OT - USS Nimitz operations in high seas - Awesome!

[~BD~]

From an email I received recently – the YouTube videos are great
viewing but even more exciting when I remember that our RN/RAN guys used
to do the same thing ..... on a deck half that length!!

Although I trained as a pilot, I never actually flew from a carrier deck
(but I did serve alongside those who did). These clips brought memories
flooding back!

**

This is very unnerving, landing with deck pitching 30 feet, at night,
low on fuel. Incredible. You will never forget viewing this. I have
seen a lot of aviation emails but the two videos below are undoubtedly
the best. Turn on your sound and go full screen. I guarantee this will
definitely hold your attention.

These videos show the difference between Naval Aviation and any other
kind. The links below are two outstanding videos about F-18 carrier
operations aboard the USS Nimitz during weather that causes a severely
pitching deck, which you can see in the videos. It's more dangerous
than most combat missions and the tension in the pilots and crew is very
apparent.

Great videos

Watch Part 1 first.

Carrier - Landing on a Pitching Deck Pt. 2

*Note* - they are both 10 minutes in length. Make sure you have the time
available to watch them right through. Awesome!

This is a newsgroup about spyware. It is not a place - even with "OT" -
to post copies of your personal email.

Keep it in your social groups.

That's fair enough. I do find you fascinating and interesting at the
same time, your quick whit and quips aside. Although, at times, you can be
funny with those too!

Forged (simply) means that it was posted with your handle and your email
(but not with your header characteristics).

What does 'It looks real enough' supposed to mean? It looks real what?
