Why aren't you cradling the fuselage from underneath with wide yellow straps both in front of the wing AND on the aft part of the fuse, and then linking those up to the hook as well? Just make sure you're not binding up close to the trailing edge of the wing. I can't believe you're doing this, this way.
I realize this was from 2012 and I'm late to the game here. The Navy had an option to allow these aircraft to do some low approaches to carriers prior to a normal arrested landing, given that the pilots had current qualifications. Clearly some of the armchair brass decided against that. The amazing history of allowing these Wildcats and TBMs the privilege of at least doing low approaches and possibly arrested landings is now completely lost. Sad.
1st.. Why don't you go get a Corsair? That's the first thing. The second thing is that you actually give the Corsair to me. The next thing is you put the Eisenhower underway. The reason I can't use the U.S.S. America is because you had it sunk. Anyways, I will actually land the Corsair on deck once you're underway. How's that?
88mike I only hope that folks will take on more actions against Drumpfanzee Junta this year than simply marches in demonstration solidarity, Obama... well corporations shouldn't be called citizens and avoid taxes and buy the system where one party is fascist as hell and the other is so far right it's a pathetic remnant of it once pro-union self.

Welcome home Wildcat!

Where's the F8F? Have you even got one?
That was neat to see her being hoisted aboard. Was the Avenger brought up as well?
Looks small on the Bush.

Oh crap, we have a carrier named after Bush?
