Awesome is right. Two thumbs up to the men and women of the Navy and Marines. I'm always stunned by how young the people are and how competent. But then I served in the Air Force many moons ago and watched 18 to 21 year olds like me maintain and service and even operate things like B-52s and ICBMs.
We're in good hands.
There is an error in the launch info. At launch, the pilot has his right hand on the front bow handle and the left hand is on the throttles with a lock lever that won't allow the throttles to move backward at launch. No pilot would be shot off with his hand NOT on the throttles. Another thing not mentioned was that after an arrested landing or missed approach, the pilot goes to full power, not AB. It is a strange feeling to go to full power when you feel the wire. But if it breaks or any other malfunction the plane is powered up and can make a missed approach with no hesitation. One of the sickest feelings is sitting in the cockpit facing outboard and not being able to see anything but water! I flew the F-4B and when we air to air refueled, if you approached the basket too slowly it would move away from the probe because of the nose cone wake. So there was a moment when you had to be going towards the basket a little faster than was comfortable or you would not plug in. Fun exciting times!
I knew a guy that flew F/A18’s and he told me they wanted to see both hands off because the F/A 18 was flown by computer for the first twenty seconds on carrier takeoff due to pilots overcompensating and going into power oscillation. (His words) I could be wrong.
Not many pilots chime in the comments. You should write more and describe your experiences like you did up there. I’d love to read it! F4? Were you a pilot in Vietnam? I work with a guy who was on one of the first flights into desert storm. He was a boom operator in the Air Force. He has a ton of fun stories! I love aviation but too many pilots will use terms and words that average people can’t follow. Feel free to share more stories man! Thank you for your service as well.
Thank you very much for correcting the narrative. Nothing like getting the correct information from someone who has actually done it.
Isn’t it great to see the huge mention of the Brits. Who pioneered much of what we now take for granted in naval aviation
This is an outstanding video explaining what the jobs and responsibilities for all of the carrier sailors are. Very well presented and interesting!
Just goes to show you, the greatest threat to mankind is mankind himself!
These are the best videos out there. Really appreciate them!
Never knew an F-18 could fuel another aircraft. Pretty friggin cool!! 👍🏻😎👍🏻
toujours de belles images !! j'ai toujours hâte de découvrir les nouvelles vidéos !! MERCI
And to think I used to dread pulling my 24' Four Winns cabin cruiser into a slip on a windy day, but landing a fighter on a pitching Carrier deck in the middle of the ocean is just insane!
Hats off, Mega Salutes, and three loud Cheers for our Naval Aviators, and all who support them!!
Highest level of respect for our U.S. Military. All of you are very amazing and intelligent. God bless the U.S.A. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
These personnel are keeping us safe in our beds.. glory an blessings bestowed upon them 🙏 ✨️
Awesome professionalism prevails on board and airborne.

I am proud to say that the hovercraft was invented by Mr (later Sir) Christopher Cockerell, in a small village in the UK about 4 miles from where I grew up!
As a former Naval Flight Officer, the first two statements ("flight deck operations" with the Wright brothers? & aircraft carriers "significantly altering WWI") made me leave by 0:29
Please return. We need you.
Did we even have aircraft carriers in WWI?
NO! 1st aircraft carrier was built in 1922. USS Langley CV-1
@@Nitephall NO!

always good stuff !
MADE IN USA ALWAYS POWERFUL N BEAUTIFUL
I would really like to have flown one of those.. above all else.. but I had to settle for else, but what else?
5:08 - and that kids is how new fighter jets are made
If they haven't already, DCS needs to add that "chainsaw" sound to the catapult launch @ 3:33.
awesome
great video.
Quanto da tecnologia do F18 e F35 foram produzidas na China?
This Viduo Very Amazing
America's experience with aircraft carrier ops goes back to 1922 with the U.S.S. Langley. We have 102 years of experience with the logistics. And China? Not that long.
CHAPEAU 👍 👍 👍 👍
Incroyable le génie humain @
الله اكبر
I like this vidéo.
As soon as I see sped-up footage I'm out.
So badass
Keep it coming. Ooooohrah
Sir, how can I know that as you sir?
No body can Jack with the USA 🇺🇸 we are Battle tested Aproved. The NHRA in the sky.
Não se escreve ou diz "negocia" mas sim "negoceia",

Too many ads and the ads are super long. Won't be back watching.
Why doesn’t the military link 4 flat-top ships together to make an Aircraft Carrier twice as wide and twice as long. They could be separated to pass through the Panama or Suez Canal…
Seems like that would just make it a bigger target, and easier for an adversary to locate, track, and attack-
Among other things.
So where was the "Crazy Landing Approach on Aircraft Carrier?"
negoceia
正しくは着艦😂🎉
Aircraft carriers had no effect on World War One. Aircraft carriers were not used in World War One.
over the ocean... not like the Swiss army pilots flying in the high mountains..

Привет, американцы! У меня вопрос - для чего вам такие корабли? Чтобы гордиться? Чтобы людей пугать? Чтобы самим не бояться? Кто расскажет?
ihr seit so geil- ich hätte es nicht besser machen können. >Damit dich besser fressen kann.
у вас на флагштоке прапор украины ... то - есть вы открыто признали III третью Мировую ??? ... гоно вопрос : " зачем нам Земля без России )))
I don't think carriers altered anything in WW1....the first aircraft carrier was HMS Argus, which was never deployed in that war.
