Mechta,
And to think I was almost taking you seriously!
Courtney Mil, If you look in the box, and what you want isn't there...?
I agree with COCL2 that catching the wire before the mainwheels cross certainly has some merits. What the effects would be when the tyres do cross (hook losing the wire or tyres having cable dragged across tread) needs some investigation. If anyone can locate a photo like the excellent one that deskwizard found, but with the mainwheels crossing the wire, it would give us a much better idea with what the hook has to contend.
This 1/8th speed video shows the movement of a wire after the aircraft crosses it, although the hook caught one of the earlier wires. The main wheels cross within the first second, so be ready on the pause button:
One of the problems seems to be that the wire is dragged forward off the leafspring supports and is sitting on the deck at the time the F-35 tailhook would pass. More of the leafspring supports staggered 'upwind' of the first at half length separation and slightly to one side of the first, would keep the wire off the deck as it moves off the first set of supports, or just making the supports a lot longer (not taller) might do the job.
