X-plane?

@cineboy99 shoulda tried to land without landing gear. you don't have to even put down the arresting hook; friction will do the rest. Just have to come down gently, otherwise you die. The only side-effect is a bent propeller.

I will not come forward with an airplane on a boat as I am how is it done?

My grandfther was a navigator in a B-17 with the 91st bomb group he was on a mission over Germany and his bombee took a flak hit in the left wing and knocked out the hydraulics for the left landing gear it was the scariest landing he ever had so many things could go wrong. to top it all off they lost the wrench that could lower it manually the ball turret gunner saw it fall out of the bomb bay during the bomb run which was all so when they got hit in the wing.

How was the landing? Did you end up in the drink?

Oh, I made it down OK. There was just the small issue of the raging fireball my Seafire turned into on hitting the deck! Other than that, a perfect landing!

Looks like you had a few too many before your flight there.
