Having spent 16 years in the navy, it's not the cat shots but the recoveries that always scared the hell out of me. One thing was drilled into my head, if you don't need to be on the flight deck, stay off it. Great video though.
What aircraft carrier w as you on
I watched flight ops from the 011weather deck of Enterprise. I did see a A-4 come in with battle damage in on the 1967 deployment
Agreed, a miss or snap of a recovery will slice you in half. a catapult is pretty casual but looks cool as hell, especially when the pilot salutes and grabs that "oh shit handle".
I was stationed on USS Forrestal right after it was dry docked for repairs after there mishap they nicked named it the USS Zippo
Those cables are amazing, to pull back a full force aircraft to a stop is mind bending
Mom said don't SLAM the screen door. Dad installed a Piston. Mom Smiled..ittle she know I could go out un-noticed. ;)
The plane is travelling at 200mph max.
@@caretakerfochr3834 Correct, however when the wheels hit the deck, they GO FULL POWER (in case they miss), so it is holding back up to the full force of the engines
They spray foam not water. Water would carry any burning fuel (which floats on top) further around the deck which is asking for more trouble.
Thank you again for all your stories and your service 🤙
Got a ride out to the Mid one morning in company with a USN CT and a package for delivery and installation aboard a Navy "boat". Can't talk much about that part of the mission but the ride out to the Mid in a C-1 Trader, the trapping aboard and subsequent launch to return home to the Japanese Air Base where we we stationed was MOST interesting. I've often wanted to go visit the Mid as I understand that she is now an afloat exhibit close to San Diego. I want to see if I can even remember the compartment where they stashed us while a rotor was being prepared to carry us out to the boat. Some day I may get there.
My impression as an amateur recreational sailor of the ship --- DAMN!! These floating bird farms are HUGE !!!.
My impression as a small acft pilot (Cessnas and Pipers) --- DAMN!! That runway is SHORT !!!

Amen too that zed ,thank you for your service brother ☮️
thank you all for what you do. come home safe to your love ones
GOD BLESS our military men and women who serve our country to keep us safe and free from foreign threats.
Do you think so ? Never !
My prayers are with all of our Navy Aircraft carriers and all branches of our Military for that matter!! My dad, is a Navy veteran (Vietnam Era), And I'll NEVER be able to thank our military men and women enough for their service to our COUNTRY!!
Quite informative and interesting. I would never try to take off or land on a carrier! 😮
Is it a Navy commercial?
@@turkishmaidWhether it's commercial or not, it's very interesting.
ABH’s do not launch and recovery aircraft. That’s an Aviation Boatswain Mate Equipment job(ABE).
I remember a while back I was standing on the Crow's Nest watching launches when a S3-Viking took off. You could tell something was wrong, they got turned upside down, ejected upside down, they didn't make it. Flight Ops is serious business, very dangerous.
DANGER ZONE INTENSIFIES 💪🏻😎🔝🛳️🛩️🛩️🛩️⚓️ MASSIVE RESPECT for the NAVY Carrier deck crews and pilots 🫡🫡🫡🔝🦅🇺🇸
Rewarded for doing what your train for is strange!
Exactly my thoughts too, rewarded for doing your job.
Not really as the cables had failed and through sheer grit the pilots saved a multi mullion dollar craft that does deserve a reward
They give anyone a metal these days.
Water does not put out JP- fuel….foam does!
Miss my time on the uss coral sea did one med-cruise 1987/1988 , VFA-131 Wildcats AO out of nas cecil field fla !
I done time on the USS Enterprise cvn65 from 1977-78. Been on Westpac 78. Kelly remember your number was it 43 by any chance?
@@barrybuchert1345 Yes sir the Coral Sea was CV-43 , We were part of cag-13 airgroup , Great times !
Flight deck life is a one of kind experience.
i 've actually had the privilege to serve on submarines SSBN's and SSN's and Been the Team Leader for ALRE (Aircraft Launch and Recovery Equipment ) at ASO/ NAVICP Phila I can say without a doubt the Flight Deck on a Carrier is the Most Dangerous 4.5 acres on Gods earth.
How long does the aircraft remain at full power after landing?
Once trapped by the arresting wire, power is cut.
The whole week!!!
Thank you.
I believe the pilot was reprimanded when she got back on broad the carrier:) 2:42
How so?
Oh yeah, she's the one who was talking to her mom on the phone about feeding her cat instead of flying the plane.
@@rkay9071 Or maybe talking to her boyfriend about what they are going to do when she got back to port,lol
So they test the cables by pulling it canceling out a inspection because it would need a inspection after test . You can't stress check something for future stress capability with stress. Course ,effect
09:12 The black guy was not flying the airplane. The captain was promoted quickly and flown out to train pilots and was not present at the ceremony.
I’m someone who’s berthing was 6 ft. below the #2 cable onboard the USS SARATOGA CV60. Every 30 seconds during flight ops during the day. I was night shift and helped fuel the jets. 85’ to 88 🫡🇺🇸✌️
As a non pilot…it seems landing is more dicey than take off? Opinions of pilots please. How often are arresting wires replaced?
Flight deck stories from my Pharmacists Mate father on the CV-2 and my ABH brother on the Randolph, Ti, and Champ, did not deter me from serving. I did it silently, however, on the SS339 SS349. Narragansett Bay
Hats off the the Bubbleheads❤
Has an aircraft ever hooked more than one arresting cable coming in for a landing, also what would happen if it did?.
You'll get no answers from a bot that says its ok to hose water on burning jet fuel. Water spreads fire. Foam is used in fuel fires.
No the arresting hook is the shape and size to grab one wire it can't grab and hold a second wire.
@@timmccarthy982 thanks bro.
Once it grabs the wire it lifts off the deck so it really couldn’t grab 2.
It stops twice as fast
Why is the tower located aft on the Ford carrier? Miss the tower then catch the cable...are we landing a plane safely or kicking a field goal?
It is so cool
The video from the carriers looks like B&W cameras from the early '1970's. This does not inspire confidence. 4k cameras are cheap.
God Bless your Daughter . I want to take a minute here for a prayer for bringing her home safely after that long on a Carrier . She has surely earned one .
Also , please let her know i said Thank You for your service . Her years active mean a whole lot and we as a nation appreciate that dedication .
As for me an Ole Turd with over 20 years in the ( Civilian arena ) i would Love to have just a pinch of her knowledge and experience .
FLY NAVY
good stuff
I spent 1 week on a tiger cruise on the USS John Stennis. I was able to watch the aircraft takeoff and land from the tower. My daughter served on the tower and I was able to access her work station. It was the most exciting experience of my life. I stood in the rain for hours watching these aircraft. Thank you US Navy for allowing families access into the lives of our children who serve.
3rd try on a rainy night in Hugh seas..talk about Fun.😅
"Yeah", Sure, What's that brown thing in the pants?
High seas or High seas?
Wowza! Scary
What happens to the crew if a plane suddenly overshoots the runway on an aircraft carrier? do they ever survive? does anyone here know? thanks.
AI voices are getting better, but still not quite there.
3rd try on a rainy night in Hugh seas..talk about Fun.. Our daughter retired in July 2023 after 21 years.
昔も今のパイロットは命がけなのでしょうね。
God bless ‘enjoy yourself. U erned more than anyone 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊.
never did it, never will. back seat with the blues don't carrier qualify at that time. admiration starts with a daydream, thank you gentlemen /peeps.
Plane has shadow on deck but the men don't, and why are they running towards an impending crash, or at least enormous jet blast.
So cool and so painful 😮
Too bad they didn't go into the AO or avionics or airframe shops or even the aircraft engine shops.
You didn't want to see the shop that repaired the LSO/ALSO radios?
I used to do that work (as PART of my job).
@@bricefleckenstein9666 Yes, I would be interested.
@@scorpion19142001 O 10 level, at least on Ranger.
And the ONLY enclosed space on that ship (which was the highest enclosed space on the ship).
It was NOT fun trying to tune a SRC-20/URC-9 when they fired up the surface search radar, but we got used to the "peg the needle on the meter every 5-10 seconds or whatever the time for the antenna to rotate was" issue.
@@bricefleckenstein9666 Thanks. I'm just a desk jockey sailor.
FOD, not "Eff-Oh-Dee". Please...
Praying for safety and protection for our American Military troops 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. Preserve them under your mighty hand, O Lord.
Well why don't you show them then? Instead of a history lesson!
Show what?
好酸那😁
♥️Go together🇰🇷🇺🇸🙏
Well if you can Tail Land that beast ,WHY NOT?
WHO is packing these parachutes that the people in the aircraft use?? Are there investigations into why parachutes did not open?? Is there any excuse for not packing a parachutes correctly?
This commentary is probably one standard deviation south of average human intelligence, about 85 on the SB scale. Duh.
What a BS opening photo !
No one would be out on the deck like that during landing of aircraft !!
Geeeezus H !!!
My ex-husband was stationed aboard the cvn-69 which is the Dwight D Eisenhower
When guys "forget than it never happens in ruSSian fleet... ther aircraft carrier is always damaged.....
A month for us navy to recover thier lost plane??omg wat would they do in hostile environment!!? I hope they figure something faster than that they should already have a wench system on ship and 1 w multiple hooks then a claw like arm that could grab it fast and move on a whole month is crazy is that cuz of beaucratic bs or wat? It reminds me wen out on lake Michigan w my boat and big storms outa nowhere would eat up my gas three times as fast and us coast guard would take hrs to tie up and tow me wen 1 time I jst grabbed 1 of my ropes and tied up to another boat in seconds it would take coast guard hrs to do same thing they sed cuz of thier procedures I'm like omg it shouldn't b that difficult and believe me lake Michigan can b worse than any ocean at times I always went out w full tank and Xtra jst in case but anyways it was stupid how slow it was! I hope our military could operate faster than taking whole month to salvage thier technology
Ocean can get pretty deep, might take a lot of winch cable
How can you survive that high nuclear radioactivity? It is on ropes, wires, highly disturbing. That causes many plane crashes. Comes from satellites. You can’t even walk during such laser attack.
Radioactivity is contained in the reactors. It is probably contained more on US Nuclear ships and power plants better than anywhere else in the world.
Satellites, laser attack? What the hell is in your brain?!
Those who are wearing purple shirts are known as grapes they are ABF Aviation boatswain's mate fuelers Bayfield all of the planes and helicopters on board
Dreadful VO delivery. It's as if it's a fairytale read to children. Is this the best AI can do?

Congratulations, that your daughter made it back. May your family can enjoy each other. Life is too short.
Congratulations
That is awesome ❤
Not instreted.

Nice!
Thank you for loaning her to protect our freedom!
Bad narration.
if you don’t say why it’s bad, you’re just being a dock.
How about. "Several helicopters were launched into the air". Where else would they launch? Into the water? Agree with OP on this one.
It's almost certainly AI generated. Flat, affectless, quasi-robotic. Give em a few years...@@russellmooneyham3334
@@russellmooneyham3334 well I mean the video is suppose to be about failed landings. I don't see why launching a couple helicopters into the ocean wouldn't qualify
Read like a storybook tale to kiddies.
Crap picture.

One more drooling fanatic , with out-of-place, irrelevant spam. It violates his own book of rules that he's supposed to be following. More hypocrisy from an ignorant fool. ( Matthew 6:5 )
So sad to see COVID19 futile masks - the needless fear we went through to make megabucks.
Wait a minute, for putting out a jet fire they got medals, I worked the flight deck as a jet engine mechanic troubleshooter (AD/TS), so I was on the uss constellation when the ship caught fire, all we got was a thank you & I was injured which ended my navy career & they got medals for a jet catching fire, hell we were on fire for damn near 1 1/2 days, dont seem right ?
It's a different Navy. In the 80s approval for NAMs was delegated down to the CO in most cases, and they began handing out NAMs as end-of-tour awards (provided you didn't screw up). I'd always thought a NAM required something extraordinary, like "disregarding his own personal safety, Petty Officer Mayweather braved withering machinegun fire and ran across the burning deck, dislodged the fallen ladder, opened the compartment and led his trapped shipmates to safety." Evidently not.
I was thinking the same thing. Was on the Independence cv62 and rarely was anything given out except in extreme circumstances. But ship's company never got much compared to a squadron. We basically cut someone in two, blew up the LOX shop and burned up a whole berthing compartment in a few years. I don't think anyone got more than a CO's letter dealing with them.
Well you see the thing is they weren't on fire for 1.5 days. Maybe if you'd put that fire out in 1 day you would have gotten a metal?
Exactly my point. You way a metal for poor fire fighting abilities when this ship put their fire out in a matter of minutes? I know it's 2023 and everyone gets a trophy but come on
@@jlo7770 you have no idea what you are talking about at all.
How many pilots are diversity hires? I need to know this information because it’s important to DEI, WEF, and NAACP.
President Obama ,mentioned something like he would not have a son be a solider. You can wonder if he wouldn't raise a daughter to be a mother.
Wanna see why were 30 trillion in debt? Maybe were not so *brave*
