Default Plane braking

i just had a thought ...

maybe it is a suggestion to add parachutes 2 brake the planes when landing caus atm the planes have almost no oportunity of landing caus if you go 2 slow you crash and if you go to fast you slide acros the landing strip

It would be very unrealistic, not to mention that its easy as f**k to land. You just have to practice. Seriously just practice more man.

No, never. They have like a steel cable that they hook onto while landing. I know im not describing correctly so someone else come here and educate the masses.

Arresting gear - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If you cant be arsed into reading that basicly, when the jet lands to decelerate quickly and keep from falling off the carrier the jet drops a hook that grabs the arrestor cable. The arrestor cable is connected to large springs that absorb energy.

the cables aeren't connected to a large spring , but this type of machine that pulls back on the cable when a jet lands. I watched a couple documentary's on the Nimitz class carriers' and i never seen a large spring of some sort when they're talking about where the arrestor cable goes to
