“Pilot Frank Hawks attempted a takeoff from a soggy field in West Palm Beach, Florida, destroying the aircraft christened ‘Texaco Five’ in a spectacular crash that catapulted it into a row of three parked aircraft. All three occupants were unhurt while the aircraft was destroyed.” —Bureau...

carrier pitch can cause great sink, so it is important to avoid the departure when carrier pitch is at the maximum, and meanwhile the early release of the holdback bar caused by the ship motion should be considered for controlling the catapult time; catapult launch safety design is a multivar...
From its fourcatapults, an aircraft carrier can launch an aircraft every 20 seconds. The catapults are about 300 feet long and consist of a large piston underneath the deck. Above the deck, only a small device engages the aircraft nose gear. The catapult has two rows of slotted, cylindrical...
Naval Rafales have a strengthened undercarriage, arrestor hook and catapult points for carrier operations and a strengthened fuselage. The Rafale M's greater weight and the limited capability of theCharles de Gaullecatapult will leave it with less range than its air force equivalent, at around 1,...

The release load of holdback bar will affect the safety of catapult-assisted takeoff of carrier-based aircraft, and the accurate control of releasing the load will ensure success. The magnitude and the control accuracy of release load are important parameters which impact the takeoff performance, ...

Additionally, the holdback bar fracture strain has a significant impact on the pitch angle during the first second of the aircraft catapult process, with greater holdback bar fracture strain resulting in larger pitch angle variations. Keywords: catapult launch; carrier-based aircraft; holdback ...
