    From a retired Army Infantry Senior NCO, we have the greatest Navy because of young men and women who do what others are afraid of. You’ve made my life easier in each war I’ve been in but I know we never get the chance to tell you how proud we are to have you on our side. Things are going to get serious in 7-8 months so be ready.

    I never get tired of these aircraft carrier videos. The amount of equipment & man power is amazing. On the flip side, I'm also amazed at how quiet and peaceful the maintenance work seems to be, and if true it's probably better that way.

    Some corrections: The Sailors working on the jet engines are ADs not ATs. Those same Sailors testing the engines on the test cell are also ADs (aviation machinist mates).

    They all come out from serving our country and into skilled positions and responsible citizens.
    This is why I think 90% of our issues with our youth would be solved by them serving our country in the military or public service.
    I be the first to admit that I was dumb punk that straighten my ass up once in boot camp. I learned a skill that I was proud of that earned me a chance to make something of myself in life.

    I remember these days I worked the Tire shop on the Nimitz and the George Washington back in the late 90's good times. Seems these shipmates have it pretty easy now. Our presses were always out of action. Thankfully the oven and deep, deep freeze worked for doing besring races. We used rubber sledges to break tire beads.

    I dont get it.... why dont they use ice blasters to clean out the engines on jets,, rather than sitting there with a file? the blaster will get it back to brand new and wont wreck the part,,, but the guy sitting there with a file? now the engine has to be "rebalanced" or is there something im not seeing

    Nitrogen is a inert gas and does not expand at all. Tires are not repaired they are replaced. F-18's have two engines not one.

    • @texaswunderkind
      @texaswunderkind 2 месяца назад +1

      Fresh water had to be transported to the carrier. The carrier did not process sea water into fresh water internally.

      It's true. Look it up. About 20% cooler.

    • @geodun
      @geodun Месяц назад +1

      It is used because normal air has moisture and oxygen which promote oxidation of metals and rubber. Moisture in normal air also causes larger changes in pressure with changes in temperature. If you remove the oxygen and moisture from normal air you have a gas which is about 99% Nitrogen. So, it is not so much that they want nitrogen, nitrogen is just what is left when they remove what they do not want.
