OK now that's interesting. What's the tarp like think floating under the plane?

 

[Wurger]

IMHO that's a mat for catching, towing while picking the plane up during motion of a ship.

I would say here can be seen the way of catching... from 1:23 .... especially at 1:29

Recovering the SOC Seaplane

That was quite an interesting read. It gives me a new perspective on Naval air operations. To be flying around at night to be in position to start scouting in an easy aerial target and then being expendable so as not to endanger your ship. Navigating a big empty ocean in a rubber raft is something I would be quite leery of. Great post!

Thanks guys. Never knew but also never gave it a thought. I can see how the sled would help.
