View Full Version : Pretty awesome documentary
About landing fighter jets on aircraft carriers during what they call "heavy pitch". It is a pretty interesting watch if you have 20 mins to kill.

really enjoying this one.
Yeah, it probably didnt seem so weird with just the night time stuff.
But the day time vids showing how much the deck is moving is pretty effing crazy. I cant imagine that during the daytime, let alone at night...

The documentary is about landing fighter jets on carriers during heavy pitch. It is not about how to nap during a storm...

A few weeks ago when my grandmother and her boyfriend were in town, he told us a story about the first time he was propositioned for gay sex in the navy.
It was a thrilling story which had absolutly no akward moments.
