A co-worker just sent me this wmv of a carrier landing. I don't think that it has been on here .. if so, it's still fun to watch again. It definately would be a cool place to fly...(minus the war part).

Reminds me of my landing at Pittstown, Crooked Island, Bahamas in 2004.
Felt just like that carrier landing.

Every time I watch a vid of a carrier landing I find myself holding my breath.

You should be in the "crow's nest" watching them. I never grew tired of it. Nights were the best.

Unfortunately, I only experienced a cat shot in the back of a Greyhound. But, it was still more than I was expecting.
 
Avalon, (Catalina Island) Calif or Telluride, Colo are also about as close to landing on an aircraft carrier as you can get on dry land... just a little bit longer!
 
Nice Flying Bob!

Hmmm........ Was it me..... or did that fantail bob up and down, and roll to one side?? I could'a sworn......:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :)

This is as close as I come to a carrier landing. I have posted this before so you probably have seen it. It can be a thrill but the land isn't moving like the ship is. Bob

looks like fun ... thanks for posting it, Bob!
 
Nope. Hoover ... Warthog's don't have tail hooks strong enough for a carrier arrested landing.
