Enable Modern Arrestors: Modern Arrestors enable arrestor cable functionality to any aircraft, regardless of whether the aircraft has a tailhook or not. It is recommended to use Modern arrestors, even with aircraft that do feature a tailhook, as the stock MSFS tailhook may not be effective at certain locations. For more information, check Arrestor Cables
To enable modern arrestors, click the button in the Approach tab on approach. The arrestors will engage upon contact with the flight deck. Modern arrestors remain active until manually deactivated.
Modern arrestors can be toggled "always on" on the settings tab. The "enable modern arrestors" button on the Landing page will disappear if "Modern arrestors always on" is enabled on the settings tab.
