While belly landing on CV you end up falling through the elevator to the water.

When belly landing with hook i get sling shot off the carrier. Maybe because the breaks dont work when i sit on my belly.

Pretty strange though that an aircraft scraped on the carrier deck has less resistance to the wire back push than one with breaks on.

ps i didnt plan to belly land the gear um broke off on touch down... must have been material failiur or so...
