Question

Would landing on a battlestar's left or right flight pod raise the same concerns as landing beside a carrier island?

Short answer

Potentially, though a guiding system is imagined as a way to help with the landing.

Notes

Landing on the left or right flight pod could raise some of the concerns associated with carrier landings and the position of a ship's island. A guiding system is imagined as a way to help aircraft recover. This remains speculation about the fictional ship's equipment.
