Ride along as an F/A-18 gets launched from a carrier

If there were GoPros when I was the Navy you’d get to see videos of me chipping paint, buffing passageway floors, putting down floor tile, and other exciting work! LT Evan Levesque, a Navy fighter pilot, used his to show us what it’s like to launch off an aircraft carrier’s catapult in an F/A-18 Super Hornet.

All good things must come to an end. Leaving the boat flying business for a little while. Going to miss it. #FlyNavy #Hornet #Rhino #GoPro #GoProAviation #AvGeek

Looks like fun, doesn’t it?
