A unique angle of a F-16 launch. You also clearly see the Thunderbird smoke system tubing next to the exhaust.

To whom it may concern,

I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Thank you for you patience.

Hornets qualifying on C-d-Gaulle.

 

 

Well done to the pilots, deck is much smaller than what they're used to.

yep, but "much smaller" ?

imho that ~20% shorter landing deck is not significant, however the deceleration force is higher on the remaining distance/part of the shorter deck after the hook caught the wire

Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills.

Imho 20% is significant when we are talking about safety margins for a ~70$ million aircraft with one or two live pilots :). But I could have used a different word, sure.
