Operti, excelente vídeo, não conhecia! Faz-me lembrar o que um piloto de Tomcat disse após fazer a transição para os Hornet... A saudade que ele tinha de um caça a sério
Aqui outro vídeo raro:
Lockheed U-2 Carrier OPS Declassified
In early 1964 Bob Schumacher conducted a number of trial landings and take-offs from the USS Ranger and a number of other CIA pilots, including Jim Barnes, became carrier qualified. The target for the U-2G was the French nuclear test site, situated at Mururoa Atoll in the middle of the South Pacific, well out of the range of a land-based U-2. Consequently, in May 64 a U-2G operating from the USS Ranger photographed Mururoa Atoll and until 1968 three of the CIAs fleet of U-2s and a number of pilots were always carrier capable, although few actual sorties were ever flown.
