    Excellent, super detailed lights, bridge, etc. I made a video, to highlight your great attention-to-detail, as well as your superb craftsmanship. Although, I have purchased the Miltech carrier package, quite some time ago, this is an incredible carrier, at any coast. Keep up the great work, Thanks. https://youtu.be/FznIsSnWHXw?si=ZKIAExSfBxJwXz5z

    Y'know, I have Miltech's UK Carriers, which are great, but personally I'd rate this over theirs for 2 reasons besides the swappable CATOBAR upgrade:
    1: The lights are just amazing
    2: You modeled the interior(s) of the bridge(s) and gave it some flavor with active screens. That and the circling heli's just give that tiny extra something, immersion wise

    And that's *without* having access to the hangar yet since I just have the demo version till next week. Which the hangar also has movable doors, something else Miltech left out on their carriers.

    Not for nothing you also have more locations and in parts of the world that they don't, opening up immersion based flights to areas I don't usually get to.

    Also I did notice you have Diego Garcia planned as a location, just FYI Supercarrier Pro has something there too; maybe check they don't conflict/overlap before setting the final location.

    TBH it might be cool to have a kind of 'joint fleet' thing with both mods active

    no worries, we always check the locations so they dont get into conflicts. Making a joint Carrier group is fun and we might add a location which would feature both our carrier and the Miltech supercarrier (currently in planning is a joint task force with the QE and our Trieste Carrier)

    What is the meaning of "marked as a dependency" ? Must the old toolbar be replaced? By what? With the old toolbar, lights /angle don't work, only straight, and a rapid flash when trying angle. (Windows 11, MSFS2020)

    OK thanks for your fast answer. Now, the lights work perfectly. I am positive, the link did not appear on your page yesterday, now it does. May be a refresh problem! I continue monitoring your excellent work!

    There has been a toolbar update this week. - Check the toolbar. This will fix the issue you describe as its one of the fixes.
    The catapult and arrestor code is built into the toolbar - hence why it's a dependency. We do not use the msfs built in arrestor system as it's buggy ( Especially when you're trying to release the cable after you have stopped).

    It requires the toolbar to be open atm for arrestors to work because of the way they are implemented.

    can you make that the arrestor cables work for the default F/A 18

    They already do. You just need the toolbar which is marked as a dependency and it only needs the toolbar to be open for them to work. Will then automatically detect when you catch a wire and slow you down. They work for any jet with a tailhook. They are currently not animated though
