British Royal Navy Supermarine Attacker F1 aircraft is seen approaching to land on the U.S. Aircraft Carrier, USS Antietam (CVA-36) during British Navy practice carrier operations using her angled flight deck, in 1953. Anti-aircraft guns on the Antietam are seen in foreground. The aircraft bounces upon touchdown and immediately continues in a touch and go landing. Another (or the same) Supermarine aircraft repeats a similar touch and go landing. A third British Attacker aircraft approaches to land, but rounds out too high and simply goes around. The next one seen executes a perfect touch and go but the one behind it fails to "touch" before continuing, as does the next one trying a touch and go. The next one makes a smooth touch down before proceeding to go. The final scene shows a Supermarine Attacker F1 aircraft touching down and staying there, in a full stop landing employing arresting gear.
