well there's your problem, you had pogo sticks for landing gear.

I tried but way too late. You can hear the engine rev right before it hits the stack platform. I know you're supposed to go full throttle on touchdown, but I never do.

I'd say thats about the worst out of control crash I've ever seen in the past 7 years or so that I've been flying this sim.
Keep up the good work

"boing" - what a crash!

you should have seen mine. I tried to land on a carrier... with real landing on, no pogo sticks. Arresting hook caught when i noticed 2 things. 1. i forgot to put my gear down 2. there were aircraft on this one. Managed to skid between 2 avangers, but i had no wings, no tail, a dead gunner... yeah, not good.

Ouch! That looks like realistic landing settings to me, I've done the same, the lip of the deck seems to be made from something really quite bouncy....

It is. I even checked to make sure I had not somehow changed it by accident. I was surprised that the gear did not collapse. It's happened (landing gear collapse on hard landing) countless times in 109s (my 'go to' plane.) So i tried a really hard landing on an airstrip in a Hellcat, and it did the same thing; just bounced way up then crashed on return to ground. I guess Oleg added extra strength to the Navy carrier plane's gear like in real world. A bit too much. lol
And the high 'bounce' was caused by hitting the sloped lip of the Lexington class.

L.O.L. always good time and having fun :lol:
Can such landing gear strenght be caused by using Carrier Takeoff mod ?
Are you using this mod and is it the same bounce without it ?
It never happened to me :lol: will have to try with Lexington class ship :lol:
Thanks for funny video !!
Cheeeeers,

I don't know what the deal is, HG. I have no carrier or catapult mods. It's either a bug with regard to damage on that lip, or a conflict with a mod. Or maybe it's just me. I tried several Navy planes and they all did the same. So I tried a 109. I know the gear can't take that impact. But it did. Like the other ...this is full realism - (minus external views/padlocks/map icons.)
Take a ride. lol
