Summary[edit]

Description A U.S. Navy Grumman TBF-1 Avenger of Torpedo Squadron 5 (VT-5) is launched with one of two hangar catapults from the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown (CV-10) in May 1943. The hangar catapults were never used operationally and quickly removed. Instead, a second catapult was installed on the flight deck.
