Was the navigator conscious when he landed?

@Orangebike666 almost

[Orangebike666]

@TheATSA Are you one of the two individuals in the aircraft or were you on the flight deck?

[TheATSA]

@Orangebike666 neither of them. I just read their recollection by the second link below vid through carefully

@TheATSA Damn it I broke one of my own youtube rules... Read description before commenting.

Simply incredible! One of the best aviation stories, ever.

GOOSE!!! ... Oh No....

@mitchelldev1 Your 12 year old niece would obviously have quite a few "traps" under her belt and would be well qualified to dish out ad hominem attacks. My statement stands. If you have an intelligent response to my post please do, rather than informing the world that your 12 year old niece has a foul mouth. In the real world, medals are for heroes, not a pilot landing an aircraft that is serviceable.

[jonesy97]

So, I forget a comma after the word, myself. Your constant use of (.....) is just as suspect, teacher, especially when your sentences end. You're not even half the man that your brother is. Being a Naval Aviator, I can respect that. What kind of teacher are you? One that goes on the attack, looking for a fight, by going back 10 months to find comments that upset him, or question his manhood? Pat yourself on the back, already, and fuck the hell off.

[mitchelldev1]

@jonesy97 I guess I want you to get a life and be a positive impact on...someone.  Sorry I overestimated your capacity. As a teacher for the last 18 years, I tend to make that mistake occassionally. BTW, it was my 12 year old daughter who wanted to kick your sorry ass. And please check your punctuation...you call yourself a dick. Priceless!

[mitchelldev1]

@Episcleritis Yep. This many years later, I am still so impressed by my brother's ability to handle this situation. I show the video to my middle school students every year as an example of good judgement and intelligence. Just wish those characteristics were more prevalent today...

[jonesy97]

@mitchelldev1 So the troll goes back 10 months to defend the honor of his pilot brother, confused that I made some insult towards him, or questioned integrity, so as to make himself feel somehow elevated. I ask a question, and this is the trolling bullshit I get? Look at the top comment section, asshole. See a familiar handle? I'm a veteran, myself dick, so don't give me a speech about contribution, you comfortable little troll tool. I said it was a great story. What else do you want?

[mitchelldev1]

@unapro3 How many traps do you have under your belt? I just hope that you don't reaIize how silly you sound. My 12 year old daughter, the niece of the pilot, hopes that you grow a pair and a brain. Enjoy your video games and fantasies. Some people live in the real world.

[mitchelldev1]

@xairman565 Thanks for an intelligent post. My brother is the pilot, and every time I watch the video, I have a visceral feeling that he is going to shear off a wing and crash.

[mitchelldev1]

@jonesy97 you obviously need to take another look. My brother was flying that A-6 and Keith was hanging out of the cockpit for several miserable minutes. Don't know where you saw an intact canopy, but I'm reasonably sure that your view was not the reality that Mark and Keith lived through. Hope you appreciate your comfortable little life. Many valuable people gave all so that you could spew stupid. Not sure their contributions were worth it.

[mitchelldev1]

@TheDeeSpence Yes they both did. My uncle and Keith each have families and lives, 20 years after the accident.

[mitchelldev1]

@SuperCurrahee P.S. Learn to spell. Then learn to fly. Then maybe we'll respect your opinion. But then again maybe not if you continue to sound so stupid.
