Cool Navy Aircraft Carrier Landing Film

Recommended Posts

Now I'm ready to make carrier landings. :D   Should be a breeze in a Mooney landing with about 10kts GS.  Ship 25kts, wind speed 15kts 40kts airspeed on the deck 50 to 60kts IAS landing.  Who needs a stinking hook?

 

Did you notice the AOA in the display and the constant comments regarding AOA?

. . . where the runway is always right where you left it, two miles long and perfectly flat.

 

10,000 feet most of the time but not often perfectly flat ;)

 

However, after de-brief you can drink and flirt in the O'Club (once called a stag bar) and sleep in your own, non rocking, bed. :wub:
