FS2004 Gauges: Carrier Operation Package V2.0
This freeware archive contains a set of gauges, effects and sounds which
you can add to existing military aircraft in FS2004, and enables you to
perform takeoff and approach/landing on aircraft carriers.
It features:
(1): A catapult gauge, enabling a catapult-launch takeoff.
(2): An arrester gauge, enabling a cable trap landing.
(3): A "meatball" HUD gauge, enabling accurate approaches and landings.
(4): A SonicBoom effect (visual and audible) plus controller gauge.
Includes extensive installation/usage documentation, with examples
for several very popular aircraft.
V2.0 of this package contains a large number of additions, like catapult/arrester
zones and a revised HUD; for details, see the included file "Upgrade COP V1.1 to V2.0.txt".
By Rob Barendregt and Doug Dawson, with special input from Nick Needham.
Seems to have a good selection of gadgets for putting together a good cop panel.
One thing I did not like is the documentation was buried three directories, "Gauges/rcb-miljet/Documentation COP V2.0" deep in the zip file instead of being the first thing you see. Egg hunts are not my thing. I was about ready to heave it until I decided to look at every directory.
That said, it isn't a bad package.
