You are learning how to take off and land in your Ukranian carrier while we are testing unmanned drones on our carriers. It's a big deal unless you just crawled out of a cave.

Excuse the 'bot. He can only post whatever his shift stupor-visor dole out.

Not exactly a landing, but a touch 'n go.

yeap.

Landing on AC is one of the marvelous (obviously challenging) thing in aviation.

And this is why I am looking forward to that exciting moment (whenever it happens)
