That would be interesting. Although I like the kitty litter
idea too - I can see that being a far better proposal than

Some time ago I was the engineer in charge of the RAAFs
arrestor systems for a couple of years which included the
arrestor wires and the barrier nets.

Of note was that prop aircraft would chew their way through
the barrier nets.  Also the barrier nets were unsuitable for
the two seat Hornets (but OK for the single seat) as the
rear seat was too elevated and would get struck by the top
cable that supported the net during an arrest.
