From my reading there are many stories about the USN carriers turning off wind whilst an aircraft is approaching (usually at night). Thankfully the aircrew survive - usually humourously. At least one RAN FAA S2E/G was on finals to see MELBOURNE moving one way or t'uther. An A4G was lost overboard because the Bridge ordered a turn during a storm when the A4G was being moved - the black shoe excuse - the aircraft in FlyOne not visible from bridge, view blocked by an S2. The A4G brakeman in a float coat survived his ordeal, being rescued by a nearby destroyer rescue swimmer. Sadly not many - if any - RAN Carrier Captains had FAA experience, sometimes aircrew under blackshoe instruction may have been on the bridge to impart some wisdom.
Steve George has written a great article 'why a carrier is not an airfield' in 2012; however it may have a different title online: It used to be here & here: (I'll attempt to upload a PDF of it - SUCCESS! - it is PRN - reprinted)
