Both Hornet and Bennington had their flight decks damaged in a typhoon southeast of Japan 5 Jun 1945. The first part of this video shows damage to the Bennington with one plane taking off over the bow. The rest of the video shows Fighting Squadron VF-11 ‘Sundowners’ F6F Hellcats launching over Hornet’s stern as the ship steamed in reverse at 18.5 knots. This was the only operational use of this capability even though it was built into the specifications for the Essex-class.
