Default Carrier Catapult

What I meant was, would the catapult be large enough for takeoff and landing. When I hear people talk about a catapult system, this is what comes to mind. A large structure to launch and recover the plane in limited space. I think that would be great! I fly off a mountain side. When you land, there can be no room for error otherwise you end up hitting the side of the mountain (Don't ask how I know!), or Running off the side of the mountain (again, don't ask). It would be great if someone designed a system that could get the plane in the air, without ripping off the nose gear, safely. I say go for it and the rest will follow!
