after thinking about it again it would depend on wheir the thrusters were on the tail or under the wings -- on the wings would create an air cushion -- and like a harrier will lift up -- WW2 pappy boington famous overstocked air craft carrier comes to mind -- he flew a mc donald douglass bomber off the deck of an aircraft carrier fully loaded for a bomming mission on japon -- the nose of the bomber was 20 foot back from the the end of the deck of the aircraft carrier -- its all about the lift not the foward speed --- jz
