Title: Carrier Elevator
Post by: DCCBOSS on October 03, 2009, 11:53:18 AM: I would like to see the carrier elevator in the up position, it would make multiple planes spawning a little easier especially when the carrier is turning.

And, more than likely, Air operations were not carried out with the elevator lowered anyway.

I should say something negative here.

Oh yeah. Aircraft didn't launch when the carrier was turning. :devil

Raise the elevator.

i don't know about you but i will not participate in this thread any longer!
i saw what happened to Wylie coyote once he found out about gravity!
do not mess up my ability to fly from the cv while turning with the elevator down with the wind, under attack! after all , it is calm seas!
next thing you will want is waves washing over the deck!!!

Catapults during WWII were fairly rare and not favored over a "manual" launch in most cases.
