Flat-top, hot drop is euphemism for an unannounced landing of allied planes on Navy of Burgundie aircraft carriers, and vice versa. It was first recorded during Operation Kipling when a Burgoignesc fighter was running out of fuel and needed to make a landing on an Urceann carrier.
In modern times it has become a semi-formalized readiness training tool when large, friendly navies are operating within close proximity of each other. The Navy of Burgundie's various fleet commands will now host flat-top, hot drop events to give their deck crews and pilots training with other navies.
