My uncle use to talk about this old F 14 Pilot that would help out the maintance crew during down time. His call sign was Crow but i forget how he got it. He said that was one of the only pilots he's ever seen that did that. The guy told him " Cant really call a car yours if you dont know how to take care of her". Always thought that was pretty cool.
His name was Eric "Winkle" Brown and he was one of the greatest pilots who ever lived. I would never call him the greatest, because he was a modest Scotsman who would never claim that either.
I would imagine that no matter how many times a pilot does this, his heart is pounding out of their chest. Getting shit of the deck of an aircraft carrier is something only .000000000000000000000001% of people will ever get to experience. And that makes me sad 😞

It's a gift to be able to land on an aircraft carrier/floating football field in the middle of the ocean, if you don't believe me, try it.

Totally Awesome!!!! My nephew just got accepted into the navy. He will be going to OCS in Rhode Island then Pensacola FL for training to be fighter pilot. It has been his life long dream and its very hard to get in. The next 2 years will be be the hardest but best training ever. He already has his pilot licenses but nothing like The Navy!!

Complete different era in world war II there was a straight flight Deck it took after world war II for the jet age for the carriers to be modernized with three British inventions. The angled flight Deck. Jet blast deflectors. And the fresnel optical glide slope system. Affectionately called the meatball
I had an officer who heard I was taking flying lessons and wanted to attend college upon my discharge. He lent me several books including Harbrace's English grammar and algebra texts. I did well enough on my SATs to get accepted to my State University. I had two months before discharge when he told me I was approved to fly with him in the hopes of my re-enlistment. WOW! He actually let me fly that bird. He recommended me for officers candidate school in 1975. May he rest in peace!

Oh **it, the brits are here and they claim credit for everything. 😂
Love not only the salute but also the hang loose sign. Awesome.
Love how the pilots salute the crew, always found that really nice.
It's the signal to launch I believe
They do this coz of the protocol and not out of niceness!
Also means that he's ready for lunch
"The shaka can convey Greetings, Gratitude or Assent". All appropriate imo. Cheers!!
The salute is the signal to the “shooter” that he is ready to go. The shooter then triggers the catapult
Don’t let his calm demeanor fool you. When you get launched by one of the catapults that shit takes your soul.
