FighterSweep Staff No Comments Military Aviation, Navy, Photos, Video

Landing on the aircraft carrier for the first time is a life changing event. And did you know every student Naval Aviator does it solo for the first time? Well, think about it…who would want to ride along!

Great video…ignore the first 10 seconds. The story starts in Kingsville, Texas.
