VF-17 Landing on a turning CV film
« on: November 06, 2013, 07:50:56 PM »
We even turn the CV on the rest of the squad if we land first (sometimes before).  :D

(Dang, forgot the film viewer can't track a turning CV.)  :lol

Landing on a turning carrier ain't easy. But can be done. There is a rook who always lands the jet bomber on carriers for resup. Whether it is turning or not!

Taking off from a turning CV seems to be an issue for some. I'm doubtful a 262 or 163 can do that but an F4U-1a with full fuel and flaps can.  :)
