very kool indeed, I took that Mike.
Its so neat! The other night I watched a program on Discovery channel about the making of "freedom of the seas" cruise ship and there it is for fs! I also got a car and drove around Heaths NZCH carpark :P

Its sooo slow but sailing is rather fun (not as fun as fying of course) ,are we alowed to log on to IVAO as a ship? :lol: Your filed cruise alt would be a bit low, don't know how youd deal with the ood/even altidude system.... lol

From the IVAO rules and regs;
11.9 - Other land type vehicles or water craft, e.g boats, ships, and etc, are prohibited.

However you can do follow-me cars when you've got your C1 rating. ;)

Very nice Matt.

I really like the colour/texture of that water.

I had been thinking along the same lines as Charl. If two people have say the Helicopter carrier from FS Shipyard. (that way they both see the same thing in the Sim). If one pilots the ship can the other land a Helo on it, assuming it has a harden file on it?

May be a interesting club flight also. One member in say a Sub(on the surface) or a small boat. Then the Orion/Herc pilots do some costal patrols. Just an idea?

ive tryed the recorder module and parking it up then adding one of my landable surfaces there but i just kept boucing through it ,so it will have to be added to the ship model file there is not any other way i can see landing on it other wise ,as for the sub yeah that sounds like a bit of a go for some missions ,
