How to enable arrestor cable landings

[wenkman 0]

Is it possible to add the possibility of arrestor landings (=deployed hook will stop the aircraft immediately) on regular runways?

 

Reason: NATO will normally use this method in cases of emergency (that is why even the F-16 has a hook).

I recall discussion on this before, but I don't think anyone has been able to get it to work. You may want to browse the KB, the answer may be buried there.

I had a think about this one once, one idea I had was building a really simple object (single plane) textured to look like the yellow dots that mark the location of a RHAG and designate it as an aircraft carrier, then maybe it could be placed on the airfield like other regular objects.
