Heavily inspired by the F-4-U corsair and the Wildcat, this carrier fighter was 100% designed around making carrier landings very easy. there is some bug with the landing gear that I am too lazy to fix now that I'm typing this, but it isn't a problem with flight. with high lift thanks to the double layered wings and a rather large prop and therefor higher speed thanks to the gull wings, which offers a massive upgrade to my older prototypes. When coming in to land, simply line up, lower throttle and open airbrakes with vtol. when you hit the deck, put the elevators fully down and brake. It takes practice, but it isn't that hard.
