FSX T-45 Goshawk

Just a heads-up.
New T-45 Goshawk by Dino Cattaneo is up at Avsim.
Requires FSX Acceleration pack as it uses the F18 HUD & MFD gauges.
Screenshots shown above are the ones that come with the package, resized down to 800px
Flies nice and looks good, though I think it seems a bit narrow

First class freeware, just a shame that you have to buy the MS add-on though!

To be honest if you haven't got Acceleration, you're probably missing 90% of what the plane is about anyway as it's perfect for carrier practise. I think my abuse of Mr Piper's creation for that was going to end in tears!

Indeed, it's great fun practicing carrier landings. It's nice to have a tailhook that works without some complex gauges, too.

You guys are soft... you mean you haven't landed Mr.P's proper Hawk on the Ark? You can do it if your careful.... now getting airborne again might be tricky

Roll rate is really poor....go into .CFG and change the aileron_effectiveness under................[flight_tuning] to 20.0.........much more realistic in my opinion......
I think its a cracking model though......doesn't sniff of a port over either....

I have, I just fear for the undercarriage!

Tony, its not a port over, its a full blown SP2/ACC SDK model, has to be for the required carrier animations and hooks to work in FSx, certainly looks the part and the price is right
. Mind default carriers are woefully inept in there accuracy LOL, but if you squint hard enough there acceptable until something better comes along
.
Best
