Well if you do that then we could a P-51 and C-130.
Is anyone keeping track of what campaigns I need to start up?

Seems this is SADave's mess :idonno
Oh yeah! Sho' is All SA Dave's doing!! :evil: :evil: :drinks
As much as I like an P38 I dont think they flew off or landed on a ship or directly from the ocean so they aint really sea going then are they.
Looking at it the Taildraggers campaign got in first This one should start early some time next year and last a year So back into Bob's corner Mwhuhahahaha :evil:

I do know the P-47 has flown off the carriers & I think the P-51 as well...

Actually.....when i worked at Lockheed martin, they had several pics on the walls of a C-130 that landed and took off from a carrier! Granted, it was test mode, but it did happen.

Ok,this has gotten beyond dumb. :huh:
Just because it was transported by a ship does not equal operating at sea .
You guy just let me know if you come up with a sea campaign :idonno

OK, Executive Decision. Tail Hook campaign will go ahead, we'll figure out the date later.
I'll merge these two threads.
The aircraft in question, any navel aircraft, including land based or just aircraft that operate from a ship? Amphibious?
With all this discussion about this we better have 100% completion!

To SA Dave - sorry did not mean to "Muck up the waters" I took this to mean "any aircraft that operated off a carrier on a repeat basis."
Lots of odd things have been landed or launched FROM carriers, some a fair number of times, but that does not mean they SHOULD be considered. Again, sorry.
TO MP - "NAVEL" aircraft? You men the kind that have a belly button?????
I can't merged two threads with Polls. So we're going with Tail Hook, Right?

Can we start this the 1 st of the month ? Frankly I'll get bored waiting if you go much further and will be doing something else.
Cheers, Christian B)
Like you don't do Navy aircraft all the time...
I guess so. Don't think we have anything scheduled now.
Ok I started the "TAILHOOK CAMPAIGN" back in 2011. My intent was a build that would be about aircraft that operate from a carrier "NOT" being transported on a carrier, "NOT" just taking off from a carrier(p-40-b-25), "NOT" landing on carrier in an emergency(ARVN hueys from vietnam), "NOT" Apollo space capsules, "NOT" Japanese army aircraft crashing into a carrier, and "NOT" some sailer chucking a wrench at a passing plane, just planes/helocopters you know the ones that live and work on a carrier. SEEMS PRETTY DAMN SIMPLE TO ME! Quit debating a subject just to hear the keys click. If you don't have any carrier planes that's ok don't join, but please stop trying to fit what you have into a build. If you're just debating..... well we got a way to fix that.
are we clear now?
