  For us AF guys, this level of coordination and maneuvering is somewhat overwhelming. We just land and taxi to a spot and go to the club!

  I retired as a Navy Air Traffic Controller when the F-18 pushed the F-14 out (😭), and spent time on 5 carriers (et. al.).  I truly enjoy watching your great content from the pilot's point of view.  I also enjoyed telling officers what to do!  🤣  What a beautiful day for CQ - all they needed was the 3 wire anyway!  Thanks for your Service, your amazing content and be safe out there defending out freedom Shipmate!!!

  This is why you all are called aviators! Not just pilots. As I have heard or been told many, many times, &quot;Just about anybody can land on a non-moving, 10,000 ft runway. To trap about a moving ship, at night, no moon, with the sea being nasty, that takes an aviator.&quot;<br>Nice going, Sir, with the whole lesson taught in this video.

  This is like watching Navy ops with PGA providing commentary. The juxtaposition of it is so good.

  The most dangerous job in the US Military. The flight deck is crazy dangerous. Much respect from former Army grunt.

  I&apos;m not military, I&apos;m not a pilot, and I love this stuff so much. The teamwork is phenomenal. The teamwork is what I keep coming back for. They&apos;re all there because it&apos;s their job, but the conviction of the team is palpable just from watching. I can sense the passion they all have for the smallest detail of their jobs. I love this stuff so much. Did I say that? It makes me emotional.

  “and you’ll get to see how T-45’s can magically taxi backwards using only manpower.” &nbsp;😂😂😂<br><br>This channel is a gift. Thanks Pail. FLY NAVY!

  The explanations are first class. &nbsp;You have the ability to synthesize information and present it on a level for us neophytes to ride along with you. &nbsp;Those are some of the identifying characteristics of a very fine Instructor; not every instructor can do this.

  Thanks for the call on these ops. My Son just wrapped Multi phase at NAS Corpus and is in PCS status down to Kingsville, TX to start the T-45 training. Super proud and super excited for him. He is designated E2-Hawkeye!

  Aviate, navigate, communicate... Crisp, clear and concise. &nbsp;I&apos;ve never heard anyone narrate the ballet that is carrier aviation operations better than Pail. &nbsp;Amazing pilot. Great channel. Carry on. &nbsp; 💯
