Best thing about 262's on CVs? Full flaps and they will take back off on their own.

Nicely done but needs more appropriate comms.  "Cleared to land runway one three left" doesn't really work on a CV (and neither does any of the rest of the comms).

I don't have access to CAATC comms, got plenty of AWACS hanging around.

Actually, most appropriate would be no comms at all.  Almost all day VFR recoveries at the boat are CaseI/Zip lip (i.e., nobody says anything) but you video is still pretty cool  :D

Why did you land from the back of the CV?

Nice landing Wolfala!

Here is an Arado CV landing with space left to take off after. Arado is easier than a 262.

Arado is a puppy when slow with her toejam out. Did you try a stabilized constant descent approach rather them the flat over the deck and dump it? How would it affect yr landing roll you think?

A proper descent approach is alot harder to do right, definitely makes for a longer roll. Most likely not leaving enough room for take off. Rolex taught me to land with the correct descent approach years ago in the Arado, this one was just a gamey 'pancake' to see if I could take off again without having to roll back.

Do you think it's possible to land a 262 with enough space to takeoff? Perhaps with a pancake it might be, I might have to go and try it later.

properly? No, not without a backtaxi to the fantail of the deck. Airspeed low, max out the AoA, and in
a world of tremendous toejam. Now if you were a featherweight, no ammo and say 25% gas, that's a big maybe. Might be worth a TA session to try.
