Similar experience for two different persons on newest 44266 beta, on MP Hoggit TNN server.
There are no spawns on carrier, so flew hornet from nearest landbase, landed. Took of CAT1, everything OK. Landed and tried to take off again, CAT1,2 not attaching. CAT3 bunched me into short hop and landed on deck damaged.
Another player tested CAT3 and had same happen. He was also on his second landing after doing some bomb runs.
I then took new hornet, landed again. In all 4 CAT's I could attach and detach. Launched CAT3 OK. Landed and same thing, could not attach other CAT's and CAT3 bunched into air.
So it seems one launch is OK, but second launch for same plane causes the Bug.
