I know who he is.

CODs are the best deal in the Navy.

I had orders to fly them but they changed them on me at the last minute to the E-2C Hawkeye, which is the radar dome carrying variant.


BOLD statement :eek:

Nicely done video.

They are apparently not that easy to bring aboard the ship. I was a junior LSO the day my new RIO was brought out from the beach at Cubi Point. It was a breezy, bumpy day and the COD boltered twice. The first one, the senior LSO turned to me and said "There goes an eleven man bolter". The second one, I told him "Make that twenty two". The pilot trapped on the third pass and my RIO got out of the back end looking like a ghost. He'd had two combat cruises and God knows how many traps in the back seat of F-4s and he thought "This is how I go out, sitting facing the ass end of this thing with no window and no ejection seat?" Not the last time I saw one of them take a lap around the penalty box either.

I have a 100% career boarding rate in the T-45 and E-2.

They wouldn't put the one wire there if they didn't want you to use it occasionally.

If the min wasn't good enough, it wouldn't be the min.
