DCS Hornet Carrier Ops with Gonky

Gonky (Former F/A-18 Pilot) "assists" Mover (Land loving Viper and F/A-18 Adversary Pilot) with carrier ops at the boat. Do not try this at home. Watch Gonky's video: • F/A-18 Hornet Pilots T...

I'm gonna tell my kids this is Top Gun.

[@WasabiSniffer]

“Who’s up there?” “Cougar and Merlin, and Mover and Gonky.” “Great, Mover and Gonky.”

[@Glee73]

LOL.. its hard to actually believe thats their real callsigns.. unlike the "super cool" ones you hear in the movies. 🤣

[@Officer95Button]

​@@Glee73I had a buddy whose callsign is Hodor because one time he tried to open a door without breaking his stride to impress a girl at the OC and ended up smacking himself in the face with the door instead 😂

[@ET_Thompson10.9]

Seems like a legit boldface Mover. “What’s all this noise?! Alright I’m getting out…” (dies in the island rigging) 😂😂

[@Cameron_the_Robot]

Love these, I hope you start doing more of these with Gonky. a series of this is great!

[@calneigbauer7542]

Would love a mover and gonky dcs flying series

[@crazypetec-130fe7]

I already saw Gonky's POV in the Ready Room, and I was looking forward to the flybys from Mover's POV. They did not disappoint.

[@patrickreindel692]

"That jet is completely useable again too." LMFAO!

[@CuffsNewYork]

I love everything about this! LOL. The banter is top notch!😎

[@draneldavid4472]

“Are you sure you were in the Navy???” Lol best line yet brothah.

[@joequackenbushMusic]

I was beginning to doubt you guys were pilots until Mover ejected onto the island. That takes some special kind of skill.

[@cogwap359]

Thanks Mover and Gonky! I seriously needed a good chuckle. I don't know which was better: Gonky's flyby with Mover on deck or Mover parking and the ejection. LMAO!

[@lcd2426]

WOMBAT is not going to be impressed with those approaches lol

[@Glee73]

should get WOMBAT to debrief those traps!

[@guntherultraboltnovacrunch5248]

Our family got the Coleco "Telstar" pong game in the 70's. We hooked it up to our Zenith TV and we were amazed. Years later my father got me an intelivision console which, back then (early 80's) was very close to $300 ($900 in todays money). To see DCS an this level of graphical fidelity never ceases to amaze me.

[@arynnd20]

Gonky's flybys look so much more aggressive from this angle, fun to see from both povs. Love the content and love the books, just picked them up.

[@HMMR03]

2:34 The crew sure have some grippy shoes on to not just get blown away by that flyby!

[@sparrowlt]

you mean the helpers...

[@richardbryan6349]

Hilarious!!!! 😂😊 Hearing you guys play it's a wonder you guys actually flew real Hornets back in the day. I'm sure if tomorrow someone put you in a real Hornet, the real skills would come back rather quickly.

[@fbird90nw]

They're not taking it's seriously as it's a game lmao. No need to act all professional no stakes

[@richardbryan6349]

@@fbird90nw Yeah plus it's more difficult flying a keyboard. Basically trying to figure out what key does what function. CTRL-F, or SHIFT ALT A etc... Put them in a real cockpit and all the muscle memory comes back. Plus they can see the switch or button the need to push.

[@ThomasHendrickson]

You can tell they’re real military pilots, because now that there’s no consequences, they are acting on the intrusive thoughts they’ve been having their whole career

[@tomwilson1006]

I just caught the tail end of this and unfortunately Mover will NOT be attending the debrief 🤣😂😝💥

[@TheCaptainSlappy]

He will be, just not...you know...in the "alive" sense of the word.

[@calneigbauer7542]

Gonna need to see a cas/bombing comparison between you guys now love seeing you guys back in dcs and goofing off

[@the88tench3]

Mover vs Gonky bombing competition would be hilarious. 10/10 they need to do that!

[@kevinteig8693]

Welcome aboard with a ramp strike. You're a qual!

[@timothystevenhoward]

the Gonky, in his natural environment! -in David Attenborough voice

[@paulblack5883]

Perfect flight guys. Nailed the traps

[@Universal_exports87]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "I'M NOT SURE I AM CAPABLE OF LEADING" after lighting up the entire Carrier. Too funny. Thank you both for your service to this Country.

[@paulbrooks4395]

I laughed so hard, Gonky’s commentary is perfect.

[@GuildofThunder]

@2:38 That fly by would make Maverick cry! That was RIDICULOUS! LOL!

[@chemicalbrucey157]

The constant state of mild panic in Gonky's voice is what im here for

[@mactac25]

This, 100%. Also thinking to myself…man, am I glad I’m not the Air Boss right about now…

[@glaabaglooba]

"oh boy.... oh boy..."

[@richardoconnor8258]

Hearing Gonky snicker as hes coming in for a strafing run, then his boisterous laugh when he connects. This is Gold! Series Please!!!!!!

[@vz6235]

WOOHOO!!! More Mover/Gonky DCS content, yes! 👍👍👍👍

[@Stubbies2003]

Gonky was spicy today. Amusing to watch. Holy crap I thought Mover was going to deck strike for sure. That was super close.

[@PeteVA-212]

Mover, you need to polish up your taxi skills on the boat. And always follow the flight directors hand signals or they will definitely signal you to get your head out of your "you know what." I speak from Personal experience! Loved your SHB with Gonky. How you two trapped, I'll never know? Watched both channels' videos. You two entertained an ole A-4 Driver! BZ!

[@2Wheels1rider]

Mover, I hate to break it to you, but if you’ve lost your stick, you may need to see a Dr. I hear there are options in 2023 😏

[@charltoncarter8142]

Those aftermarket sticks are definitely troublesome. Especially if the parts are not American made.

[@2Wheels1rider]

This that old ass man humor

Or get a job in beer advertising

Danger Zone only works with Tomcats and Super Hornets.

[@CWLemoine]

Lana!

[@DefenderTIM]

Zero-zero only works if you're wings level, sir

[@CWLemoine]

Works a lot better if you don't hit the island too.

[@kevinm6510]

You could tell Gonky was much more comfortable at the boat. Loved when Gonky shot Mover, lol!

[@mpsymonds1]

I thought Mover was lining Gronky up for a back door surprise, after taking those pot shots on the boat. Superb video.

[@chrishewitt4220]

What a hoot... loved it! Just the tonic to put a smile on my dial!

[@anthony23seattle]

Gonky, that was the greatest flyby ever 💪🇺🇸

[@aaronsnatic2446]

What a flyby...😎 and a great parking job!

[@Jutilaje]

Impressive to see the US Navy's finest! (The deckhands. I'm talking about the deckhands obviously).

[@ericl7519]

That was entertaining and funny! I don't care what ANYONE says!

[@chrskelsey74]

This is basically my friend and I in every DCS mission ever.

[@robertlowry]

You guys had me in stitches with this one. Thanks for the laughs, great video.

[@pirate0r]

Any landing where the aircraft is intact enough to eject from is basically perfect. Now all you gotta do is embrace the intrusive thoughts and try it in a Viper...

[@moonasha]

love seeing you two goof off in dcs

[@sabbotharcades]

This definitely reminds me of when Growling Sidewinder and LongShot get together for some ops of some sort.

[@ronneidert]

That was fantastic! BTW, Mover, you're editing is much better that Gonky's... I glad you guys were able to get together and have some fun!

[@pollylewis9611]

I think you did great for the first time and plane issues well or pilot haha, you 2 have so much!

[@jporter504]

Next time, load a sidewinder and pop your lead. Serves him right for strafing you and your "helpers" with 20mm rounds. 😂😂

[@holeshot2809]

Was that an official kill for Gonky?

[@yxeaviationphotog]

OMG.....the first 8 minutes are friggin' hilarious.😂

[@shawn2443]

Too darn funny…… Keep it up bro’s 🇺🇸

[@virtualz]

you guys should play a full campaign from the carrier. It would be hilarious

[@RageQvist]

That was the fastest 14 minutes of my life! More content with gonky goofing around in dcs!

[@shura0107]

I wish I was drinking coffee so when Gonky did the flyby, I could spill my coffee all over myself, then come screaming at the CO that one of his snot-nosed jockeys did a flyby at over 400 knots.

[@fightingfalconfan]

Well...I for one couldn't stop laughing!! From Gonky buzzing him a few times then shooting him before he had a chance to take off then Mover ejecting. Followed by the worst carrier trap I think I have ever seen to braking the jet trying to park and once again ejecting but killing himself landing head first into the island's many radio antenna's.

[@canidsong]

Best thing I watched today. And most of yesterday.

[@TXHusker05]

Mover: "I lost my stick" Me: "So to speak" What have you done to me, Mover?

[@richieismyhero]

I really enjoyed this. More of you and Gonky! You are both so cool and what it means to be fighter pilots!

[@259559ful]

The sims are amazing but you cant replicate the feel of real flying and being there risking your butt

[@baghdaddymike6669]

Awesome! Only thing missing was a certain former LSO and Mustang driver extraordinaire piling on the sh!t talk.

[@Caffeine_Club]

Ejecting into the tower was the icing on the cake. This was great!👍

[@Zer0C00lness]

Enjoyed the video. Lots of fun to watch and listen to the banter.

[@c1ph3rpunk]

As Gonky hits the water running out of fuel waiting on … someone.

[@pyroscot]

Absolutely brilliant, great fun :)

[@jbmbryant]

'Lost my stick.' Forgot where you put it. Great video. Funny as all heck.

[@seancolvin8545]

The backspace key to toggle the stick view. With clean aircraft 12 degree is fine.

[@hippiesandwich]

"Helpers? Were you really in the Navy?" 😅😂

[@DOGosaurus_rex]

that ending was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

[@tigert4058]

Too funny! Thanks for the laughs, guys.

[@AlbaAdventures]

It is great to see the other perspective! Saw Gonky's edit yesterday at Ready Room. LOL.

[@Karibanu]

That landing sequence was perfect! Somehow you have to get Gonky & Ray in the same Tomcat...

[@vincentscarpati21]

Very cool fellows.😅

[@martinrezzy]

that was frikin awesome...i like when the boys play like that...if youre not a wild one you don't deserve to fly a hornet...damn good plane that is,i love it

[@Fox3Hammy]

" ask your people! " this was so great

[@FPAlpha]

The Waldorf and Stadler of naval aviation! Gotta love 'em! 😆

[@markymarc12]

LOVE it!

[@charltoncarter8142]

This was definitely entertainment.

[@bryanholland6987]

*dangling over the Island rig from a parachute* Yeah, we just wanted to redefine what 'shithot' meant, Admiral. ... Um, can I get a ladder, -- or something? Sir?" *Watches as the Admiral talks amongst the Captain before yelling* "we arent going to court martial you, son... This will never go on record, ever. But we're transferring you BOTH to Alaska following an addendum to your new Yankee White clearance that comes with the heftiest non-disclosure agreement you've ever had to sign! THIS NEVER HAPPENED!" *Watches the senior staff exit the deck.* "About the ladder? SIR?!"

[@JimmyD_C172]

Nice rejoin Mover...as for the landing, It'll buff out...

[@Doubleelforbes]

Sorry man but ...... I loved Gonky's goin' in for guns moment.

[@Blackmoon9u9]

This time gonky make his real return in DCS

[@Novacngood185]

Fantastic. Just proves men never grow up. 👍

[@jporter504]

"Nailed it" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ninjabearpress2574]

Thank you for reminding me why I don't play these games. What I wouldn't give for an old arcade version of G-LOC.

[@zezaekrael]

And here I was thinking my power slide 360+ on the runway was hilarious.😂

[@adriantalks148]

Mover, when the F/A-18D comes out by IDF Mods Project will you and Gonky play it since it’s multicrew?

[@amench400]

I'd love to see y'all try a full mission of some kind

[@JBSmoke1]

LMAO! Gonky picks on the nugget! Love it!

[@compman0678]

More with Gonky!! Mover and Gonky are a riot!!! this is so damm funny!

[@Toph.Beifong.]

You guys are quite a fun duo lol

[@Why-ct6kz]

lol , well played guys very enjoyable , "Whats all this noise" lmao

[@brianmontgomery1619]

That was hysterical! You guys kill me. If I were you, I would do the same thing and have fun. Who give's a shit what the DCS guys say.

Have you seen the Hornet that tried to do a cobra maneuver and crashed in Zaragoza? what do you think could have happened?

[@Lochaby]

Well, the shit was indeed served hot.

DCS meets Hot Shots lol

[@edr8915]

you guys fly like me and my buddy... "im just trying to park next to ya!" ... lol

Good stuff guys! keep it coming!!

[@Garythefireman66]

This was freaking hysterical 😂

[@icaleinns6233]

I saw this pop up and I was thinking "Mover and Gonky playing a video game with F/A-18's and a carrier. What could POSSIBLY go wrong?" This is right up there with the Growling Sidewinder 2 Morons videos!! Great work!😂
