EE Lightning Question Re. Cable Engagements
The F.6 I think had a hook fitted and could engage RHAG-type arrestor gear.
The question is, was this a once-only use if the approach end was engaged or were multiple engagements allowed before the airframe became too "stretched"?
What was the max weight and speed for engagement? Was this an airframe limit or the max energy absorbing limit of the arresting gear?
Are there any first hand stories to tell?
