YouTube just served this video up to me. It's a couple years old but I didn't see anything already posted when I searched Aeroprakt. So this guy is landing, & TO, an LSA STOL Aeroprakt Foxbat A22 on the Hartmann M2 Runner Oceanic. Not an especially large ship at 92m LOA. Clear deck space was 60m and obstructed at each end. Don't really see much point in it as they had a helicopter with them that was more suited for the mission but it certainly looked like fun.

Here is a little different way of working off of cargo ships:

Doesn't surprise me. I did a search for Aeroprakt, figuring that should show up in any prior posting but I guess it didn't. Yeah, I was thinking of the Brodie system too when I saw this.
 
Have a friend that has collected most of all the aircraft parts to put a Brodie rig on one of his L-5's. If we could figure out how to do the land rig without needing a drill rig, it would be great airshow piece.
