Here is Ken Cross landing on the Glorious without a tail hook after evacuating Norway. Soon after the Glorious, along with her escort the Acasta and Ardent, were sunk by the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau. Ken was one of the few survivors.
Nice model Stuart though it does need to be set up as a vehicle. Allen made a tutorial on how to do it for a Gmax object here:

A vehicle is an exploding object BTW. Follow the instruction, add a vehicle .dp, and Bob's your uncle.
Cheers Stuart - Gosh, there can't be much of the IJN left to do
