When the USMC deploy to our carrier are they ski jump compliant as I didn't think the Americans use such a devise and where do our pilots train.
I recall Yeovilton had a training jump for the Sea Harriers.

They can train and get suitably qualified in the US.

There's no need for a ramp at Marham as the sims are good enough to recreate the real thing.
