Growler Jams

[Passport1]

Growler Jams is a fascinating series of narration by a Navy F-18 pilot performing various flight ops. I can't link to it because it is prohibited. You can find it easily on Youtube.

If you like aviation videos this is well worth the time.

It is not prohibited as you added some relevant information in your post. We just don't want drive-by links to be dropped without some reasonable comment.

Thanks for the clarification.

Awesome YouTube channel, I’ve watched a few videos.

I’m wondering how the CO of aircraft carrier approved this filming and allowed it to be on the web ?

Maybe 'Pail' made a deal with him not to buzz the island if he made the videos public.

That’s a VERY sensitive, high tech jamming aircraft…… not a low tech 40 year old C-130 from USAF.

I’m sure he’s got some viewers from Russia, Iran, China and North Korea watching all his videos very, very closely…..



Off Topic:
I’m jealous of this Growler pilot.

Great content on his channel. I’ve watched it for a while now.

I like Roy Roy. He makes the C-2 Greyhound sound like it's a blast. A lot of his content is diverse though, like living in a camper van and his aircraft broker business. But he's got a lot of videos of C-2 cat shots and arrested landings.

The video on the home page is what he called a "distinguished visitor" landing. Apparently just going straight in and not a carrier break which these pilots apparently prefer. I suppose they don't want a Congressman to lose his lunch or anything, or maybe just complain about the rough ride.

I heard these "carrier onboard delivery" pilots are really popular. He said something about occasionally delivering pizzas.
