Not exactly answering the question but the F-4U Corsair was prone to fatal stalling/spinning on final due to the asymmetric effect of the huge prop. I read somewhere that the RN alleviated this problem by conducting a curved approach to the carriers. Guessing this improved visibility as well as improving the airflow over the wind prone to drop.
