I got the B-25 on and off the carrier, but if you guys want the secret for launching or landing on a short carrier deck.....here it is.....

Using weather, place a high wind down the length of the deck to aid in the airspeed for your A/C.....that way your ground speed will be lower as you keep flying speed where you need it...
I have landed some small light planes while travelling backwards relative to the ground.........set the wind to match your landing or launching heading...........

I thought someone would have already picked up on this and mentioned it by now.........it works......after all, its the way that Dolittle got his departure for Japan to work........

Well I discovered it a while back trying to see how severe I could get the weather. Turns out you can hover a 747 quite easily. I suggest you try it.
