A platform 2 on a carrier vehicle 4 is used for launching, landing and accommodating aircraft 12. The platform is controllably moveable such that it may be substantially isolated from selected translational motion of the carrier vehicle. The carrier vehicle 4 may be an air or sea craft or land vehicle and typically is a ship. The position and orientation of the platform 2 is controllably movable to stabilise its level such that the aircraft 12 is able to land or launch on/from e.g. a substantially horizontal surface significantly decoupled from the motion of the carrier vehicle 4. The motion of the platform may be controlled in response to at least one information source, such as satellites regarding the position and orientation of the carrier vehicle and/or the aircraft. |
