Lmao fuck yea

Yeah I guess those G’s are pretty high when you come to a sudden stop 🛑 as you ram the fire hydrant !!!

You are a funny man😆

Roger that

On two wheels…

especially at night

I can. :)

Right. Especially when there’s no room for error. Incredible skills.

You can do it too after you’ve been trained.

For real, the path is hard to be there!

Keep in mind planes flew pretty slow back then. Always a progression of both skills and technology. Analogy, kids and skateboards. Im 61, got the first skateboard with urethane wheels when I was about 11. It was a big deal just hanging on going down a hill. In the 80s and 90s pros started getting air, doing kickflips. Now every 5 year old on my block is doing that shit. Or how about EVH playing eruption in 1977... Now 8 yo girls do it on youtube.

Really. Talk about making something as simple as a sling shot and creating this. Awesome.

You must have a very smooth brain because it makes absolute sense to do that.

@drewdurant3835 my brain be smooth mister

I believe it was the British that built the first Air Craft Carrier during world war 1

And dark? The ultimate pucker factor.

No moon light either

@@derekedge2089 that's what at night means.

With the kraken lurking about

You got that rite man, a rare breed indeed

The men & women of our arm forces are the BEST..

If think that's amazing watch them going down the freeway sometime zoom zoom.

It's the equipment. Without the equipment, you have no "rare breed". Period. -SGT Reyes- Out!

@@nomore1371 The equipment does not land itself it is not a fly by wire completely without that skill of landing on a moving rolling yawing target

If they miss the cable they need the speed.

That's why US Naval Aviators are the finest pilots in the world.

My dad did that in a giant E2C Hawkeye

Good point, It looks like he's coming in impossibly fast 😂

The video replay has been sped up by quite a bit, maybe 2x maybe more.

​@@jstephenallington8431good point I didn't realize until you mentioned it but you're right.

they have to come in fast in case they miss the wire. if they're not going fast enough they'll fall off the end of the carrier runway into the ocean. if they go this fast they can stay up and try to land again

And if your one of them, thank you for your service.

Any talented fighter pilot from wherever he is can do this dude, in any weather and sea condition, you don't have to be a naval aviator of the american armed forces. Sorry that I piss on your parade.

@@Xidentals🤣🤣🤣🤣 no they can’t. Nice try though.

@@tombrady7517 You haven't the expertise to assess that.

Hell yeah mine too dammit!

@@chadklaren9537 Amen bro.

I love how American this thread is 🇺🇸

@@chadklaren9537 fr pal!

me and the misses … nightly

If only sex was as successful as this

except the speed of one of the two objects (the plane) is such that the speed of the ship is almost 0 relative to it. so I think it’s harder catching the right arresting cable than actually aligning with the carrier

@@AlexdAviator You're on the right track with relativity, but the speed of the carrier is NOT almost zero relative to the speed of the plane. If it was, they'd have the same speed, and the plane would never catch up to the carrier. If the speed of the carrier was 20 knots and the wind was blowing at 25 knots, then the 'relative' approach and touchdown groundspeeds of the plane would be reduced by 45 knots vs. a no-wind approach to a land runway. Headwinds help, and the speed of the carrier into the wind helps additionally.

Its like docking spacecraft in orbit

The video is playing on FF. (fast forward)

Hes done that once or twice...

Video was sped up 10 X

@@Kayaz48 more like 2-4x but you’re right it’s sped up

Lol WTF

The most bad ass thing is...... carrier landings AT NIGHT.

You mean flying?

Agreed

@@ralphowens4510 being able to launch and land planes from anywhere in the world

They have to be fast, cause if they miss the hook they will just fall into the water

@@snagz4350 Damn. I wonder how insane that feels to catch the hook and decelerate from 100-whatever to 0 in that amount of space. It must be INTENSE.

Cameras sped up like 3x

​@@snagz4350 120km 👍

They do come in fast, but I believe the film speed has been increased!

Stressful on the airframe too.

I'm guessing those pressure suits come into play to stop the internal organs from crashing into the rib cage.

@@roxyla69 Pressure suits are for pilots flying at high altitudes and tackling G-force effects on the body. I was referencing more the repeated hard and fast landing specifically. Can’t imagine this to be an easy job at all.

@@norahelaine6041 I stand corrected 😂🙏❤️

That would be a very large dime.

奶思

Eric Brown was badass 2271 times

Actually everyone can land on a carriers. What makes a difference is what happens next to the jet, the carrier and everyone else on the carrier.

@@taozheng4772 Still I don't think *everyone* can land on a carrier even regardless of *how*. Pretty sure many cannot even make it near the carrier.

Yes, who made it at night is the best🤙

Wow youre right

Thanks! Didn't.

?!

Yeap

Yup, watch how fast his head moves during

Good look

At night in bad weather too. Even the female naval aviators have balls.

Prolly use ir or heat markers etc

How about during a storm with waves?

At night and in bad weather they have a different landing procedure where they fly in straight from a distance. They also have automatic landing capability where the plane and carrier talk to each other and land the plane completely hands free. Much like commercial airliners can do at airports.

Thank you for spreading Wokeism around the world.

He's doing a fly around to look to see if it's clear and come in slower

Because other countries dont have fighter jets? Lmao

They should be no other country spends 750 billion a year on defense and doesn’t even pay for it. War machine hooo ahhh!

There are many boys much better than your boys lol

I forgot only USA has got pilots... hits hard :(

It's the equipment. Without it, there is no "best of the best". Facts!

A bit? *Snort* Do you get out much ?

No, the the jet is fast..

@@pongsokipz1996 Keep your day job.

@@pongsokipz1996 yes the jet is fast. But not during landing. It would be next to impossible to land at these speeds

@@dkortman6496 probably break the cables 😂

Facts I done it hand full times in a video game and it’s hard. Real life got to be something else and knowing you got once chance or your at best having a not so fun conversation with your supervisor

HOME OF THE BRAVE!!

This video is sped up. But yeah you’re still right though. If you don’t believe me look at a carrier landing from a reputable UKposts channel

I've been around several of those guys. The calmness that is ingrained in them while learning to make those fast decisions is truly amazing by itself. Ice water in their veins!

Awesomeness performance

And they do it also at night - in all weather.

Wna a rush he must get!

It would be more beautiful to watch if it was in real speed

Great, now you are part of world history 👏

I trained with them stateside on Roosevelt Rhodes Naval Air Station in Puerto Rico. I was assigned to a US Air Force F-16 wing and we were training to fly with the Marine F-18s. We had F-4s with us too

In eighty five I was with the 37 transportation group, 24th trans battalion, 109th trans company in Manheim West Germany. It was just too awesome!!!

U see any tic tacs ?

​@@sams9732 eff off. Everyone on this planet is part of world history.

👎🏿🤮💩

@Watcher505 why does gen z think they rule the platform

Thanks for the insight. I appreciate the complexity, alrighty, anyone with enough sense to pour piss out of a boot would, but you filled in a gap for me. I imagined that the turn was only a SOP flyover to check the landing strip for himself.

It's sped up that bank is quite standard you think that's high skill then ask a red bull acrobatic pilot how many G's they pull

​@@leehaelters6182exactly it's just a visual pass to check for runway clearance and to bleed off some speed

@@glennoc8585, I copy that info, thank you for taking the time, Glenn!

ukposts.info/have/v-deo/e6afl4Cueq6pt2Q.html

I don't believe we would see much in the dark of night. All landings whether by day or night are instrument assisted using some sort of glidescope to direct the pilot. He/she has to say "I got the ball" and a man on deck has to agree or the pilot has to go around. Also, we shoudn't expect the deck to resemble a Christmas tree as it's a ship of war that needs to hide wherever possible from potential enemies.

Especially compared to most commonly landed planes. every pilot starts on a c150/152 which is like 40mph stall lol

@@wilurbean yeah and these go damn near Mach 2

The video is obviously sped up

They are older then 20's🤣

@@AKFF320 Not always

A navy fighter pilot is no less than a lieutenant. Need a four year degree and 6 year service minimum to begin simulator training. Usually 33-34 years old at first solo flight. Even higher for ships deck. Generally 10 years of flying then become commanders. It's a 20 year inlist minimum.

​​@@jaydensdream714on't they start training from the moment they to military college? If they go in at 18, graduate at 22 then it's feasible they could be training in jets by 25. I knew a guy in England that joined the RAF in the 80s and he was flying Jaguars after only a couple of years going from a single prop trainer to a twin then to fighter. There was no degree perse you just went into officer training at the airforce equivalent to Sandhurst i believe. It's moved more to a bachelor degree in pretty much everything now so it doesn't surprise me if it takes longer to get into a jet or any military aircraft but I've seen American fighter pilots that are Still in their 20s. There's no long enlistment required that not true not sure where you got that from; Commercial airlines in America have loads of ex military guys and gals in their 30s the same with many countries. You can't fly combat in fighters after about 40

@@glennoc8585 I never said there are enlistment requirements. Generally speaking you can't enlist for flight training that takes 30 months if your only enlisted for the next 30 months that's all. Along with that I'm just referring the the general rule if someone is a fighter pilot then there enlistment is for 10 years minimum. Most pilots fly 2-3 Yeats them go on to civilian life but a vast majority continue being training pilots or perhaps officer training. Also vast majority go on to be commercial pilots for one reason, money. 60-70k most you make but pilot for UPS makes 200k easy...

Can you imagine a battle scenario (?

So cool

Because the footage is sped up. Plus those jets catch a rope that stops them, otherwise they'd never stop on the deck by themselves.

@@iseriver3982 yes the owner of the video confirmed it’s sped up to x1.75

Ise...it's not a rope. It's a big ass steel cable, and they've been known to snap and cut crew members to their death.

Yeah! That sudden stop sure impressed me much.

I agree

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👌

Maybe it was Pizza night.

mega man Also "For those who don’t know". as the ship, especially during rough seas, can be going up and down, a lot, the pilot Does Not want to see the the back of the ship in his line of sight, just before attempting to land.. It could turn out to be a bad day.

Another thing ppl don't know, ya go to full power when you touch down, in case you miss all the wires and have to go around.

REALLY? WE HAD NO IDEA. THANKS SUPER INFOMAN. Next: Water is wet. Ice is cold.

@@johnlucier5654 not everyone is a plane fan dumb-nutsack

Does poop really come out of your butthole? Never knew this

Except the ship's wake is about 10 degrees right of the final heading, and the carrier is constantly moving forward, so the landing spot is continuously moving slightly to the right as you approach. Takes a lot of skill and practice. Hat's off to these guys

I noticed that too. Level flight for 3 seconds maybe?

Maybe about 8 seconds after watching for a second time

He had plenty of time. The birds stack in the pattern and usually approach the boat downwind along the port side before hooking left and lining up with the LA. As long as he's go with fuel onboard, airspeed, flaps, gear, and hook, all he has to do is guide it and adjust throttle. It is quick, but a few seconds can last a long time. It's like when you come to a stop at an intersection in a car. You are steering, letting off the gas, and applying the brakes quite quickly with minor and gradual adjustments which you have practiced sufficiently to stop the car smoothly behind the line. Or at least I hope you're a good enough driver to do this.

@@jasonmoyer9492 12secs at normal speed.

I didn't hear him call the ball. Didn't even see it either

This video is sped up. From the time he turns to the time he lands would take between 2 and 3 mins.

Well if you're straight and level and not accelerating, you're not pulling any g's...

It's a 30 second youtube short... it HAS TO BE SPED UP to fit!! F'k people are stupid.

147KTS to be exact. Far less than 300mph. Thanks for playing.

@@LOD365 no I agree the plane was doing 147knts. I was meaning with the screen sped up it looked like 300mph.

Jeff Bruns. In case something goes wrong with the tailhook or the cables, the pilot has to be able to fly off the end of the carrier and stay airborne.

It's sped up. It's kinda embarrassing you didn't realise that to be honest.

That’s what I was thinking, sped up for sure based on the head movements, the speed he took that bank at and the speed he landed on the carrier unless he was trying to kill everyone lol

Посмотри на Русских летчиков!!!Твои американские покажутся детьми!!!Русские лётчики и самолёты лучшие в мире,их не возможно сбить!!!

Yeah,you keep dreaming! Do research on dreamers such as you that actually even come close to becoming pilots in the armed forces. Just coming close, not even the ones that make it to flight school and graduate, which is very, very HARD!!!!!!!!! You give it your all kiddo, but chances are you'll just be an officer with a story most people won't even be interested in hearing. You can still become a pilot though, and fly dog shit out of Hong Kong,lol,lol.

@@RIVERANIEVESZ Currently in Science engineering in college and attending the AFROTC at another university. But what you stated might also be a reality lol. I'd rather die knowing I tried than have never tried at all.

He was looking at the landing lights….

but it was taught.

@@rwisswell Are you talking about the lights that direct the pilot to land?

@@rwisswell perception is taught is it?? I'm not sure about that mate. Is a skill that you learn from experience. I also believe that perception is instinctual to a certain degree. What do you think?

​@@jonnywilkinyou can only let instinct take control when youve learned the skills. That said not everyone who wants to fly gets to fly in the navy, and not everyone who gets USN wings goes on to an F18 carrier unit. (And not every one of them will be accepted to the Blue Angels) So with all that in mind you are both correct. Instinct alone might get you a VFR rating in a Cessna. If your daddy is an admiral you might even get your wings and keep them long enough to get shot down on a bombing run over hanoi, while the rest of your squadron followed standing orders and made it back safely. Thats another subject, but I like heroes that dont get shot down.
