Okay,,,, this sounds all cool and everything. But I was top rack directly under the 3 wire at the point most often hit with the tail hook. Not the sides of 3 wire, but dead center of it. Of course I learned how to sleep with it. But as expected there were times when I was not tired enough and I would just be up for hours.

The heaviest hitting the deck in my view was the Tomcats.
Never had a Sky Warrior on board in my time.
