[edit] Summary
Line up for landing on an aircraft carrier is complicated when the ship turns. The further from landing, the more pronounced the line up correction required. Ships routinely turn during recoveries to "sweeten" the winds(putting them on the nose of the approaching aircraft), or to maneuver around obsticals (oil platforms, boats, shoreline, etc.).
