here i am again with my carriers, I wondered what you could land if you did this to your carriers...

Ha ha! I bet you could get a heavy c130 on there.....providing of course that  the navy would let you do this with $500million carriers!

I can picture an Airbus A380 landing on that thing.

Actually there was a C-130 taking off and landing on an aircraft carrier, it was a bit modded with a tailhook. The pilot had to read his briefing twice, as he saw that he had to land an C-130 on a carrier...

Hehe, who's gonna post screenshots of a landing

How do you come up with it!  ;D  ;D  ;D

Sssst! The US army might get some idea's from this...  ;)

Actually there was a Marine Corps Herc that landed on the USS Forrestral in 1963 I believe... He had his tail shot up and it was the only landable place around.. I think Air Boss got court martialled after it though..

I'd love to see the insurance claim form for this one

especially when it looks like after they land their going to break the landing gears at the point in the middle where the two carriers meet!

well, if we tried that in multiplayer, no telling what we could land

Hehe, who's gonna post screenshots of a landing

There was a topic posted along time ago about this. But I can't seem to find it....
