+JonathanRL 974 Posted March 6, 2014 Did somebody land on the wrong Carrier? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macelena 1,070 Posted March 6, 2014 I didn´t know about the year, it just said it was an N model. On the other hand, there was a pic around with Ks in along with a J with DECMs, however, this had to be in a US carrier, as they were side by side in their respective catapults and i doubt a J would have been fine to operate from one of the smaller carriers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+daddyairplanes 10,243 Posted March 6, 2014 both instances are zaps by the squadrons the other plane visited. the colonial navy is when the RN worked up on the Saratoga while Ark Royal was refitting. the USMC one was a return of the favor i believe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
