Very nice Wyandot Jim, but the fact remains you would have to get me drunk, drugged and unconscious to even get me on the ship much less the aircraft.

I'm thankful they are on our side though and appreciate the years out of their lives they spend out of love of country.

Wow, thanks for the ride Jim. What's your son going to do when he has to grow up and get a job? :D
Maverick sure liked to buzz the tower. :shock:

Cool stuff. My son helped keep those birds flying off Enterprise on her next to last cruise.
They are both retired now.

Great video.
I had to wonder a bit. On the carrier landings, it appeared as if it was done by computer, not the pilot. And I also saw a few moments where the cyclic was not being touched during flight. Thoughts Jim?

You were watching the GIB-Guy In Back.
The takeoff is done by computer.
