And then there’s that word ‘bolter bolter’. What does that mean?

It’s the call that’s made when the aircraft fails to catch the arrestor on the flight deck while landing. The pilot accelerates after the call, circles the ship and attempts the landing again. It’s not clear to me who makes the call - the pilot or the landing signal officer. I’ll take a wild guess and say the LSO.
