At least on single-engine birds; some twins may have had counter-rotating props, but I don't think they operated from carrier decks all that much. What, like a P-3? Not single-engine, not a twin, no counter-rotating props, and never operated from a carrier... Never? LOL |

LOL I assume you have some sort of evidence that a 140,000lb airplane that needs 4,000+ft of runway was somehow able to operate off of a carrier, right? |

As far as I know the USAAC Curtiss P-3 never found its way on board, nor would that been its designation in the Navy system of old. Even ignoring the inappropriateness of the "-", looks like none of the P3(whatever) planes from the US Navy did either. Am I missing some other than American type? Or are you by chance thing of the P-2 Neptune which was a twin and did operate in a limited sense from flattops? |
