My question is, how will they get the airplane back OFF of the RV after the show. Speed up and jump?! I don't think it will work.
When I was in the Navy, we used to ride the Midway when I served as Intelligence Officer for a destroyer squadron commodore.
At times, we could hang out in a small compartment and watch planes take off and land on the aircraft carrier...no small ship at about 3 football fields in length.
However, when the pilot wants to reach several hundreds of miles an hour in that short of a distance, it does amount to speeding up and jumping off, with the help of catapults.
Landing...the pilots tell me it's like trying to put your twenty million dollar aircraft, flying at 200-300mph on a postage stamp in the middle of an ocean.
Now, that is fun to watch.
