It's just a joke, I looked up the carrier length and it is far longer than the ground roll of a 182. It would be a fun trick for somebody to do sometime.
Sorry you felt threatened.
This was just a humorous response to you saying that GA guys need AOA gauges, then retorting that Chuck only thinks he doesn't need one because he doesn't land on carriers.
Actually I'm glad to hear that you meant it in a humorous manner since my response to you was made in the same vein.
Now threatened is an interesting word for you to use. I promise doc that I do not lose any sleep over your feelings of the uselessness of an AoA gauge in general aviation cockpits.
