Don't know about this one, but when I was there last year I saw it pop out through a huge storm on about a 3 mile final, land about halfway down the runway and stop before our "eyes out on stalks" about three and a half inches from the end, amidst lots of spray and reverser noise! If this demonstration of how to land a 737 on a carrier deck is any indication, I would say it was only a matter of time if this latest is true.
If it is true, of course, hope no one got bent.
