oh no... you might be able to land it if you were lucky.. but you are going to get craned off!Let me add a caveat here: That is IF the actual size of the wing is 250 square feet, if it as is noted in the margin notes on the 98-L illustrations 300? Might be possible, all the wing loading math I have seen is simple weight/area to give you how much lift is generated by X amount of wing; none of them take into account thickness of wing. Would it be weight limited? Yup just as much as an A-4 at the same weights since each of their wings is generating the same amount of lift by area.Now in specific to the wing on my alternate the wing is functionally identical to the FJ-4 Fury and that aircraft was used extensively on H-8 Essex class ships; same weights, same wing, same lift same launch speed and H-8 could hurl 15k pounds at 105 MPH(got no figures for 28k since it is not listed). So it should be able to operate with the same weight limits on any carrier that has cats with overlap in performance figures.
