Ship.CFG File Tweak - All Essex Class Carriers by Collin Glenndining

To optimize the takeoff and landing positions on the decks of these vessels, make the following changes to the Ship/CFG file in each ship folder and save.

In the flight deck secton, illustrated below, change the first number in TAKEOFF_START and  TAKEOFF_END to a -2.
And change the last number in TAKEOFF_START to -119.   This will optimize your takeoff position on deck and set your takeoff and landing paths down the center of the deck, not the centerline of the ship.
