Fair winds and following seas to our sailors, proudly served onboard USS EISENHOWER, CVN-69 as a Radioman and currently retired.
Thanks to all our military personnel. Bravo Zulu, carry on and job well done. Stay safe.
Perfect timing for me to watch as I wait outside the VA for my Uncle's funeral. Incredible teamwork! Go Military 🇺🇸
Amazing world class training for these young men and women. My son is in the navy and am proud to be a navy mom. HOOYAH ⚓🚢⚓🚢
I was a Naval Airman (Blue Coat) Tractor Driver/ Chockman onboard HMS Ark Royal Fixed Wing Carrier Royal Navy in the 70s. Awesome Times
Go Navy! Both my parents were in the Navy. Such a mean machine for sure!
This video was NOT a “day in the life” of a USN pilot on board a carrier.
How so?
@@jackschatzle4217it’s a day-in-the-life of the carrier…not the humans
Not even a day in the life of a carrier. Not even sure if it was about Navy or Air Force pilots. Very convoluted script.
@@notapplicable761 No I agree with him, the script was all over the place, and not about the day to day life of a naval pilot. It mentioned the airforce several times even.
Kiowa1508? Wrong
Awesome video! Thanks. Been looking for a video like this for a while
I'M SO PROUD OF ALL OF THEM
if youre thinking about going down this path TAKE A THOROUGH EYE EXAM BEFORE YOU EVEN TALK TO A RECRUITER. I was accepted for a Student Naval Flight Officer slot and got one month into training at OCS and was told I could not fly due to an eye condition they found called Keratoconus. Go to an optometrist before you even apply because the eye exams they do at MEPS do not catch these type of conditions.
Very good advice. Does this still apply to individuals such as myself who plan on having Lasik eye surgery?
It’s amazing the amount of training that they go through. First the basic physical training and then the more advanced training to learn how to operate an aircraft using a very advanced flight simulator and eventually to actually operating an aircraft in real life.
I wonder about this,that eventually the sheer amount of training these guys need will burn them out before they finish the courses. Will the day come when they are just too tired to fly the super aircraft evolving each year? How much can you learn in a certain time?
Incredible teamwork!
Go Military 🇺🇸
Magnífico 🇧🇷
Goodperfomance. Thanks.
Cảm ơn rất nhiều thank you so much
It amazes me me how all this training can be given to a pilot while he is still young enough to fly! When will the time come when just too much training is necessary to pilot ever more advanced aircraft? Will drones become the standard battlefield aircraft?
t34c is retired since 2010 , now the aircraft is t-6b texan 2
So proud my son is among the most elite of our armed forces...my dude is the shit,,,,!!!!!!
My son also flys for the Navy (F-18)
What? Does he drop bombs on 3rd world people?
A lifetime is too short..maybe in my next life I can remember I would very much like to be an aircraft carrier fighter pilot....if possible please
Awesome 👍 video! 👌💪
I’ll give you a run down from my float on the Roosevelt. Pilots would have a nice state room, eat quality food in the officers mess, have enlisted pick up, do their laundry, fold it and bring it back. They’d have tons of popcorn and coffee in the ready room. Hit the gym, do some flight ops, stand duty. Get off the ship first, every port call and get first dibs on every hotel thanks to MWR’s system.
How rare is it for someone that gets an Aviation slot at OCS to become a pilot?
l spend you respect and heavy responsibility to have big power. take care of U .
f/a 18s are so beautiful.😍
The F-35 info about LAFB is absolutely true lol it’s an air show daily over my house out here in Waddell, AZ
Really enjoyed the video and information.
Very nice 🇨🇵👍
As a student naval aviator, this video is truly all over the place. Not really a day in the life of a Naval Aviator lol.
What did they get wrong, and what's it really like, then??
$13 Billion I was expecting the Gerald Ford not steam catapults
Then they proceeded to show Air Force pilots lol. Not even the branch they're trying to showcase. At least put some more effort into the content...
Loved the video, however there was more about training prior to being on a flight deck rather than being "A day in the Life of US Navy Pilots on a $13 Billion Aircraft Carrier". I would still like to see the video of "A day in the Life"
Went from the pilot getting to the aircraft to then a debris check and then checking the aircraft😂
I need a winning lottery ticket for buying this advanced f35 simulator..I am modest, if the helmet isnt needed ,I can do without.
powerful US military👍💪💪💪
Naval Aviators are among the douchiest humans on the planet.
...I worked with them all day, everyday.
Haha they mixed up the footage quite a bit. When they talked about ocs they were showing footage from the academy. When they talked about the academy they showed footage from ocs. I went to ocs in 2021.
"How to become a fighter pilot"... I assume. Anyway, great video
muito bom.
It’s an informative and well made video, however, it’s by no means a day in the life of navy aviator on an aircraft carrier, rather it’s about how a navy pilot is selected and trained to become an officer pilot.
When I see "Lt. Col." on the aircraft canopy can I assume that is a Marine pilot?
I was a yellow shirt on the flight deck of the Nimitz for 5 years. The thumb nail of this video gave me cancer , the plane is landing on the bow , (the wrong direction) and there is a director ( yellow shirt) standing in the "landing zone"
I can't
This is the reason why US army is the best in the world. Amazing training way
8:28 Whats a T34C doing at VFA 122 --- the Super Hornet FRS
Can't imagine that the Indian or Chinese Carriers have anything close to this level of capability.
Yes it's true but their military growth was affected by many things like civil wars , internal conflicts, china and India started indegenous military equipment production in late 90' compared to USAF has advance battleships and aircraft carriers in 60's so china and india have long way to go
India has 😅
@@caelum2185riiiiight
Who cares unless you like the wars we always start.
@@jmy7622 quite a few people care.
Going to OCS, any tips?
Fkn badass is what it is
my dream
I hope it come true(^^)
I am a foreigner from Thailand. The narrative speed is very clear that I like it.
They're not pilots they're aviators
Explain the difference please 🙏🏾
After PFT the aviator can REQUEST what plane to fly. NavAIR tries their best to accommodate but service needs come first
It also heavily depends on the aviator's pilot training grades and performance
@@matthewchido8450 very true I forgot to mention that.
Wait, was there a test? Are we picking everything apart here?
No favoritism....
My son does this for a living
Star Bucks needs to engineer a coffee technology for U.S. Navy Pilots
I expected more from a video that came out in the last month of 2022. It goes from somewhat informative in the beginning to irrelevant very fast. No mention of the T-45Cs anywhere. Usually you go from piston engines to turbines and on to jets. That is if you're not going into large or medium transports and helos. The introduction of V-22s will make the medium transport wing irrelevant soon.
Not to mention the T-6. Nobody in the Navy or Air Force uses the T34 plane to train anymore. That was from 2018 at the latest.
Bonito bonb

Complimenti continuate a fare i video meravigliose le Portaerei americana
At 12:11.. "The US Airforce believes"...... yea right.... the Airforce always returns to a runway exactly where the left it. Let's see them land on a carrier.
And the noise on that flight deck has to be unreal.
The US Navy is a 3 trillion dollar a year business I bet.
Just like playing Flight Sim...
I like how half the F-35’s they showed are Air Force.
$400,000 helmet 😮
Good Job
pilot i need help, ok what you want? what you got? f35 or spitfire, you need to ask lol
The Gerald Ford uses electromagnetic cats.
Lots of disinformation but fun video nonetheless
i love USA
They lost me at bachelor degree …😂
The video was supposed to be "A Day in the Life of US Navy Pilots" -proceeds to show Air Force pilots 3/4 through the video. Just do better...
Human pilots will be obsolete before too long! Drones!
As Maverick said.........."Maybe so Sir, But not today!"
Fly high US Navy pilots are the best in the World 🌎. Chinese 🇨🇳 and Russian 🇷🇺 pilots are afraid and back down when they see F22 and the F/A 18 Super Hornets in their tail. They call mama let me go home 🏡 👈😆🤣
they don't back down cuz if they do their family is ceremoniously executed
amazing how this a exact copy of another video
"A Day in the Life of a Navy Pilot"...... [proceeds to show 8 minutes of training, not even CLOSE to a Carrier]
SAM2 1972
Why do Navy ship have Air Force insignia on the side??
It's not an Air Force Insignia. It's a United States Insignia displayed on Every Military Aircraft in the Inventory.
I'm sure almost 100% of training pilots choose F35. I mean who would choose the F01?
Not really a day in the life, quite. More an overview of how they become aviators?
I tried to join as a young women and couldn't even handle being yelled at MEPS. Good thing I didn't go I would have ended up in Iraq
1:43 *STEALTH carrier bird's nest!!*
There’s a reason the video has more than 675k views & less than 6k likes…it’s not accurate in the least
This is ancient info. The Primary flight school info is WRONG...VERY wrong.
Amusing how fast some who have a proclivity to point out the cost of military hardware when compared to the waste of money that has been spent on "education". At with the U.S. military they are the strongest most capable in the world. Unlike students rank dam near last in almost every subject in academia...
Precisely because we spend eight hundred billion a year on defense and thirty on education. Not that I expect you to understand cause and effect there peabrain.
@@joshschneider9766 Well genius. It seems you missed the point. Sorry I don't have a chaulk board out to draw little pictures so that perhaps you could grab the basic idea. At least the military has something to show for itself. That being the most powerful war machine mankind has ever seen. But I know this upsets you. Perhaps you should stick to playing with marbles and dressing up in mama clothes....
@@pkelly3463 yeah yeah yeah, whatever. You can't even spell chalk.
or the war on drugs
They are here to protect everything our education family's...who should be ashamed is athletics who get paid to okay a game I assure u my boy don't play

Good
정말 항모의 각 직종을 일일체험 하며 한달 정도 생활해 보고 싶네요..
조종사는 항상 자기 비행기만 타나요? 아니면 순차적으로 배정되는 비행기를 타나요?
All this money spent on some shit that ain't never gonna happen.
These pilots get paid way less the what they should be.
Excellent presentation
Your video is decent in some parts but far from the truth in others.
You do know that during the 1960's ROTC meant Run Off To Canada, right?
Air Force or Navy? This video is all over the place.
Or even from some perspectives foreign air force with the aircraft at 11:25 being a RAAF F35 Lightning, the kangaroo roundel gives it away.

Aviator, not pilot
Yes visto... Only one lineal free .no derrame
Que sea en español.

Always funny when military propaganda sounds like a bowel movement 😂😆

Air Force or Navy?
obama. yeahe. obabama.
Hilariously inaccurate and outdated. Decent footage though. Got the clicks
