Yeah, I'll be there if we don't all DQ at the field. Another day like today and, well, who knows... Just remember, always lead a low, and always recenter a high ball in close. I think that's what paddles said. And if you want to take your own waveoff, just tell him that the waveoff lights were still on. They love that....
We've got 13 going from -21, don't know how many from -22, probably around the same. But yeah, if today gets repeated, there's gonna be ALOT fewer. Can you say heinous winds, I know I can. And as much fun as it is going delta easy, don't go knocking the gear out of battery again, mkay.
Damn straight bigworm, my skinny ass and his not so skinny. You Meridian kiddies got your mustaches or are you too cool for that, velocity vector and all?

pretty damn good, but the weather at Cecil was horrid, rained most of the time
the weather at the boat was beautiful though, calm seas, good winds, and only one rainstorm I had to sit through on cat 1 for 15 minutes
out of the K'rock guys (30ish), we had 3 DQ's, not sure about the Meridian guys, except the one who decided to go to idle in the wires and got awarded a cut pass and a trip home

CONGRATS CARRIER AVIATOR(s) !!! Now how many can say that ?? --- not too many!
And the "one" who went to idle in the wires??? There was probably more to that young pilot's day than just one pass --- but it represents a textbook solution to a textbook problem ... good for the LSO's and their testosterone levels ....
OUTSTANDING pix ... who took 'em? You?? I like seeing that "A", "B" (*sniff* ... and where's the "C"?? .... *sniff*) on the tails. Thank God for high-speed internet conncections, though ....
Are there people in some of the back seats?? Death Wish -- part 2???
If I squint real hard .... they almost look like TA-4's .....
... right.

those are the ones I took, got some video too
one of the CQ videos we watched in class had some TA-4's with 'C's on their tail, a slightly dated video
I’ll just say this much. I was very impressed with the enlisted personnel on the ship! I got the “listen to me” signal a bunch, especially when they had my main mount 6” from the edge of the deck - wing and all hanging over the water. Insanity is the only word that describes the intensity on the flight deck.

Worm: CONGRATS to you also --- BZ. The troops on the flight deck are some of the most "head's up" in the NAV ..... the flight deck during flight ops has been described in many ways, usually always boiling down to something akin to "controlled chaos" .... it's at once the most dangerous and most exciting place in the world to go to "work" ....
Well done on achieving your new station in life .....
