re: So you want to be a Carrier Pilot

In my youth a bunch of crack pilots (names redacted) met at an airstrip (name redacted) in the US. Air Force vs Navy.
They "chalked" a stripe on the runway about the size of a flat top carrier
Lets just say Air Force got their butts kicked that day and they did not count a flattop moving up and down while actually trying to land.
It was not a surprise how many Navy pilots were in the early US Space program
Go NAVY!
Beat Army.

To be fair to our AF brethren, AF jets are made to land on a carrier.
