    Capt. David Neely, an AV-8B Harrier Pilot assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 266 (Reinforced), 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), conducts flight operations off the USS Kearsarge (LHD3), Mediterranean Sea, March 28, 2013. The 26th MEU is deployed to the 6th Fleet's area of operations. The 26th MEU operates continuously across the globe, providing the President and unified combatant commanders with a forward-deployed, sea-based quick reaction force. The MEU is a Marine Air-Ground Task Force capable of conducting amphibious operations, crisis response and limited contingency operations. (U.S. Marine Corps motion media by Gunnery Sgt.

    I flew Harriers for four years, including ship operations. The LSO tells you what spot on the deck to land on. Pilots always strive to be perfect, especially with carrier landings. This pilot might have missed his spot, slightly. Hence, the mildly disgusted shake of the head. As far as the "throw it down hard" comment about landings, we were taught to not "cushion" the landing. You want to get the aircraft through all the high velocity, hot exhaust gasses as quickly as you can.

      what is "viffing?"

    • @truckproam.2218
      @truckproam.2218 6 років тому

      Bob Rosso viffing is an aerobatic maneuver that is used to rapidly bleed speed when an enemy aircraft is on your 6. They rotate the nozzles and let the other aircraft fly right by so they can get a missile or gun shot. Don’t know how practical it is in real world but it is possible.

    • @rael5469
      @rael5469 9 місяців тому

      Is the Harrier really needed in the mix of fighter aircraft? Maybe a better way to put it is.....maybe it was needed when it first entered service but is it needed now? And by extension is the F-35B needed? or is it a waste of national treasure?

    T. Gaare - I believe you completely. For me, I just enjoyed the cockpit view of the eventual landing. I never witnessed this sort of view before on UA-cam or anywhere else. I'll look for more now. I had a friend once, not so long ago, that flew experimental aircraft at Moffet Field, when it was in use (not really anymore). I just loved, and miss now, talking with him.

  • @mikeosborne83
    @mikeosborne83 11 років тому

    Yes. When the fracturing charge detonates, the center section is blown clear and the sides push outward. The seat has a bar extending upward the push anything else out of the way. This allows a slightly quicker ejection than does jettisoning the canopy before firing the seat charge.

    That moment the pilot wasn't pleased with the landing...

  • @mikeosborne83
    @mikeosborne83 11 років тому

    That pattern on the canopy is the canopy fracturing charge. When the ejection sequence is initiated, an explosive charge is detonated to shatter the canopy and allow the pilot to actually eject through the broken transparency.

    Off the Kersarge LHD-3. I was staioned on the USS Iwo Jima (LHD-7) and I used to hear the zoom-rumble of the AV-8s from below all the time. I'll tell you something, the cockpit of an AV-8B is TINY!!!
    HOOYAH!

    At the 03:10 mark, note the pilot shaking his head after the vertical landing: could be a gesture suggesting he might be unsatisfied about the way he got on the ship (rough, short, unbalanced).

    excellent video.
    is it just me or did it sound like the engine was nackered or surging? or do they all sound like that?

  • @markrichards3788
    @markrichards3788 11 років тому

    The "pattern" is actually an explosive which is detonated milliseconds before ejection. It stops the pilot using his helmet to punch through the canopy.

  • @SimulantSlumber
    @SimulantSlumber 11 років тому

    Popping tends to be an audio artifact of such a loud noise. The lower pitched whine is probably transmitted through the mount. When he's on deck it sounds more natural because it's more in the range of the mic.

    • @AIRBORNE916
      @AIRBORNE916 10 років тому

      i was thinking the same thing.

    • @ThomasFreundl
      @ThomasFreundl 10 років тому +1

      AIRBORNE916 My guess is that he was not happy with the amount of side to side swaying on coming in for the landing. His approach was starting to become stabilized. Just a guess on my part, but I could be way off.

    • @Zatracenec
      @Zatracenec 10 років тому

      Thomas Freundl Yeah, thats possible. I thought his touch down was too rough, but who knows. Anyway...he is a lucky man. :-)

    • @ThomasFreundl
      @ThomasFreundl 10 років тому +3

      If you watch enough of the vertical landings there all tend to throw it down hard at the end.

    • @Zatracenec
      @Zatracenec 10 років тому

      Thomas Freundl You are right. Who knows, what happened and made him turning his head. :-)

  • @hayden4516
    @hayden4516 11 років тому

    @spyker...its det-cord. Shatters the glass during ejection in case you have to eject while hovering.

  • @JMCSD
    @JMCSD 11 років тому

    It's explosive material. Rather than the canopy having jets to push it away from the aircraft during an ejection, it instead just blows it into bits. I asked the same thing a year or two ago myself.

    Harriers have been around for a very long time what they've been trying to do is find a way to reduce the heat used to hover so u dont show up on enemy radar so badly, but i guess they found a solution and harriers are more reliable then other jets since there actually easier to land
