I am a former ABE, Gear Dawg. I shared this because I'm super grateful to finally see our system represented in media. I don't know necessarily what information is supposed to be shared, but I at least enjoyed the visual! Well done. I'm super curious how you created the animations, but I know nothing of the technology!
I’m always happy getting positive feedback about my work but I’m double happy reading comments from people who actually are/were directly involved in carrier ops. You guys give me great motivation. How I make my animations? Well apart from being a pilot I’m also a professional 3d layout designer/animator. These two activities are pretty far away from each other but thanks to this channel I can combine both of them into one😉
Fabulous video, super informative. Can I ask what actual software package is used, would love to be able to do this type of animation for my engineering students
Very nicely done. You are a great addition to the RUclips aircraft channel family. Since you asked for suggestions, the camshaft animation around 7:05 took a few viewings to see that the cam was rotating. Same for around 8:45 where the fluid flows to take up the momentary slack. I think both are due to the active element or fluid being gray and blending in to the background. These are minor points, the overall video is top notch.
They removed the drive chains, everything is computerized now. You can see the Gui stand that operator uses at 2:12 in the video next to the gauges. Honestly this was really well made. The diagram for the connection point of the CDP and purchase cable is backwards. The CDP is the male end and the barrel on the purchase cable is the female end. But that is pretty nitpicky all things considered.
This is maybe the best explanation of how this system works I've ever seen, very well done.
Thank You. Appreciate it😉

That’s right. I made an animation only for one damper, but I belive everyone gets the idea😉 thanks for the heads up
Awesome Job. I would like to see a video on the Steam Catapult, if that's possible please.
Thanks. I’ll think about it😉
Been here since your crew signal vid, awesome work! Can you cover WW2 carrier ops especially during recovery?
Thanks Mate. That’s a great idea😉

i have made the hydraulick parts for this on my cnc mill. my company made multiple units.
Great videos. Thanks for all the info.
Superb.
Thanks😊
THANK YOU FOR THE FULL EXPLANATION ,
WHAT ABOUT THE NET ARRESTER DETAILS ?
Great explanation, where did you get the 3D model of the system ?
How often do those wires snap? It would suck to be nearby if and when that happened.
Hey x-planed I’ve been wondering for a while now what it means when the deck crew wear black shirts under their vest, I hope you can enlighten me.
Looks pretty much the way as 1974-1977. I’m sure much of it is now computerized.
