Just been wracking my memory. I think that the USN / USMC had reported 12 launches or aborts whilst on the cat due to wings being folded. It might have been 6 aborts, and then 2 launches with crashes and loss of crew, 2 launches with crashes and crew saved and then the two which landed back.

Crikey. That was a 24 year old trip into my memories. The lecturer was very specifc about the locking tell-tale standing proud of the wing surface.
