So the Japs weren't the only ones to do crazy things huh ? They said it was nearly impossible to recover the aircraft afterwards, but still, so they tried it as well.. who mods it ? |
Probably it was only a simple peacetime experiment. The launch/recover of a sub-based airplane is an extremely difficult operation also if the sea is completely calm...then,those S class tincans rolled and pitched quite violently
. Maybe the US Navy thought to use it on the Great Lakes in case of war with Canada:rotfl: !!!!!!!!
