He wants an externally visible arrestor hook on carrier aircraft. I am pretty sure the TBM has one though.

OMG! HTC don't listen to him... Now he wants a hook and tomorrow he will demand divebrakes not only working but visible as well...

And what do you want the hook for anyway? Its so simple to land, rearm and refuel and retake off with almost anything on the carrier without the hook so why to bother with adding one?
