No it wasn't. She couldn't even properly communicate the malfunction. They had a hydraulic malfunction and she was using the fighter pilot slang of hyd.
That's incorrect. Blue Angel #8 is a Naval Flight Officer (NFO) who flies in the back of the 2-seat jet #7, and acts as the Squadron's Events Coordinator. In this case, she's flying with #7, the Narrator, and since she's handling the radios, she uses her callsign, not his.
@@kevinmadore1794 thanks for the correction I appreciate that there are a lot of numbers to keep track of in terms of their call signs Congratulations on the team selecting a woman for one of the flight slots for 2023., They've got a lot of catching up to match the Thunderbirds, who have already had two.
In regard to your title there is no "Hyde" system on an airplane. Hyde is short for hydraulic. There's less confusion if you use the word hydraulic in your title. Controllers and pilots and other personnel just use Hyde as shorthand when time is important and because it's easier. Probably some artificial intelligence system came up with that title. I think artificial intelligence should be renamed artificial unintelligence given the job it does on TH-cam transcribing human speech.
@@bestguy1294 But it was obviously "non-standard" to the civilian Approach Controller because he asked her at 1:40 to clarify. Even then she continued to talk in jargon instead of simply saying it was a hydraulic failure...

Damn...of course she's a Blue Angel, but damn that situational awareness, control, communication, and flying were clean AF.
She was in the backseat.

Hyde = Hydraulic
Thank you. I’m a know nothing about this stuff.
Wonder what the other person in the aircraft thought. BA 8 is normally used for press/VIP flights. Well done to the pilot getting it down safe.
Blue Angel 8, is normally the call sign for pilot in command for the C-130 squadron support aircraft attached to the team

The callsign isn't Fat Albert?

Fat Albert is Blue Angel 10.....Always
Always like your videos!
So I assume this failure meant no brakes? I didn't catch why they need arresting cables on a full length runway?

Surely a fair bit of non-standard terminology here which isn't helping: 'hyd', 'slick' etc
Not "non-standard" (whatever that is) language for military pilots.
Indeed but is KMSN staffed by civilian or military controllers?

Good job.
How many civilian airport have arresting gear?
I suspect the show had brought that there in case the worst happened.
The ones with a Guard fighter unit there
@@AEMoreira81 they’re here because we have a ANG base here at Madison. Had cables for decades
Any civliian airport that has a military tenant will have arresting cables.
Damn I’d love to take an arrestment on one of their birds. Glad they had permanent gear in place!
Lol - Navy pilots would rather crash than sound like suck on comms
1:15 slow down*
Although it is showing an F-18, this was a c-130
No, it was a family model F-18
Don't think so, the c-130 is a former RAF bird and doesn't have a hook
Negative. It was a 2 seater F-18 carrying the pilot and (WSO) event coordinator.
Nope.
Hiden = hidden.
This was already covered by VASAviation a while back.
For the algorithm
plot twist, the female pilot lost her left and right stickers from the dashboard so she had to declare an emergency.
Its hard to fly when your putting on eye liner and lip stick.
@@dogmandan79 So true. She should have been at home making dinner for her husband and kids.
Blue Angel 8 is LCDR Brian Vaught so I'm assuming it's his back seater on the comms.
@@jmedlin6 you are correct. That was LT Katlin Forster on comms.
