Interesting insight to how hard it is to land in a aircraft carrier...the Buccaneer pilot makes numerous bolters and finally snags the wire.

Royal Navy carriers always amazed US pilots due to their sheer small size...

Australia operated 3 of these carriers at one stage and one was part of a semi famous story where a USMC pilot on exchange i recall landed on the HMAS Melbourne carrier in 1970s and promptly got out and sprayed onto his A-4 - a sign which said like " I did it" .... so other saw that it was possible on such a small carrier deck...
