In San Diego i have the Yorktown sittin there with 90/69 on the aircraft.
So i am wanting to add another flight of planes to top this ship off.
In SD i have a flight of 18 more wildcats that are carrier capable as well as some DB's
I clicked on the planes,then clicked transfer to ship and no ship shows up.

How do i move Planes to my carrier? I went thru 22 or so pages on the forums and coudnt find anything on this.
Please help me get my planes loaded on my carrier.
Thanks

Carriers have a limit on the number of groups that can be aboard, I think it's 4 groups. So if you already have 4 groups aboard you might not be able to load more on.

Not sure about that limit as i have 4 carriers Lexington/enterprise/ and saratoga all have 5 groups onboard.
Its got to be something else that i am missing and the manual isnt specific on HOW to do it.

The limit for US CV's is 5 squadrons.  I think the CV's might need to be in a TF that is undocked to fly planes onto them.

The carrier has to be in a task force, it can not be disbanded in port. If a ship is in port, you can not transfer plans on or off of it.

Most likely the aircraft you are trying to transfer are assigned to a restricted command. The unit limit on CVs is 5. You can transfer aircraft to a disbanded CV if the the air group starts in the same hex as the CV( they will all be listed as damaged ). You can transfer aircraft from a CV that is disbanded in a port to the normal transfer limit.

Who needs Wildcats, throw a group of F-14s and a group of F-18's onboard and you'll be better than fine.

As far as I know, you do not have to send it out of port. Just create a taskforce and then transfer...

F14's, That would make for a very cool movie. Some how send an Aircraft carrier back in time to re-fight Dec. 7.  Then accidentally leave one of the pilots back in time so when the ship returns to normal time the missing pilot can then re-join the ship.  Oh you must put a lost dog in the movie that gets re-united with it's owner.  I'm game for making that movie.  Send me $$$$$ for this project.

In that weather. I bet he wishes he Czech. BTW: What is Irish and has to stay out all night?......................................Patio furniture. Badaboom.

Don't feel bad. We didn't raise any new banners ourselves. Well we do get a WCHA one this year. And that is good. We get there almost every year and then fall down on the dance floor. This year? Who knows.

And lucky...you went to the Frozen Five. Luckyyyyyy.

Give it to CC this weekend and we'll you you in the cities. The Gopher's shopuld be shining up thier golf clubs.

UW is due though.
