Yes, I know that that angled deck AC would work, except for the up-coming F-8 Crusaider it needs to be edited a bit and 200-300 ft longer...

The F-8 will be out soon, so if we have to we will use the Coloussus re-paint, but I'm not positive if she will survive landing

I think this would be a great addition to the game. I installed carrier take off mod for my 4.09 modact and i added the f9f panther and when the panther launched of the catupult it crashed in thr water. So i think this would be wonderful

Not to mention that catapult on collossus doesn't even work at the moment on DBW (though others work).

The F-8 took off in Full Afterburner, when it kicked in it sounded like a huge hammer had hit the deck.  My Avionics shop was on the 02 level right below the Port bow cat on the Constellation.  You always knew when a Crusader was on the Cat.  So the SAS version needs to have full afterburner modeled correctly.
Landings were very fast.  I would like to see the A-4 Skyhawk modeled for the game.  It's a good plane for the graphics and game engine.  You have to remember the USS Midway was modified with an Angled deck and handled modern jets up till she was retired in the late 80's early 90's.  So the Oriskany is fine if an angled deck is put on her.
