00:00
No operation at sea provides more dramatic evidence of skill than the perfect carrier
00:23
landing.
00:24
With the grace of a gull, the aircraft approaches its nautical haven.
00:28
And now, the breathtaking thrill as the pilot responds to what is called the cut, and gently
00:35
eases his craft downward to the deck for a perfect landing.
00:42
As the mid-ocean sun paints dazzling patterns of light and shade, the deck is cleared for
00:47
the landings to come, and the busy life of the carrier goes on.
00:54
So we descend below, where we find the neat hangar deck, to which the planes are promptly
00:59
dispatched for a well-earned respite from their long and hazardous missions, and where
01:04
they impatiently awake future aeronautical adventures.
01:10
Oh, oh, oh, my achin' head.
01:17
Uh-oh, you got DDT's.
01:21
Huh? DDT's?
01:23
Yeah, Deck Dive Treatment.
01:27
Very common, but don't worry.
01:29
You'll see worse cases than that down here, such as anglomania, that angling in disease
01:38
you get from the boys who always overshoot or undershoot the groove.
01:43
Catch the wire at an angle, and it is...
01:49
The planes weren't built to take that wire off-center.
01:52
Gives a man goo-goo anglomania.
01:57
But then that isn't all you can get.
01:59
You might be exposed to one of the boys who always holds off, keeps pulling back on the
02:05
stick, won't set it down.
02:11
For him, they invented a barrier.
02:16
And do you know what that nets you?
02:20
Float-o-phobia.
02:23
Of course, that's rather mild, but brother, the real mess is the deal you get from nervous
02:30
flyers who disobey the cut.
02:32
Now, every pilot knows that when the LSO gives them either the cut or the wave-off, he must
02:39
obey it, yet the nervous ones won't accept the decision.
02:44
They not only risk their own necks, they risk blowing up the carrier.
03:09
You know?
03:11
You know, they say there are some good flyers in the Navy.
03:16
Maybe, maybe someday, in one shining hour of a beautiful tomorrow, an ideal pilot will
03:28
come to our squadron, and he'll make a clean, deep approach, and line up along the center,
03:39
and after the cut, he'll fly us all the way down to the dune, down to the dune, down to
03:47
the deck.
03:49
Oh, but no.
03:53
Impossible.
03:55
We're all doomed.
04:05
Wait, did I hear a gentle sound?
04:08
Ah, you're, you're going batty, brother.
04:16
Holy cow!
04:18
Look!
04:20
A normal landing!
04:22
Hooray!
04:24
Hooray!
04:26
Hooray!
04:28
Hooray!
04:30
Hooray!
04:32
Hooray!
04:34
Hmm.
04:36
Must be going batty.
04:38
Thought I heard airplanes cheering.
04:40
Huh.
04:42
Well, they won't have anything to shout about until carrier pilots realize that they can't
04:46
go forth and expect the plane to land itself.
04:50
They've got to stay on the ball.
04:52
No one is going to fly that airplane right down to the deck but the pilot himself.
