  • We set up a rather stupid simulation to test which non-naval aircraft can operate from Aircraft Carriers in rapidly worstening weather conditions.

    Not a single shot fired in anger, and I didn't stop grinning ear-to-ear the entire time. That was entirely TOO much fun! Well done, boys!

      That why I’m joining the GR Patreon. I’m having so much fun watching it should probably be considered obscene.
      Seeing that A10 land was a treat.

  • @ghostlypiano69
    @ghostlypiano69 Před rokem +37

    that first A-10 landing has to be one of the best damn landings i've ever seen lol if that were to happen in real life, you'd be able to hear the pilot yelling, "'MURICA!!!" from the other side of the carrier 🤣

    It wouldn't be a Grim Reapers video without burning planes, a carrier on fire and lots of boom boom. Laughed so hard. Well done guys.

    This was fun to watch. You guys had a blast! I enjoyed the opening where Cap was describing what the boys were going to do and the boys were attempting landing and doing silliness. When the A-10 landed and went BBBRRRRRRTTTT, Cap without missing a beat said "Really?" That made me laugh out loud! Great fun fellaas! Video Valued by Valued Viewer - Fly Army 🚁

    @SeedOfElijah Před rokem +15

    It's hard to do, especially without the extra knots of a moving ship. I landed a 737 on one in a different sim. I had thrust reverse, full brake on buttons on the stick and a bunch of flap. Took several tries. I believe I set headwinds a bit higher as well.

    • @Clarkem1
      @Clarkem1 Před rokem +5

      The carrier speed benifits the plane makes it easier, if the landing speed is 120kts, and the carriers moving at 35kts, the new trapping speed is 85kts.

    Oh, this video will be interesting... don't know who will win this.
    Hey GS, I had a random scenario pop into my head the other day, 3v3 carrier battle, Chinese 001, 002, and 003 against US and UK with Nimiz or Ford, Queen Elizabeth, and America.
    Just thought I would share it in the comments.

  • @rubiconnn
    @rubiconnn Před rokem

    Cap, you played every round of this with your canopy jettison lever blocking your throttle, limiting your thrust to below mil power. Your mix of incompetence and skill always manages to amaze me lol.

  • @TheFatVeganOne
    @TheFatVeganOne Před rokem

    OMG, when I heard that player go "Come on!" "Oh Shit!" as they fell off the carrier I laughed so hard!

  • @Hustler9g
    @Hustler9g Před rokem

    I won one of these like a year ago and something interesting I learned is that it starts easy, gets harder with a mild cross wind, but then easy again when the crosswind airspeed gets higher. Everything slows down and by the final one we basically vtol'd the landing.

  • @freddiejohames8332

    Oh my aching fantail! Following the proper glideslope, I would imagine some of those planes would come to a halt because their landing gear would collapse and their fuselage would be scraping the nonskid.

    I would love to have videos of an experienced pilot being a Rio and teaching a newbie like myself the ins and outs of the f14. Then have a handful of groups that are being trained do missions together or against each other. Would really make good videos. And fun competition for the new pilots and to see who the better trainer is.

      The Supermarine Seafire is a naval version of the Supermarine Spitfire adapted for operation from aircraft carriers. It was analogous in concept to the Hawker Sea Hurricane, a navalised version of the Spitfire's stablemate, the Hawker Hurricane. The name Seafire was derived from the abbreviation of the longer name Sea Spitfire

  • @davidabarak
    @davidabarak Před rokem

    That last round showed how nice it is to be able to hover in marshal.
    The hooks on carrier-capable aircraft are held down by hydraulics to help prevent hook-skips; I don't know if other aircraft with hooks have that same thing since they've got more room to catch a hook, and while flying what I assume are shallower glide slopes. I'm going to give this a try using the F-86. It obviously doesn't have a hook, but the Navy adopted the basic aircraft (I think with slightly longer wings) so the approach should be fairly similar.
    You all know about the 1963 tests with a C-130 on Forrestal, and many of you know about the U-2 flights from the Kitty Hawk and Ranger. Some of the U-2s were modified to have tailhooks from T-2s, and there were a few different U-2 variations used. Thinner arresting gear cables were used to minimize vibrations through the airframes.
    Several commercial aircraft were proposed as CODs - the Fokker F28 (abandoned because it would have been a mother Fokker to land), the C-9 (the Navy's version of a McDonald Douglas DC-9, which was in service as an ordinary transport),, Boeing 727s and 737s It's my understanding that a big reason none of these was used was because having one downed for maintenance would severely impact other flight activities. www.airlinereporter.com/2014/05/airliners-landing-aircraft-carrier-oh-yes/

    • @andymillon7964
      @andymillon7964 Před rokem +1

      Pneumatic pressure, not hydraulics; and yes, most non-USN aircraft use similar systems to force the "hook point" down. Not perfect (you still get hook skips), but not if you maintain nose up attitude. Normally 3 degree glide slope. Secret is to maintain proper ATTITUDE (use amber donut AOA indexer) throughout the pass and power to maintain the glide slope (reverse power curve). Fun video reminding me how much I didn't appreciate the difficulty of what I was doing for 10 years. Definitely a "young person's game."

    • @davidabarak
      @davidabarak Před rokem

      @@andymillon7964 Thanks for the clarification on how the hook is kept forced down. I may have known at some time that it was pneumatic.... or I may not have. I just can't remember if I forgot.
      We had a MAD boom stuck in the out position in a Viking one time and we had to fly the approach a little fast. According to NATOPS it would have been 14 alpha or less. I wasn't a pilot (I was a mostly clueless SENSO - they taught us very little about flight concepts, navigation concepts, aviation procedures, or even radio procedures - the only way we could talk on the radio was through some workaround that I don't remember) so I don't know if it was compensated by a change in glide slope.
