This answeranswer suggests the FPV is aimed ahead of the ship. But it doesn't make sense.

A runway running away at 25 knots, is the same as a stationary runway plus 25 knots headwind.
The relative ground speed is the same, i.e., the rate of closure, and the glide-slope is consistent. Shouldn't the FPV be targeted at the touchdown zone?
Perhaps a bit to starboard, toward the island bridge, because that runway is crabbed. What am I missing?

A runway running away from me at 25 knots, no pun intended, is the same as a stationary runway plus 25 knots headwind.
The relative ground speed is the same, i.e., the rate of closure, and the glide-slope is consistent. Shouldn't the FPV be targeted at the touchdown zone?
Perhaps a bit to starboard, toward the island bridge, because that runway is crabbed, but the FPV should remain on deck. What am I missing?
