I really missed the Hawk. So was pleased to see the Goshawk appear.
However, having down loaded and installed it in the DCS/Mods/Aircraft folder with the other ac, it won’t run. On start up DCS tells me it’s not authorised and has been disabled.
Can anyone tell me how it is installed?

I just downloaded and unzipped to Saved games/openbeta/mods/aircraft and it all worked.

Has anyone found a way to hook the Goshawk to the catapult. There is a control to do it, the gubbins on the nosewheel leg moves up and down, but the deck-crew just ignore me.

Which carrier are you using?
There is a key press for the Stennis, and animated crew should call you forwards on the Super Carrier. In multiplayer missions there is a known bug in the Super Carrier sequence, so try single player to get it working.

On the Stennis stop just short of the shuttle, drop you launch bar and hit 'U' - (bind it!) Thats it, full throttle and go...
On any super carrier it seems the update NOW allows full ai interaction IF you have the SC module.. The deck crew will marshall you into position, drop your bar when told, power on to lock, bar up, salute and go. Dont be bashful in full power to lock onto shuttle... if you are right on it then you may have to wait a while to overcome 'resistance' with the lesser powered engines compared to F14 & 18.
Remember when landing, procedure is on speed and full air brake.

OK, I will give it another try. I think I stopped in the correct place, extended the cat hook and hit U. However, all the deck crew totally ignored me. Is it something I said, do you think.
Landings are not a problem, except that the engine seems slow to respond to throttle movements.

You have it back to front alan.... 'U' is for the STENNIS only... On SC the deck crew will guide you forward, tell to drop bar, tell you to power up and hook the bar, tell you to lift the bar, and then you power up salute and go when he gives you the finger...
Bugs excepting re bround crew... but works SP fine with me, MP SC is bugged..

Not quite sure which carrier I was on. I had set up switches for the major control inputs on a land airfield, and did a quick flip from the field. I then selected one of the default missions which spawned me on a carrier. Started engine, then taxied to the catapult, but non of the options worked.
I will look at it again tomorrow.
