No not even at 66kts would a Colossus of Majestic handle this, since their limited majoritively to 24,000lb and one to 30,000lb aircraft.


A Centaur might, Hermes most likely, since it was thought possible with mk13 gear to land a 35,000lb machine at 97kts in 1952.

Victorious, Eagle and Ark Royal yes.


However that pdf is something to read, and while I've only had a quiick look through it might suggest a more normal figure of 150kts, which if we factor in a 25kt WOD means 125kts.


Err 22,000lb at 140kts is rather different from 35,000lb at 66kts, let alone the latter weight at 125kts.
