Clips: S-3 Viking Carrier Landing

What I love about this video is how completely boring it is. Precision isn’t exciting, but I’d prefer the former over the latter in this scenario, especially with less than one minute from approach to landing.

After the jump, the most terrifying at-sea landing video I’ve ever seen as a CH-64 Seaknight pilot gets caught on a metal safety net on the deck, flips, and plunges into the sea along with his passengers. Never fails to give me chills.

And while you’re here, another bad helicopter at-sea landing.
