View Full Version : FSX question

I recently got FSX gold, and a couple planes for it. I'm wondering if anyone knows of any mods, or payware that let other planes fly in formation with you, and any that bring life to the military bases. Also any that let you take off and land on carriers without being in missions. (Besides Flight Deck 5)

You could have a look over here (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=115971) and follow the links provided. Don't use any mods myself, so I don't know of any myself.

Do not underestimate it, and know what you get. tecncially, the module is well-done, but formation flying in a sim is extremely difficult (as in reality, I suppose...) - I know it from the F2004 version, and although the F-5 flies nicely, I terribly sucked at the formation flying part, and gave it up.

Go to Avsim.com or Flightsim.com. Their file libraries are huge, and a bit more legit than simviations. Sim is known to steal files from authors without their permission.

There isn't payware that makes AI fly after you besides Patrouille Suisse?

Holy Crap. Carrier landings are hard. I've died atleast 30 times.

The wingmen do not fly after you - you fly with them, and it is your job to keep in their formation.

The other way around would be too easy... :lol:

It is the original show program the real formation performs, btw.

This should probably go in the helo/flightsim section, so I'mm gonna move it there.
