In August 1943, a U.S. Navy F6F Hellcat approached the escort carrier USS Charger after a routine training flight.

The Hellcat slammed into the ramp of the Charger, broke apart, and slid violently off the stern. A crash like that usually meant only one outcome. But somehow, t

In 1943-1944, the USS Yorktown (CV-10) was a central Pacific carrier where pilots, returning from intense combat, often performed dangerous,, damaged-aircraft landings. A notable, frequently cited incident was in March 1944 (sometimes cited early 1944) when Ensign R. Black landed a damaged F6F Hellcat, which sheared in two on the deck. #ussyorktown #landing #airplane #usnavy #show | Ships & Models by Erick Navas
