Or can you describe. My 'plugins' won't let me view it. This is the VFA-15 Valion episode on the USS John F. Kennedy during workups for their 1997 cruise. The AP made an overly aggressive correction in the wires, apparently forgetting SA due to a, some say, over stressful late lineup call by the LSO. There was a discussion a while back on this when the clip was cited on some other aviation photo site. No disciplinary action for the pilot or the LSOs resulted. Just a bad day on the JFK. |

What did they call the pilot after that ? "Twister" , "Weaver" "Zigzag"? |
