Hi All.. A problem surfaced while using the FA-18C on either Flight Deck 4 or 5 in FS9. I started with Flight Deck 5 and the FD5E carrier and chose the FA-18C Hornet. The plane comes up on deck normally and I decided that rather than use the engines to position the aircraft in front of the blast screen I hit the "Y" key to position the aircraft manually. All went well, the aircraft was positioned and the brake was on. I then hit the "Y" key again and the aircraft immediately took off. I did the same thing again with other aircraft carriers and it took off immediately when pressing the "Y" key. This is the only aircraft that exhibits this problem in Flight Deck 4 or 5 and other carriers as well and I cannot figure out what the problem is. I wonder if anyone else has run into this problem.
