I would to have love to have seen that.
We took a squadron of USMC OV-10's across the Atlantic and deck ran them in the Med. They stopped in Egypt for fuel before heading to Saudi Arabia.
The used the angle and before they had near reached the end of the deck they had the gear up and were climbing away. Not a fast plane but as it can carry two people and a bunch of stuff in the back I thought it would make a great backcountry plane for someone.
