Is the a mission in the D/L section where i can fly hornets or EA6B's off of a carrier? I have the vietnam tomcats campaign... can i edit it's .ini somehow so there will be more flyable aircraft to choose from in the loadout screen other than the tomcat?

I think what he is asking is how to modify the mission for the Tomcat to take of from the stock WOV carriers and flying into N. Vietnam.

sorry for confusing you guys :) ... I meant that I want to fly hornets off of a carrier .... and i have the vietnam tomcats campaign downloaded... i was wondering if it was possible to edit that campaign to include both the hornet and the EA6B. Basically i just want to take hornet rides off of carriers ... however possible
