Not sure catapults are a great idea for commercial passenger service, unless they can handle rejected takeoffs in case of other mechanical problems on the aircraft. You don't want to be catapulted off the end of the runway if you have an engine failure shortly after the start of the take-off run.
- achamayou 9y agoThat doesn’t sound fundamentally different from having a failure on one engine sufficiently late during takeoff. Either way you probably want your other engine to have enough power to make a landing?
