Default Aircraft Carrier Landing Terror.....The Pitching Deck
You'll never forget watching these videos. You're coming in for a landing, the deck is pitching 30 feet. One moment you're looking at the deck, and the next you're looking at the back of the ship........and you've got to get on that ship.

These pilots are incredible!!

This link is Part 1, and you'll see a link to Part 2.
