And women.

@@MrThuggery I did not see any women flying a jet in this video.

Burn.

Best pilots in the world. Ruzzia has literally no friggin' idea. lol

@@MrThuggery there were no women in this video. Stop virtue signaling. It is appropriate to compliment this young man without including women, so that someone, somewhere, is not offended.

Sounds like you had a very great carrier! Thank you for your service.

So is the line grabbing the giant cajones these guys fly with?? seems only thing that would make sense to grab a plane moving so fast. :D

I miss being young and on the streets managing an ambulance. Not a comparison to this of course. But we have a window of opportunity that is destined to fade with time. Life .. make it more.

I kind of miss my navy days too. I didn’t fly, just cooked

@@cjn585 As I am older now and can look back on my life I can see seasons based on circumstances, school, jobs, people I worked with and they seem to make chapters if you will. Didn't really realize it at the time. Only after one chapter had closed and I was into the next could I reflect on a period in my life that could never be repeated. Some were better than others but together they are the tapestry of a life.

I miss my days on the Connie cv 64 crash n salvage

see no blinking from 5:57 !!

You had me agreeing until the last. They don’t need the blessings of a bogey man

@@petesmith9472 If he doesn't exist, why do you feel a need to label him a bogey man and then attack me and God? You know what I think? I think you are terrified by the possibility that God does exist and your refusal to accept him is going to leave you in a very precarious situation one day. I hope you can find it in your heart to consider the possibility that he may exist and find it in your heart to stop bashing those who already know. God Bless you anyway!

@@tommaxwell429 Yours is an example, exemplified by your Republican Party, of the Christian hypocrisy for which the USA is infamous.

@@petesmith9472 Ok. God Bless You! I hope you find peace and happiness in your life. See you in November!

@@tommaxwell429 Christian hypocrisy… Trump: proven to be a pathological liar and a malignant narcissist. Until there were votes in it, an avowed supporter of pro choice, thrice married, con man, unable to accept defeat at the polls, a porn star client, a grifter, …. And you STILL support him. Yep, you’re a disgusting hypocrite hiding behind your disgraceful and shameless claim to faith.

I love Corvette but that would definitely put one to shame, Mr. Cool

I assure you, he does. In basic jet training, I was hanging around the ready room when our skipper walked in and asked if anyone wanted to ride with him, so I jumped up. He was scheduled as the chase plane instructor for a flight of four students on a formation practice flight. During the flight, he evaluated them as they repeatedly broke up and rendezvoused. He hadn't spoken much to me as we tooled along when he came up on the intercom and said, "You know, I've never been quite able to believe they're actually paying me to do this". A couple years later, I was sitting in the cockpit of an F-4, spotted facing forward on the fantail of USS MIdway off the coast of Vietnam. I was about to launch with forty or so other aircraft on an Alpha strike over the North. Engines were starting, tiedown chains were coming off and the deck heeled over as the ship turned into the wind. With all that purpose and might spread before me, the thought came to me, "I don't know whatever else I may do in life, but I doubt there will ever be anything like this". Now, almost fifty years later, that thought has turned out to be true.

@@hitorque2734 Thank you for your service🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Here we are a year on, and I want to thank you again for NOT adding music!

I was on USS Milwaukee A-OR2 from 1980-83 . 6th fleet based in Norfolk VA 2 Med cruises also enjoyed your videos Thank you

It's one of the resaons. There are many, many others that contribute.

this couldn't happen without plane guard. It's a team effort.

Tin cans all the way. 16 years sea duty on cans and yes plane guarding was part of it.

Tangible means something is perceived by touch.

@@tsparks4133 RIght; Palpable, perhaps?

@@-108- Pardon incoming rant. Simply state the facts; "Palpable" is good. "This is what concentration looks like." Or, "his concentration in this moment is awesome and unwavering". It's only my opinion that the need to insert the flavor of the day word into a sentenance is a waste of time, dilutes the meaning of words and, ups the ignorance level of those throwing them around. An example of this is the phrase "gas-lighting". This term was invented to replace the term "liar". It comes from a 30's era, British movie involving a guy who keeps adjusting the gas-lights in his house to make his wife think she's crazy. Therefore, "gas-lighting" is a fictional term created from a fictional movie with no relevance to anything. The fictional guy was a liar and his fictional wife was a gullible, idiot. And now, we now have a phrase that's aimed at replacing "liar".

@@tsparks4133 And now, we now have a phrase that's a̶i̶m̶e̶d̶ ̶a̶t̶ ̶r̶e̶p̶l̶a̶c̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶'̶l̶i̶a̶r̶'̶ absurdly over-used, to the point of nausea.

@@-108- Amen.

You’re right Daniel! When landing on land airstrips, I’ve seen many aircraft land and taxi back to where it’ll be parked, but carrier landings always conclude after the aircraft was safely on deck. This was the first time for me to it all the way through. Always wondered when they folded up the wings and how they organized returning aircraft. 👍🏽👍🏽

If you can do it on a video game you can do it in real life

@@dawsondetrana5496 haha. No. As someone who has taken up sim pilots to see how they go, I can tell you now that while it helps them understand the procedures, it’s a completely different thing doing it for real.

Awesome!!!!...

@@MeppyMan can't scramble a stealth plane. :)

Considering Naval pilots are the only pilots to land on carriers, that would stand to reason.

Thank you for your service!
