I watched videos like this in the Navy. Before going to Avionics A School we all went to a two week aviation fundamentals school where we were taught safety and operations of aircraft on a carrier. I ended up in a land based squadron but still used the lessons learned for fueling and be the guy with the wands parking or starting an aircraft and tying them down.

I wish you had the training video regarding mooring lines and arresting gear wire safety. The video we were shown in training after boot camp was fairly graphic. Although in black and white it showed incidents were people were cut in half or lost their legs to parting lines.

A ‘mishap’ is when I spill my coffee. Not crashing a 30 million dollar jet into an aircraft carrier. 😂
@jonathanstancil85442 жыл бұрын
The Navy calls them "mishaps" because the prevailing theory is that an accident implies a failure of something beyond human control. Most carrier aviation mishaps are caused by human error. Many times it is the pilot, occasionally it's deck crew, occasionally it is maintenance related, but most of them happen because someone wasn't doing their job properly.
@kennethdeanmiller73242 жыл бұрын
Actually, a lot of carrier aviation was trial & error. AND if a plane had been shot up and there was a "mishap", it's because people were doing their job, including our enemies!!

In Tom Wolfe''s "The Right Stuff" one of the pilots eplains how it really feels to land on an aircraft carrier. It is a bit less simple than the narrator tells.

@davenehilla9610 Жыл бұрын
The ejections you see when the aircraft was rolled to anywhere near a 90 attitude, including the A-7 that ended up hanging from the flight deck, were fatal. Zero zero seats meant zero pitch and zero roll. Thus the importance of ejecting prior to rolling off of the flight deck.
@randykelso407910 ай бұрын
Zero zero seats mean zero altitude and zero airspeed required. Nobody ejects at a perfectly level roll angle and pitch angle simultaneously. If it could be done, it would be an accident. In the old days the early seats required a minimum altitude and a minimum airspeed to execute a successful ejection.

*7:15** I'm trying to figure out the drop your hook thing. Hoping to snag or create friction?*
@jonathanstancil85442 жыл бұрын
It's a signal to the deck crew that the aircraft has no brakes and is trying to stop. The pilot will raise the hook after trappig to keep from snagging anything. If he or she loses brakes they drop the hook as a visual signal to the deck crew. They also transmit to the controller that theyve lost brakes, but the deck crew cant hear the radio so the message must be relayed from the controller to the deck crew. Alert deck crew will hopefully see that and react by chocking the wheels or stopping the aircraft through other methods.

Precisely because WWII recordings are film and the 60/70's are video which was rather primitive in the early days.

This film has to be meant to awe the general public. The info it presents is so incredibly basic I can't believe it's meant for real carrier pilots! If they haven't had these procedures drilled into them before setting foot on a carrier, there's something seriously wrong with naval aviation training.

The only thing that saved him was his flashlight got sucked up first. A split second later, the guy went with it. The pilot felt it and shut it down. A few seconds later, he comes crawling out!😳 No matter how big they build carriers, they are cramped quarters on every level.
