You Know Your Having A Bad Day When.............

[Jack Cook]

The phrase ''blazing a trail'' takes on a whole mew meaning

F-8E of VF-11 losed a main mount and goes off the angle deck of the FDR but the pilot got out.

That photo gave me flashbacks to being a kid and getting a book on Aircraft carriers. Dug it off the shelf and here are 3 more from that event.

The before


And the right after followed by the pilot going one way and the F8 into the drink.

[The Inspector]

Didn't the pilot wind up landing back on the flight deck and never got wet (except for one medium sized area of his flight suit)

Bad start- bad end

Thanks be to the angle deck.
