Pretty dame sweet.

Oh Yes! Very nice

Well, it's STOVL isn't it...? Shouldn't be that hard then. Will take some getting used to ofc.
Looking forward to this though

I wonder if the modified carrier will be making any other appearances...

Awww yeah, this is gona be awesome, now i need to buy a joy stick.

As mockingbird said, isn't too hard really. The hardest part is judging when to engage the throttle mode so you don't overshoot the carrier or find you've got into a hover too soon and have to spend ages nosing forward

But with some practice and if you don't try to rush things its all good

beautiful, though I expected something vertical;)

or is it common practice to get VTOL only when landing?

Ye, vertical landing is how pretty much all landings on a STOVL carrier done, although there are now and again a few Shipborne Rolling Vertical Landings (SRVL) which is basically the jet landing a bit like a normal plane on a runway, but has its nozzles pointing down but still going at a bit of speed so its wings are crating some lift, which enables it to bring back more weapons/fuel than normal but requires the deck to be clear of all aircraft so the jet can roll to a stop in a few meters, where in a vertical landing only one landing pad needs to be clear, which also enables multiple aircraft to land at the same time.

While it is just about possible to do an SRVL ingame, its a bit tricky as you need to balance your throttle quite a lot to get it right and timing is a bit key factor too.

Woulda thought editing the carrier model breached some form of copyright law no? Other then that i would say this looks pretty sweet, despite the fact i cant, and never will, fly XD

nice just add a little ramp to the US war ship to make it in to a European War ship very clever

Well to start off with I haven't edited anything, other than the textures as the ramp + other tweaks are only additional objects, saves having to do a massive amount of fixing, re-modelling and re-exporting but you can edit the BF2 models, providing the edited versions stay in BF2.

Loving the STOL Sea Harriers, but maybe Rhino should invest some of his coke and hookers fund into a computer that doesn't double up as a toaster oven

If your referring to my sound being crappy ye I've got it on low as I have an XFI card and I haven't bothered going though uninstalling the buggy drivers and installing the new ones as I plan to install the good ones after I format which I plan on doing sometime soon

Oh god don't remind me of that mess, I tried desperately to actually make X-Fi work on my prelude for about a week but it still bluescreens on BF2.

I say good sir, my pants have become taught!

very awesome!
