What is the difference between a carrier and a flattop?

The only thing I know is that it was part of Plan Z, to strengthen the Kriegsmarine.

I just remembered that I read something a while back about using the carriers to help in the battle of tha Atlantic, but I don't know if that would have been a good idea, or if that was just something I read and didn't find a second source for. If that was the purpose, it would have made a tempting target.

ok guys another hint...........do not think of the KM version as the size of British and US flat-tops and this very point might help you realize what they were used for. Several in production

Even if the German carriers had been the best in the world which they weren't by a long shot the problem is with the aircraft. The 109 had a very poor landing record, probably one of the worst of any front line fighter produced in large numbers.
Would anyone like to take a stab at the accident rate of a Naval 109?
