wow thats the uss harry s. truman, and the plane that landed was from VAQ-130, even though the landing was cool the tomcats just sitting there was cooler
the landing wire you're talking about is called arresting gear...it stops the aircraft more quicker when it lands..i believe the EA6 prowlers are being phased out..
don't forget there is the landing wire wich stops the plane....obviouslly those pilots have extreme skills but the landing on a carrier is minor comparing to other stuff they are doing.
Unless your pushing Cable!! LOL

Carrier landings are difficult. They just make it LOOK easy!
