I noted that the pilot actually looked outside the aircraft at the carrier, as if he were actually flying the plane! My God, what has all our sim-screened, pop-up, virtual reality, instrument-guided, computer-controlled, automated, hands-off, eyes-on-the-GPS-display technology come to----human involvement??? :heh:

I like the one with the Super Entendart stalling, struggling to stay aloft using engine power, and the going in for the drink at launch. The accompanying music from the Titanic is a nice touch.
