This is 10x better than any documentary. The sound so raw and dynamic. The lack of any editing lets you really understand just how much time passes between each arrival (which is actually very little). Cool that you can see the next 2-ships in the overhead just as the previous guy is on final. Great stuff, thanks for posting.
That makes no sence
Eight traps in eight minutes and the deck crew has paractically nothing to do. Another perfect day in the navy. :respect:
Good weather and calm sea's no doubt make a huge difference.
There are 2000 OOD on board he Just didn't asked the right guy

FUCK THE NAVY, I’m going to the army
A soviet Commander hope you know you get to work with them so remember that.
4:50 looks like a close call to me haha
This was little scary was about to quote this time stamp and found your comment already.
Lol yeah
I thought they where all the same (looped) thx for the pin
It was a landing like any other

Should hold up score cards to rate the pilots on their landings 😄
That's why they have "greenie boards" in the squadron ready rooms.
larry mcintyre are you a pilot in the Navy? How did you like it?
4:50 definitely got a bad rating

I knew it, he's fine. He just changed jobs. God bless.
Unfortunately hes currently a vegetable in a deep coma. Hopefully he recovers, but hes been like that for years now.

Fun fact: before they hit the rope they actually mash the throttle just incase they miss it so they are able to keep going airborne and try again. If they didnt do this then they would fall into the sea
ohburgerking true, because throttle doesnt respond like a gas pedal in a car. If u push the throttle up you would only notice that effect a couple of seconds after u performed the action
Are those cables spring loaded?

Thanks for the info. I will check it out. Very impressive. 100 mph to 0 in about 3 seconds. Good grief.
Rookie mistake :>
I can't believe how close these jets are to each other on the approach... Such professionalism all round, great job!
UK Aviation Movies didnt even know that word existed
I would shit my pants to land this thing on such a tiny ship... not that I could fly at all but that’s just the pure imagination. 😂
Wish I knew which carrier this was. I'd giv 'em a BIG FAT 'BZ'!
Just saw a comment below saying it was CVN-69, Way to GO Ike! BZ!
I can do 100mph to zero in my car in leas than 2 seconds. All I need is my car and a solid concrete wall.

The plane landing at 4:50 I thought was going to crash with the angle it hit the deck at
Why
Looked like it was about to tip
@@ploppyjr2373 gears have suspension so when landing it's soft. In that landing there is a thick rope on the deck to catch the jet from falling then as you can see the jet bowed because of the thick rope that catched the jet from falling off the carrier.
@@sethjansson5652 not it wasn't. It's just because of the jet that was too fast and the thick rope that catched the jet from falling off the carrier.
@Aditya Bajania it is because of the jet that was too fast and the thick rope that catches the jet from falling of the carrier.
Smooth landing 5:52
4:50 not so smooth
Correct me if I am wrong but wouldn’t you want to make a more firm landing to actually make contact with the wires?
Colderco good point, would like to know it too
I’m a smooth criminal no Michael Jackson all I wanna do is just beat it
@@jehhh8470 Well I do believe that Legacy Hornet pilots were taught to make firm contact with all three in order to catch the wire, but these are probably Rhinos and I know they do a few things differently (like takeoff). I could also be completely off lol, I just know from DCS and interest in naval aviation that they do Hornets that way
I read the title as " from 0 to 100 miles per hour in 0 seconds. I was about to come down here and correct the title but then I realized that I'm stupid

Me too. This is the complete opposite of what I expected.
Hey me too
Same haha
Me too
LOL XD at 5:10 you see a guy going like screw it running across the deck
*running across the deck*
Guy: "Fuck this shiiiiiiiiiiit"
Pretty sure it was a code “brown” moment...
Wow a guy running across. So funny
If you walked across there during flight ops you would get yelled at.
HOOLLLYYYYY SHIEEEETTTT
Not sure how I found this but as a civi who's never seen this stuff in real life...this stuff is badass!
Now I know what really happened to michael schumacher. He got a job in the US navy!
haha I thought this too!
Well spotted. I thought something about him looked familiar, couldn't place it till I read your comment. Funny stuff!
You'd think he'd would've gotten a job as a fighter pilot
Not Air Force?
I would tell everyone back home working on the fight deck of an Aircraft Carrier was the second most dangerous job in the world. When they asked me what was first, I told them working on it at Night in total darkness ! ABE2 Lipiec, V-2 Division Catapults, USS JFK CV-67, 77-80. GO NAVY !!!!!!!!
Thank you for your service.
Not to be disrespectful but those would be the 2nd and third most dangerous jobs in the world. I still say commercial fishing near Alaska is number 1
The most dangerous is not about what job, but what is the casualities ( injuries and/or death) per hour of work in average of the job...
Doing it on night in total darkness seems really dangerous but if its accidents are rare ( Idk ) , is it really dangerous ?
Great video, thank you all for your service U.S.Navy men and women.
My husbands old ship, and l had the privilege of being on the flight deck and watching the jets launch and come back. (Dependant's cruise). They are truly awesome. God bless the Ike and all who sail with her.
🇺🇲👍
No matter how many times I see one of these vids, I never cease to be impressed by these pilots and deck crew.
Dang that rope or wire or whatever it’s called is really strong
Yes, but still it gets replaced after certain amount of landing is done.
Didn’t realize the two F18s in the top left corner at 0:01
No internet Dinosaur they fly by again at 2:30
They have such little amount of time to touchdown yet they land so soft, smooth, buttery and greasy!👍
The time elapse of each turn around for landing, crew set up, for each jet is impeccable. Each, approximately 1 minute apart. It’s like turnovers for surgery and/or NASCAR pit stop. Great teamwork. 👍🏽
I believe this is the Eisehower. I served aboard the Carrier Nimitz CVN-68. Seen this activity many times,but never gets old.
Thanks for sharing!
High Rail-62 I too served on Nimitz...78-81..fly one PO

Very cool to be able to see flight deck operation up close. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome video and no crapy ass music. Just the real sound of the atmosphere around you. Great job ! Thanks to all for your service.

@william coe ok
@william coe damn
@william coe did it scar you?
Dude.. love your vids man. A whole new perspective people usualy don't (want to) see. Cool to see it from this perspective. I have to say, never thought the recoveryrate and launchrate (from antother video) is that high.
My first fighter jets needed a platform at sea ,so I built it with my blueprint and union iron workers,I brought my family from the Navajo reservation to show them the first one built and finished in San Diego harbour. Thanks for your service duty.
Was an ABH on the USS Coral Sea CV43 from 1984 to 1988 and it was awesome!
spent some good years on that flight deck... I would love to do it all over again !!!
If I could do it 9 to 5 Monday through Friday, it would be the perfect job. Wait, I have to add clear and warm weather too.
Now those are the kind of cables you use in your friends when they say “hold me back bro.” 😂
haha lol

@@JakeThePro2017 lmfao haahahaha
The flight computer on board must have an absolute seizure during this
Lmao what?
TheOneThatFlies Filler the f18 has a very complex flight computer and what it does is keep the plane as stable as possible. And even though it has a setting to for takeoff landing etc etc, it must still panic when it hits the carrier deck and must send the control surfaces into a panic induced twitch
@@ryanm.191 Interesting, i'm sure there is some way to set it to carrier landings/takeoffs
TheOneThatFlies Filler as I said there is a setting, but it only sets the planes computer to deal with the approach as it is a FLIGHT computer. It’s not capable of dealing with the hard hitting landing and rapid deceleration and fluctuations in pitch that carrier landings cause
@@ryanm.191 Ah, right I see
Good job. Thanks for posting.
So much love and respect for the flyboys/girls and the support crew of the Navy for dedicating their lives to protect our freedoms! 😉🙂💪🇺🇸🇺🇸
That brown shirt has got some nice bling chains on him lol
it's amazing how close they are landing to the other F18s parked on the side
Excellent job showing what flight deck is like. will you record night operations? keep up the good work.
Amazing how quickly they can recover those airborne aircraft,... just one after another !
Surreal footage, love the raw sound of the jet and that whining sound on the background, feels I am atop of those carriers
Heh, it's kind of like watching a video or video game of someone dying to some extent; you don't get the iron smell of blood, flies or the dryness of their eyes just as you don't get the literal deafening sound of these jets without their afterburners. ;)
Thanks for these great flight deck shots

Those F18's landing were not nearly as loud or dramatic as I would have thought. Such proficiency!
Prowlers were the loudest from my experience.
That’s perfect landings and speedy!
Holy shit, the video quality. What camera are you using? because this looks gorgeous!
Roondar Murnig probs a go pro.
why have to toss away the "rope" during the hoist-back? What's on that area?
I have zero experience or knowledge, so this is my best guess.
I’m assuming it’s to do with the cables crossing over eachother, and the crew guy is preventing it from getting stuck or something.
Again, this is a GUESS. I have ZERO clue what the reason is.
I got the reason it is meant to stop the plane on time so it does not fall off the carrier that's why
Red Arcade Zone 2
You didn’t read the original question. We know the cables are to stop the plane. We’re asking why they have to TOSS IT OVER the other cable, when they’re pulling it back.
My best guess: the rope has some sort of "knot" in it( that's exactly where he's tossing the rope). During the hoist back if the cable's approach is perpendicular (or out of axis) it could get stuck half-way and lack tension to stop the next air craft.

Fantastic view of what goes on in your job.
THATS MY OLD SHIP!!!!! You can see my Hawkeyes! Funny to think I'm up there somewhere
Ok
Small world, big ship
The start of every go pro video ever starts the same “IS IT RECORDING”
absolutely amazing!
Great stuff
All these comments.. not one respecting the pilots that do this they have balls of steel
A fighter pilot doesn't get in a filter jet. He straps one on his back!
Spent 7 years AD in the Navy, got out as an AW2. I did four deployments on carriers and I can tell you right now, there is no country on earth that can match this, NOT ONE. If leaders of other countries really knew (some do) the real capabilities of the US Navy, they would never open their mouths again...
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Did 4 years on the Ike (the ship in this video) as an ABE on Cat 1and 2 and agree with you completely. Our capabilities are 2nd to none. I pray it stays that way.
I’m sorry to point out that hypersonic missiles and ballistic missiles from shore launchers can reach carriers. Pure number of them will overwhelm Aegis and CAP. The carrier fleet is a power projection and peacetime show-the-flag, but certain long range missiles and access denial warfare will cripple the carrier groups.
The speed at which the aircraft appear from the horizon is terrifying
That corpsman has a sweet job.
best job in the Navy
HM's also known as the Pecker Checkers.
Actually that's a Green Cross known as Safety Department.
I wonder how often that arrester cable is changed?
The CDP (the cable above the deck)at 100 traps... the cable below that Reeves the engine at 1000... they are both constantly checked and can be changed out early if necessary.
We just gunna ignore the mad max looking guy with a cape of chains. So badass😂😂
That's AWESOME😆😆 What job😆😆 Great video and MASSIVE RESPECT FROM THE UK😆Your all doing a fantastic job😆
i would give anything to spend a few days working on that deck.
+stephen holmes Just take your oath and sign on the dotted line.
DRAWINGFLIES I tried but they said that a permit to work just the US and legal residency is not enough to join the Navy. Apparently I must be a US citizen to join even though I've lived pretty much my entire life in California and even though I said I'm willing to die for my country (USA) if that's what it takes to pay back for everything it's given me. You know like education.
Get citizenship....
sadly i am 49 years of age
Yeah, Guess ya wont be joining up then. I did my time on CV66.
What is that folded helicopter thing
Starshootex a helicopter
Just a fast question. What is the oblong hole in the middle of their backs of the vest? Is it for ventilation or if you need to pull someone back (in the case of an emergency or in danger), you will have a way to grab hold of the person and pull them back?
Awesome work servicemen. 🤟🇨🇦
That guy has at least 100 pounds of chains on his back jeez
He doesn't actually work there... he's homeless, and just goes around stealing chains that are laying around. Used to be a dentist.

What do you mean was
Served on the mighty IKE from '16 to '19. Some of my best and worst memories were on that ship.
Great videos, maybe some commentary on what is happening would be nice, thanks for uploading this
Incredibly high recovery rate close to 1 per minute, commendable
I just wanna know how it feel to be there...
Crammed cruise ship with the only activity being planespotting
I don't think it's comfortable like you thought, even my dad when he testing car with it's speed, etc that my dad worked before it's tiring, lot of bumps, vibration from vehicle, etc.. I can't imagine jet though, probably the bad example because the best way is to ask one of the pilots or pilot's friend.. maybe lot of active engine feeling? 🤷🏻♀️
And also y- oh wait you don't need to learn, just sit in there for a while and that's it. If they allow you XD (even that ship)
I said "Whatever" to myself... I tried here
☹️
60 seconds in between one landing and the next. that is a well oiled war machine
It's hard to tell who's king of the "greenie" board in this squadron. Everyone is grabbing three wires! Very impressive!
No man has a right to brag untill he's done a carrier landing...
The guy who gave this number 69 mustve played GTA San Andreas. Everythings 69. Runway? 69
Area? 69
And the carrier itself
What is the guy in the green West doing with the cable goes back?
I’m loving the new Top Gun
What would it take for a 70 year old man to be there to see this live...right beside you as you are recording?
HondaGoldwingGL1800 a miracle
i think being that close to those cables scarry i heard if one breaks it can cut a guy in half
Jacob Schwertfeger yes it can cut someone in half but one time the cable snapped people had to jump so they could keep their feet
i cant remember but i think i did see the footage of that
Jacob Schwertfeger You know back in my days we used to see training videos of people getting sliced in half when a cable broke... I saw one video where 4 people got cut in one way or another .. but it seems in the last 30 yrs or so people have gotten much better at dodging it... It's definitely something to pay attention to !!
wow i guess they call it the worlds most dangerous job for a reason
all the work they've done lately they better be getting better at it lol :))))
