[Healeys] Fwd: Fw: FW: Navy Pilots

[Rick Huber]

As a former Navy carrier  right seater (A-6E Intruder Bombardier/Navigator),
I  can subscribe to the notion that Navy Pilots are indeed #1.  However,
having seen this video,  and with my knowledge of aerodynamics, physics, and
carrier aviation, I have to conclude that the video is a fake.  Anybody
remember the video a year or two ago of a one wing stunt plane landing
safely?  It was a fake too.  Amazing how fakes can be made.  The F-35 is
likely a fabulous airplane, and Navy pilots are well trained, but I assert
that the video can't be real.
Cheers,
