• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Hi to all
I'm making some changes in LFMI -Istres, Le Tube AB - France.
So far so good, except I'm missing an "aircraft arrestor barrier" in down position to put on RWY33 (as it is in real life)
arrest4.jpg

Have search here, on the web, try to look at FSX AI carriers, but no luck :( (OK, call me noob)
By any chance, any of you, know, or have something that looks like this, or can be used to this?
I don't want it to work, just to be there, laid down, as a scenery object.

Thanks
Regards
 
Don't know, but you might want to ask over at Sim-Outhouse where there are a number of mil airport designers like Jim Dhaenens. I think a lot of his stuff is on simviation too.

Thanks for your reply Scott
I've been googling for Jim Dhaenens on the web as well as on simviation, avsim, etc.
Only found complete air bases, have to install one of them, and see if when decompiling can find what I need.
Maybe someone else has another good "shot" and point me to the right track :)

Regards
 
Sorry guys, all I have is a set of E-28's which is basically a cable across the runway with an arresting engine to slow the plane down...generally used with a tail hook.

What is pictured is a BAK-1 setup...a net across the end of a runway that can be remotely or locally erected. The net would have anchor chain or another type of ballast attached to the lower cable. That would be a USAF type MA 1A. If it had an arresting engine on the lower cable that holds the bottom of the net, it would be a BAK-15. That would be a USAF type MA A1 with an MA-5 I believe.

Best,

Jim Dhaenens
 
Thank you Jim

I was hoping that you were the man who could "save" me, but no problem.
You mentioned the E-28, I could use it, but it would not be as real as it is in real life.
All the times I have been in Istres, never see the Arrestor Barrier erected. I don't even know if it works...:confused:
As I said before, I just want a static object, that looks like the one in the photo, in down position :)
I've seen in this forum so many things related to objects, sceneries, aircraft, and so on ...
I'll keep waiting, a little bit more, maybe someone among us decides to make :wizard: an BAK-1 object :p (I don't know how to make scenery objects :()
If not, I'll leave Istres without it.

Anyway, thanks again, for your replies

Regards
