One of the most demanding tasks for naval aviators is landing on a moving flight deck in high sea-states (i.e. the dynamic interface (DI) problem - see Figure 1). This task is made even more difficult by aerodynamic disturbances at the landing spot from the flow around the shipsbow, superstructure and deck edges. This highly unsteady ship airwake can lead to significant pilot workload.
