Note that I have seen S-2s and C-1s launched while
at anchor. Never saw a recovery, though. I don't know if you could
shoot a light F/A-18 with 0 wind over the deck.
Still, ain't Sea Stories grand?!?!?!?! ;-)

Speaking of which -- while I was 'gator on IKE, we shot a C-2 as we
were dropping anchor in Halifax. The locals loved it and wanted more
-- alas we were out of C-2's
