POV Aircraft carrier plane launch from in the cockpit!

[EvandroMario]

Initial speed holy shit

[avinth]

00:37 "uuurgh, god shot!" :)

[subfourrun]

it's and S-3

[DCGamingVideos]

BOMB

[NateTheGreatPilot]

Love that 'grunt' when the plane was launched.

[wastedwasted3]

good shot- now drop your bombs on moscow

[champwagner]

bet it seems alot shorter in real life funny people forget the cat and the controllers are 1 of the most important funtions of a carrier without it no jets

[chris5812341234]

Looks like an Ea6 Prowler but it could be a s-3 viking.

[FanosVideos]

a-7?

[Navahoagm63]

that was cool

[fokkertam]

ooohhhh my god! Is very short take off! nice video man!

[halfmumi]

RRRGGGGuggghhh!...

[KarasuTakama]

I'm a pilot (Well, training to be one), and there's nothing quite like that moment when you leave the ground and the plane starts to turn side to side. I can never stop myself from smiling.

[cpurickyahoo]

"are they not all the same!!??"

Nope. When the plane is light, or when there's a lot of wind over the deck, they give you a lighter shot. Sometimes they give you less than you expect, and the plane settles toward the water a bit after it comes off the end.

[TyVulpine]

The plane has to accelerate from 0 MPH to 200 MPH in 200 feet. You do the math.

[KIBProductionz]

thanks

[a8127]

S-3 Viking baby , YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kickZtailout]

Yep, definitely an S-3.

[kickZtailout]

@99kashus Nah, it's an S-3 without a doubt. If you're going solely off the fact that there are 4 crew and it MUST be a Prowler... Vikings also have 4 aircrew. Also, look out on the nose at the total lack of fuel probe. Also, the glareshield frame are obviously not a Prowler, and either is the tall side glass.

[LotusCarsLtd]

Haha I love the chatter

[KIBProductionz]

when you are catapulted, does it hurt? what does it feel?

[dominikwys]

good question KIBProductionz...

[TyVulpine]

Doesn't hurt, it just feels like a roller coaster speeding up really fast. Its about 3 Gs (3x the force of gravity, about what astronauts feel at liftoff)

[KIBProductionz]

thx

[machineman9]

@KIBProductionz 0-180mph in about 2 seconds or so. It feels like going fast. Go on one of those rollercoasters which launch you forwards and that is the tip of the iceberg of a cat shot.

[Hereticofreason]

@KIBProductionz it feels like your insides gracefully pull to the backside of your body and slowly and softly turns weightless, all while adrenaline fills your body.

[dn27s42000]

@KIBProductionz It doesn't hurt unless you don't brace yourself.. it just pins you in place for a very short period of time. I think landing is much worse because the hard pull seems to last much longer.

[cryteeek]

@KIBProductionz It feels like if ur getting 2 orgasms at the same time

[retro12358]

@KIBProductionz fastest rollercoaster in the UNIVERSE

[SometimeAngel]

Definitely sounds like S-3 Viking turbofan engines and large side windows, so...Yeah

[3IDLukeK]

How did you link in the radio comms to the helmet cam?

[xboxlivegstar66]

wat the aircraft here ??

[706d]

People have said its an S-3 viking

[bommaz]

@706d yep S-3, look up S-3 cockpit on google then hit images

[tmarazita]

Thanks

[pierrelebatteur]

3 G's in the face

[fieniet]

is is in a hawkeye?

[airplane82]

no its an S-3 viking

[Diastro3D]

Anyone knows why they say it's a great shot ?

[legacycx]

I think any time a plane takes off a carrier successfully it's considered a great shot :D

[706d]

He is reffering to the hit of the catapult at take-off/ launch.

[706d]

aka "catshot"

[LarryThatKid]

how do you know if it's a "good shot"?

[706d]

well, for one you aren't swimming right now.

Really, it is on a solid and successful take-off.

[LarryThatKid]

So basically if you make it airborne is part of it, and part of it is kinda the strength of the actual "shot"?

[706d]

I guess you could say that.

The cat shot is the catapult shot off of the deck.

So a "Great shot" would be a great shot off of the catapult or the "hit" of the catapult slinging you.

[LarryThatKid]

Alirght, thanks for clarifying that for me =]

[livewiremjk]

Nice Video. Thanks for sharing.

[wessex19]

thanks mate, after looking at :25 I can see the S3 Features. cheers

[wessex19]

was this a hawkeye or a greyhound??

[ec911dude]

Neither. It's an S3 Viking. Easily discernible at :25 into the vid. The view out the co pilot's seat shows a cockpit window that extends up and wraps around the top of the aircraft. Not so on the E2 or C2. I'm a former Antisubmarine Warfare Operator. I know the S3 well.

[qunniq]

what was he saying at the end they didnt match intended airspeed?

[travich1]

It was the COTAC saying they two airspeed indicators (his own and the pilot's) didn't quite match. That would indicate a potential blockage in the pitot system which meant that one (or both) of their airspeeds indications would be wrong. That can spell disaster on landing if the airspeed is reading too far off.

[kdog3882]

hellll yea man!

[andrefearon]

top gun baby yeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaa

[HugoMonster]

Awesomeness!!!

[shaokem]
