Just curious....

Who in the Navy holds the record for greatest number of carrier trap
landings? And what's his total number of traps?

WDA
VF-24 & VA-192

I hear Flatley's name with regard to this but I would think it would be
somebody during WWII, when they were flying everyday, for weeks on end,
2-3 times per day and multi tours onbaord the CV(E)s...as long as they
lived that long. Not sure if they did 'greeny boards' and trap counts
during WWII, I'm sure there were more important things to worry about
than what paddle's said.
