Nah. What you are beholding is a harrowing recovery by way of masterful piloting skills and Providence as bisher survives a massive catapult failure during takeoff. cool

Your screenshots are, and always have been, awesome Mr. Bisher - even the controversial ones.

duh yep winkngrin :
Exactly what I was thinking. Are you British?
Maybe they could tow the first Russia Nuclear powered barge and use few pulleys and cable to rig up a catapult or 2. rolleyes

Landings were difficult as well. I was a bit too inverted in this attempt

Your carrier is facing the wrong way, that's your problem right there!

Also, you expect me to believe that was a landing attempt? Puh-lease!! Your tailhook isn't even down! biggrin biggrin biggrin

Ummmmmm, Bisher, didn't we just have this conversation on the BOS Screen Shots Thread?? The same applies for jets Bisher Wheels DOWN when approaching a landing. yep Speaking of wheels, Ice, I would put my wheels down in leau of the tail hook and try to do a full Carrier landing hoping the ski ramp might stop me before I would try a belly landing hoping the tail hook would stop me, if I had to choose between the 2. Please tell me you did see that the landing gear is not down? rolleyes Please tell me that you saw that. banghead

I think you have a better chance of sticking a belly landing with the hook down vs. a wheels-down landing with the hook up, so stop questioning my wisdom! biggrin

Because his tailhook malfunctioned, he decided to go inverted to use his vertical stabilizers as a makeshift hook. As per my faux pas duh , truth be told, in Russia, aircraft carriers catapult the earth. You all have also failed to observe the expert and subtle prop blur on the aircraft that bisher is known for.

lol. Again, what Coot said biggrin

Yes prop blurs were my nemesis but I eventually felt comfortable with this. Most of my effort put into screenshots were prop blurs smile
