  • Catapult Launches & arrested Landings of C-2A Greyhounds On Flight Deck Of Supercarrier USS Nimitz.
    This video includes recently recorded footage of Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 30 (VRC-30). VRC-30 operates the venerable C-2A Greyhound in the performance of the Carrier On-Board Delivery "C.O.D." mission. The Providers transport passengers, high-priority aircraft, ship, and weapons system components, U.S. Mail, and other cargo to and from the United States Navy's Pacific Fleet aircraft carriers, both at home in Southern California and wherever our CVNs may be deployed around the world. By providing rapid daily air delivery service between ship and shore, VRC-30 maximizes the warfighting readiness of deployed Carrier Strike Groups (CSG) and enables CSG commanders to bring maximum lethality to the enemies of the United States, wherever they may be.

    Many fond memories of the COD, I have a few cats/traps in the backward facing seats in this great aircraft. My last footsteps on the flight deck was stepping on board a Cod USS Coral Sea 1986 heading home after a 7 month cruise. Flew into Sig. then our brothers in the Air Force gave us a ride to Dover in a KC10.

    • @VandalAudi
      @VandalAudi 4 роки тому

      From what I’ve gathered, the MV22s has a reduced cost per launch/land cycle because they don’t use the CATOBAR, that also helps reduce the stress to the airframe, it also reduce the deck operations of launching and landing an aircraft due to its freedom from the CATOBAR system, and because it doesn’t use the CATOBAR system it could carry loads up to two spare FA18 spare engines, which the C2As couldn’t deliver before.
      Edit : the navy would also spend less in training cargo pilots to land on an aircraft carrier.

    • @Mekkiceh
      @Mekkiceh 4 роки тому

      No, same spin allows same engines and same propellers : thus, it eases a lot the maintenance and logistics (and reduces costs).
      However same spin (and clockwise spin) props makes the left (port) engine more critical (at low speed), but the right (starboard) engine may be put a bit closer to the center axis to counter that effect (I don't know if it is the case on the C-2 Greyhound).
      Cf Wikipedia "critical engine" to understand the deal with same spin props : To sum up : at high angle of attack (slow speed) the props going downward gives more push than when going upward. then the push on dual props with same spin is not symmetrical. (One pushes more inward (close to the center axis of the plane), the other outward).
