That has been around for a bit, but I still enjoy rereading it any time! Thanks!

This is a video of an F-18 taking off from a Carrier that isn't related, but neat to watch anyway.

Yes, it has been around for a bit, I read it only last week, but, as you say Foggy, it is really funny, and many people won't have seen it before, so it will be new to them.

The video was neat, tho rather mundane. I don't get it? Was it just a training mission, a very short one? He appeared to take off from the carrier, fly around for a spell, and then land back on the carrier!!??!! lol

Since it was at sea, I doubt it was training. Just routine sorties.
