A look back: Donny D.A., COVID & the crab of reason
Be fair….he never really said that.
He said Washington manned the air, rammed the ramparts, and took over the airports….he never said he had any planes…maybe he thinks Washington just catapulted soldiers at the airports (and rams at the ramparts).
Trump said on live tv that George Washington had airplanes.

The Answer To A Short Runway? The Ski Jump Runway
It would have been better to put catapults on the aircraft carriers, but they kinda screwed the pooch on that one.

Catapult?
Ygritte from Game of Thrones - how strong is she really?
We know it's powerful enough to penetrate, fur &/or mail + a thick gambeson/doublet as most of the Nights watch wear (reference, any scene where she shoots a battle dressed crow such as end of season 4). Even allowing for heavy shafts and piercing tips that's still some serious power.
Well beyond your average 20-40lb target & small game hunting type bows. Even if it was primarily a hunting bow, the wildings frequently hunt big game like Elks so it makes sense that it'd be a relatively heavy draw.
Besides even if it was a relatively light warbow (60-80lbs or so lets say), that's still hardcore to the extreme to hold at full draw for more than a few seconds and not loose ones composure (my aim would probably start shaking after 3-4, my body after 10-20 tops).
(and I think 80-120lbs is probably more likely anyway)
Besides this all misses the real point underlying i.e. no one trained with a bow would be silly enough to waste so much energy holding at full draw. Half maybe, or just taking up the slack.
Doubly silly given John has no ranged weapon of his own here and she could probably draw and loose 2 or 3 arrows before he closed the distance if he tried.
Goes on my list of pet gripes with GOT alongside Daenerys "firing" catapults and the occasional sword "schwing" sound. (not that I don't love the show)
Of course, you don't know the draw of her bow. You can only speculate. In other words, you know nothing, Jon Snow.
Amazing Take off on world's shortest runway, Saba Airport
That's a point... add a catapult and a net and you could have much shorter runways.
That's like, only 60m (200ft) longer than the new Gerald R Ford carrier flight deck...
MiG-29KUB Night Take-off From Indian Aircraft Carrier
Someone who knows verify something for me; by definition, a catapult-less launched aircraft must have less payload/weapons/fuel than a catapult-launched aircraft? Or does making an aircraft robust enough to catapult launch wash out that difference?
I had sort of assumed 1) that catapults allowed a higher weight aircraft and 2) that all aircraft had to be robust enough to plop down on a deck and that was the limiting step...
