Hello,
I would like to know if anyone has built an Aircraft-carrier and had planes or jets take off and land from it?
Thanks,
Erik

No, but they are discussing the same topic here:

In the early 1960s Model Airplane News (I think) ran an article of the conversion of a boat of around 20ft length and its use for take-off and landing of prop models with the then 'new' multi-channel reed radio - Bob Dunham is the name which came to mind? Landings were very difficult
You need to be really good to be that accurate to land, but take-off would be easier. Jets? - time intolerant and high speed make it near impossible but I would like to be proved wrong.
