The Catapult Topside Petty Officer's job is to ensure the safety of all personnel on the flight deck during launching operations, and to ensure the proper hook-up of the aircraft to the catapult. This video is very similar to the video: [ Ссылка ] except that this is the POV from Catapult 3.

The video starts with about one minute until launch, with the first launch taking place at around 3:00. This is one of my favorite videos as it features the removal, or "break down", of an aircraft from the catapult.

The aircraft you'll see are F/A-18C/D (Legacy) Hornets and F/A-18E/F Super Hornets (Rhinos).

-- Sorry for the non-widescreen view. Switching GoPros without being familiar with a change someone made to the defaults can cause stuff like this to happen. --
