I was in the Navy stationed on the Washington. It was amazing watching the F14s take off and land. Absolutely amazing.

I lived about a year right off NAS Memphis in Millington TN. Watching them shoot touch-and-gos for prelim carrier quals, wings wide open, afterburners open wider, was indeed amazing. Props to anyone strapping a plane to their ass and taking their chances.
