    Welcome aboard an EA-18G catapult 4 launch aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt from the Northern Arabian Gulf. If you look closely at my left 10 o'clock while I'm in the shuttle, you can see the catapult operator actually push the button that launches my aircraft...thus "making aviation".
    Welcome to the U.S. 5th Fleet Area of Operations. This place looked much nicer in the travel brochures.

    I tried to become a naval aviator while in engineering school at age 18 in 1970. I already had a private pilot's license. But the Viet Nam war was soon to end in a few years. A Naval aviator came to the airport at Melbourne, Fl. with his T-34 and gave us aerobatic airplane rides, so long as we took the written exam. After graduation, I went to Lakewood N.J. to take a Navy physical exam. While there I met several Navy aviators all complaining that they were getting practically no flying time because the war was winding down. Right then and there I knew my future was going to take a different turn. Timing is everything. I love this channel.

      @@zq3yp Back in my day, FIT was an engineering school but it also had a separate flight school that competed with Embry-Riddle. There were a few other smaller FBOs at Melbourne Airport. That airport has certainly grown.
      The Navy recruiter did some amazing things with the T-34, which was a beefed-up Bonanza with a stick instead of a yoke. If anything, he showed me how to use proper rudder control when doing a wingover. The good old days. My dad was a Chief Petty Officer during WWII. I grew up loving the Navy. I still like the Blues over the Thunderbirds, but both are great flying teams. I hope you enjoyed having your pilot's license. Be safe. Go Navy.

    @shawnerz98 Před rokem +6

    Lot's of mad respect for you and to you! I will say you make it seem so easy. Carrier aviation is ball/breast breaker. Cat launches and traps, and 12 hours on and 12 off, six days a week, with planes taking off and landing over your head while you're racked out, gets old. There is an element of "what else are you gonna do?" but it does wear on you. Then add the responsibilities to the CAG and all of the other military responsibilities just adds more stress. Once you're off the deck, add the stresses of tanking, ordinance release, combat aviation. So many eyes on every trap and grades. Mess up a time or two, and you're out. Not whining-just point out the realities to people who think once a nugget is qualed, it's all gravy after that. It's a tough and unforgiving mistress.

    I’ve always thought CV deck operations show what great team work humans can achieve. Great video as always and looked a beautiful day for flying. Fly safe

      If I was the President of the United States I'd chopper out to a supercarrier with a few friends.. I'd sit up on a deck overlook the catapults, smoke cigars, drink cold beer, and eat burgers off the grill.

    I absolutely love your videos. Your calm demeanor mixed with this person is a fighter pilot gives me a rush and helps me share in a little of the incredible feeling you get when you're in your jet. Thank you truly from the masses who just want to feel a part of the glory.

      Ash - the person doing the voice over/narrating is the same person who is flying the jet. That's Commander Pail, the actual pilot, that replied to you....Growler Jams. 😃

    I served in the U.S. Army 68 to 71, but two of my big Brothers served on Aircraft Carriers including the Wasp, Antietam, and Hornet, in the U.S. Navy in the late 50's and 60's. I enjoy you're videos very much.

    I saw this video on another channel and when I saw the signature move, I was sure it was you. really enjoy these videos. Your voice is so calm and you explain everything so clearly. Looking forward to the next one!

    Awesome. From your camera view, doing a taxi that close to the deck edge would be "cheek clenching". Keep 'em coming, Growler. Love the videos.

    Sat 3rd seat facing aft behind pilot. So watched the J57s come up. Pilot after salute did a quick key up to the crew (7 in total) on ICS here we go. When the jets went to HP since I was facing aft I would lean into the harness. BANG off we go.
    Your videos bring back a lot of memories, thanks.
    Wings of Gold are the only way to go. Salute Sir.

    I would have never thought that there is so much going on on the deck. This looks ike an obstacle course maneuvering the jet between all the people and other jets.
