A Douglas TBD-1 Devastator ended up in the catwalk abaft the bridge of USS Yorktown (CV-5), on 3 September 1940 following a landing accident.
This particular aircraft was subsequently repaired and assigned to Torpedo Eight, and was one of the many such aircraft lost during the Battle of Midway
on 4 June 1942.

U.S. Navy LCDR Maxwell F. Leslie, commanding officer of Bombing Squadron (VB) 3, ditches next to the heavy cruiser USS Astoria(CA-34) after successfully
attacking the Japanese carrier Soryu during the Battle of Midway, 13:48 h, 4 June 1942. Leslie and his wingman LT(JG) P.A. Holmberg ditched near Astoria
due to fuel exhaustion, after their parent carrier USS Yorktown (CV-5) was under attack by Japanese planes when they returned. Leslie, Holmberg, and
their gunners were rescued by one of the cruiser's whaleboats. Note one of the cruiser's Curtiss SOC Seagull floatplanes on the catapult.

I dunno, looks like all the non-Wildcats appear to have perforated dive flaps, so likely not TBDs.
