Ah hell, you broke the plane!  What you need to do is literally fly it while inside the hangar deck. 

The other thing is landing in various places on the cruiser--though anyone can do that.  The trick is to land undamaged and takeoff again.

Even with the Storch's insane flaps, I think you would need to have the cruiser steaming into the wind to pull a take-off.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

The cruiser is already doing about 30, full flaps you just have to goose the throttle and within a few feet your airborne. Your right on the edge of stall but you can take off easily.

And theres the joke  :aok.

I was subtly saying it might not be possible (and it doesn't look like it is based on the distance you have to roll before you fall off the turret).

You can land the b5n on the tail of the cruiser and sit there until the group turns left and the ship will accelerate to where you can make a dead stick takeoff.

Just curious as to what plane that is?
Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.
