In early 1964 Bob Schumacher conducted a number of trial landings and take-offs from the USS Ranger and a number of other CIA pilots, including Jim Barnes, became carrier qualified. The target for the U-2G was the French nuclear test site, situated at Mururoa Atoll in the middle of the South Pacific, well out of the range of a land-based U-2. Consequently, in May 64 a U-2G operating from the USS Ranger photographed Mururoa Atoll and until 1968 three of the CIAs fleet of U-2s and a number of pilots were always carrier capable, although few actual sorties were ever flown.

The aircraft is a T-45 Goshawk trainer. Once again this is a fine example of if life gives you lemons; you make lemonade. I think this shows that the military often studies its mishaps and often makes them public so that everyone can benefit by learning from the mistakes, thusly prevent additional mishaps. Often tragedies are learning experiences. Like they say, the road to success is often paved with failures. Demonstrates superb airmanship.

YouTube screwed up the audio on this video over a year ago. I have tried to contact them several times about this problem and they have never responded. Im wondering if they deliberately removed it at request from the government. I heard a rumor that the government was trying to recall this video because it is politically incorrect (direct, honest and using some common language, that is not normally considered publicly acceptable). Someone else posted the full video on YouTube, there is several segments/episodes. www.youtube.com This video is a safety lecture. Unless you're a pilot, wantabe or safety aficionado you will probably be bored with the video. There are no airplanes, it is purely lecture. The video has been altered to conceal the identity of the speaker. The video and the audio have been edited and censored for public viewing. Some may still feel it is politically incorrect, but it has a much value for pilot safety education. Related phenomena: findarticles.com For more info Goggle Pilot Psychology...
By Northrop Grumman Possibly might be incorporated into a future version of the JSF (Joint Strike Fighter) F-35 Joint High Power Solid-State Laser (JHPSSL) Program Designed to accelerate solid-state laser technology for military uses, the JHPSSL program is funded by the Army Space and Missile Defense Command, Huntsville, Ala; Office of the Secretary of Defense - Joint Technology Office, Albuquerque; Air Force Research Laboratory, Kirtland Air Force Base, NM; and the Office of Naval Research, Arlington, Va. Under the current phase (Phase 3), the program's goal is for a laser system to reach 100 kW, setting the stage for a variety of force protection and strike missions such as shipboard defense against cruise missiles; wide-area, ground-based defense against rockets, artillery, and mortars; and precision strike missions for airborne platforms. Northrop Grumman surpassed a critical milestone on the JHPSSL 2 program when it demonstrated a laser system with a total power of greater than 27 kW with a run time of 350 seconds. Northrop Grumman's approach utilizes amplifier chains assembled with multiple high-power gain modules. The company's JHPSSL demonstrator used two chains to demonstrate the 27 kW level achieved during Phase 2. Avoiding the need for new physics or scaling, the company's 100 kW architecture uses eight chains, very similar to those used in its 27 kW device. JHPSSL Phase 1 addressed risk reduction of the technologies necessary to obtain high power and beam <b>...</b> Joint High Power...
