Hello Cliff,
Hope I've got the hang of publishing pics at last.
Landing a Seafire on the Attacker was always somewhat scary. The two photos show that things could go wrong but nevertheless in the words of the A25 song it was an 'OK Landing' - the pilot could still walk away!
Must not forget the Batman. When a Seafire hit the deck (literally), the Batman was standing only 20 feet or so from the wing tip. If the ship rolled, the aircraft came in in off centre or the wind direction changed the Batman was in a precarious position! Slung over the side of the carrier was a small net. As a last resort the Batman made a hasty run and jump and hopefully finished up in the net.
Only trouble now is these pics look like postage stamps, 4 times bigger wold be better
