Nothing is better than love! Thank God I found the Greatest love of All like Whitney Houston sings about! I love myself finally! Victorious! I have always loved everyone else but today my life matters!
Oh also if you look you'll see them with a notebook, they use that to calculate how much power to use on the catapult. Depending on the plane, the planes weight they make adjustments.
That is the Centerdeck Operator, and his/her job is to communicate directly with the Charging Panel Operator (below decks) as well as several others in the launch system. He feeds them info such as aircraft type, weight, and other required parameters as supplied to him by crew members on the deck. Every aircraft is different in its weight and configuration so the cat needs to be set precisely for that individual aircraft. The person who actually depresses the actual button that opens the valves to blast the bird is either on the edge of the deck (Deck Edge Operator) or in the center of the catapults in the bubble (pops out from the flight deck during flight ops. it can also be done from other locations in dire situations.
I’m enjoying a number of these videos, but I would really like someone to explain the sequence of events. Just exactly who is doing what and why, I think I figured out a little of it but I am not sure.
@@chrismaggio7879 I Appreciate your reply after all this time. Subsequently I have seen a number of launch sequence videos with explanation as to exactly what is going on. I find deck operations very interesting due to the fact that all the operations must be nonverbal, for obvious reasons. In fact all of the operations up to the launch always impressed me as some sort of highly technical dance.
@@theolddoctor4492 It is an amazing thing to be at the opposite end of the deck and be able to simply converse with another deckape. At night wands are used (flashlights with color coded cones) in a similar but different manner, and even more caution is required. There can be only a slight variation in how one gives the signals, meaning you can't give it some "personal style"... has to be clear and understandable... except for the Shooters! Those knuckleheads dance and do acrobatics. We would have been locked up, but they get on RUclips vids! haha
Yes it’s funny but also sexy,cute and a little mmm...😘👍🎶 no disrespect just lots of bubble guts lol😂 You guys are amazing.thank you for your courage and service to our country.✌️👍🥰
ABH is Handler (yellow shirt), ABE is Equipment (green shirt) but the Shooter is an officer and wears the Yellow shirt because he is the final step in the sequence that all the colors are working towards (a safe launch) and he takes his last cue from the Enlisted Yellow shirt who's sole job is to make sure no one is F'ng up and all is ready for a safe launch... then you see him "hand off the aircraft" to the shooter.
Hi Britney, I was just wondering - Right after the Shooter reurns the pilot's salute, he points toward and looks at five or six 'final check' things, before he crouches and signals to launch... Can I ask, what is he looking at and in what order? Thanks, Sarri.
When he's pointing he's checking with the rest of the flight crew to make sure it's good to launch. The deck crew makes sure that the aircraft is in proper position on the catapult, and that all alerons are working properly. The pilot activates all of them prior to launch to ensure they work. ( Tail surfaces.) When the shooter sees the thumbs up from all deck crew, he launches the aircraft.
Rick Howell Really? That's soo cool man!! I'm studying aerospace engineering, but I've always dreamed with flying a Hornet hahaha Do you know any webpage where I can learn about LSO signals and this kind of stuff?
I love y'all be safe and hydrated. I have a song choice for you If you lije like. Move your ass by scooter. Good luck be safe have fun. Hooyaa shipmates for the ones in the crows nest

3:48 I do not see many videos on YT of 2 jets at the same time launching, AWESOME!
Simply amazing ❤️
This old Army guy loves these carrier flight deck videos.Kinda makes me wish I had gone Navy way back when.
I think only in Doolittle raid, army airplanes were the only time to lunch from a navy aircraft carrier.
If I could go back 20 years......I'd want to Launch these Beasts ! Love it
THIS Motivates ALOT of people to want to Launch these AWESOME Aircraft !
Simply amazing ❤️

As long as there is you tube... this dude is legend!

Nothin But A Good Time by Poison.

Well oiled machine very cool
Gary you are one cool guy
please excuse my ignorace. i was Army for 20 years. what does the green shirt do sitting next to the shooter, please?
I could be wrong but I think that's the person that activates the catapult. He has that trigger in his hand.

SOMEBODY HOLD UP A "BAGDAD OR BUST" SIGN DURING LAUNCH.
Man you are a God
That's gotta make you feel like a badass standing on the deck of a aircraft carrier.
I’m enjoying a number of these videos, but I would really like someone to explain the sequence of events. Just exactly who is doing what and why, I think I figured out a little of it but I am not sure.
I just did an internet search. Also scrolled through comments on several videos too.
It's been a year, but if you can be a little more specific maybe I can give you some details that would help you make sense of this dance.

@"Britney" Spier why two shooters?
Maddison Loree I'll bet that one was being trained.
@@jackfitzpatrick8173 I thought they'd have "UI" on their cranial to indicate they were under instruction.
Some cool shooting...….
Yes it’s funny but also sexy,cute and a little mmm...😘👍🎶 no disrespect just lots of bubble guts lol😂
You guys are amazing.thank you for your courage and service to our country.✌️👍🥰
Brit, do you sing also.
Guys what is the title of the song you use on this video please ???
Nothin' but a Good Time by Poison
that is so cool
❤
Hmmm... Britney's voice changed 🤔
Молодцы!!! Чётко работают!!!
What's the abbreviation for this rate?
ABH is Handler (yellow shirt), ABE is Equipment (green shirt) but the Shooter is an officer and wears the Yellow shirt because he is the final step in the sequence that all the colors are working towards (a safe launch) and he takes his last cue from the Enlisted Yellow shirt who's sole job is to make sure no one is F'ng up and all is ready for a safe launch... then you see him "hand off the aircraft" to the shooter.
Nice
He is so funny 👍🏻
Hi Britney,
I was just wondering - Right after the Shooter reurns the pilot's salute, he points toward and looks at five or six 'final check' things, before he crouches and signals to launch... Can I ask, what is he looking at and in what order?
Thanks,

@@TwentytenS4B8 why is there sometimes two Shooters instead of one?... Is one of them in training?
What was the second aircraft called that departed?
E-2C Hawkeye. Airborne Early Warning Aircraft.
Great thanks!
It s called your "moms fat ass"

@@chrismaggio7879 Wow 8 years later. Impressive.
🇺🇸🇻🇪
wow 3:25 looked like a poor launch
What's going on while the shooter moves his wrist so fast? What does that sign mean?
spanishhornets They are signaling the pilot to increase power to the engines.
Rick Howell Thank you!
spanishhornets
You are welcome. I did a stint in the Navy and worked on the flight deck. Fun stuff when I was younger.
Rick Howell Really? That's soo cool man!! I'm studying aerospace engineering, but I've always dreamed with flying a Hornet hahaha Do you know any webpage where I can learn about LSO signals and this kind of stuff?
spanishhornets I believe it means throttle up to the pilot
