big F Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Nice shots there plenty of reference material. Been a long time since I've been up close and personal to active military metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ae_productions Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Such a marel of engineering. My grandfather was a grunt. He'd joke with his airforce buddies that he couldn't believe some of "those metal contraptions" could fly! Love the Fa-18. That plane is badass. It's startling that such a large craft has such a claustrophobic cockpit! Never been on board a Navy vessel, but been close a few times for work. The "awe" factor never goes away. They're a sight to behold. Those pictures are awe-inspiring, but I bet they don't hold a candle to the real thing. Thanks for sharing!

MechTech Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Thanks EXO, that's really awesome! The elevator movies give me a good idea as to how fast they should move for one of my next projects. Where/when did you go? - MT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 The USS AL was in San Pedro (Los Angeles Port) July 28 weekend. Got there pretty early for a 2 hour wait. When the shuttle got back to the place where we got picked up there must hve been a line that had a wait that was 4-6 hours long. The freeway exit was backed up too. Was really lucky to get aboard it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garou Kuroryuu Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 It's been like 20 years now that I was on board the Constellation (CV-64), but these pictures brought back great memories from that day. Lucky you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
