I have found the golden key to carriers in Free flight of FSX Acceleration! It requires SP1, and only has working catapults and arrestor cables if you have acceleration. The link: http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=111605 ! you bring up the menu by pressing Shift+U ! you can land and take off from it, and the instructions on how to take off are the same as the missions. --S.V.D.
