I'd love to fly one, but I don't have the stomach for it. I can't ride a roller coaster without puking. I'll never forgive myself for not enlisting. My upmost respect to any and all veterans.

    Knowing which wire they each caught and posting a grade from the LSO on each landing would be even better. I remember watching several landings on the PLAT aboard the Big E and after a while, one could tell, just from that point of view, whether the approach and trap was gonna be graded as an OK or not. Night landings were hairy, no matter what the weather, but I remember seeing several traps at night when the plane looked like it was descending on rails instead of being flown manually. That always amazed me how those guys can do that. Watching that, as well as the cat shot launches, never got old to me.

      Medical studies during the Vietnam war showed that the heart rate of pilots landing on carriers at night and/or in bad weather were always higher than the same pilots in combat with MiGs. I don't know but I'm willing to bet landing a jet on a ship has got to be intense no matter how many times you've done it.
