind 0 180 30 0
to mimic a 30mph Wind over the deck when you practice carrier quals.
Enjoy!

Update: I didn't realize the base numbers weren't showing up on this map. The Carrier Qual Base is the Southern most base. It will be probably be the first Rook Base you would show up at.

Awesome Sundog. The factory always makes a good conning (sp?) tower. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) I took off and landed first time too, I'm elite. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
Edit: try this setting .wind 0 180 127 0
Feel the burn! Really challenging, and try dogfighting with it, kind of interesting (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Also, try taking off with that setting. I had myself a VTOL DHog!

Here is an updated file that adds the city terrain textures under the high rises near a6 (If your puter can handle the Frame Rate hit (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) )

Only 10 fps, still playable. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) The zeke is really light...I couldn't get it off the ground without putting it half way through the 2nd floor of that building.

Beware the flesh eating sheepfish if you abort the CV landing and end up in the drink.
