OK I'll bite.
Let's forget the 'cool' stuff and actually look at the test film...they wouldn't be doing such a test for a laugh, so presumably it IS representative of the real thing.
Looks a touch bouncy and nose heavy to me, but I've never had to land a fast jet on a carrier - though I've never done the " stop then land " alternative either, it seems a lot more appealing, and I've recently learned ( thanks ! ) of fast jets failing to trap at least in theory having the reserve energy to do a bolter, while maybe the F-35B won't - I'd still prefer to crash at 60 kts than 160 !
Would anyone with such cat n' trap experience care to comment please ?
