I have no idea where are you finding those interesting things about aircraft carrier. Another great video. :) And will be another soon! I can't wait! :) Great job X-Planed!
Top notch visual aids for explaining the system! Great video. It would be very cool to see a video on the wire arrest system too. Have always wondered how those work
Wow, this is a superb series of videos! I've been interested in naval aviation for a very long time, but some of the details, and especially the developmental origin stories, are new to me! You have a new subscriber!
3:48 If the plane was too high or too low how would the watching LSO know? It is the pilot that is watching the reflection, to anyone on the ship the reflection does not move...
Every aircraft carrier innovation into the 1950's was of British design. Angled flight deck , steam catapult , mirror landing system . First Jet landing and take off. Watching this , one would think it was the Americans
nevermind that he specifically stated it was a British invention in the video. Perhaps if you listened to the audio rather than merely watched you may have known that?
Thanks. It controls the lights on the FLOLS. Also holding pickle switch above his head is a sign to the tower and the deck crew that he requests a clear deck
The signal mirror carried in US survival kits is known as a "Meatball Mirror," because of the grid between the two plates of glass which show where the reflection is being aimed. When the mirror and the Fresnel lens systems came along, the beam of light looks the same as the "meatball" in the survival mirror that the pilots had been trained to use. It has nothing to do with the Hinomaru on the Japanese flag.
I feel that this will make weak pilots but I do understand what this will do to help people land safely I think that you can relate it to shooting in ILS approach with and using auto pilot. Your still flying the airplane but your using the knobs . I prefer flying it by hand but it’s nice to have that back up. Conversely if you always use auto pilot I feel it weakens you and can put you in a scary position.
I just recently found your videos and find them extremely informative and love your CGI animations. I look forward to seeing future videos.
Thank You. Hope You subscribed😉
Very nice indeed. It was interesting to get a context on the history of the "ball". Keep it up, please :)
Thanks😉

The details of recovery system is going to be one of my next videos😉
Awesome video, great information and well presented. Thank you!
Thank You
You really are the best explainer of things. I've watched the Navy's official channel and they don't do as good as you.
Wow thank You for these words. Hope You subscribed😉

Excelent!! ANd a very clear english, specially for those that has'nt english as hour native language
Simple but effective...👍

Very well explained 👍
Thanks Mate😉

@@mfrsrThe section was quite long, quoted the name and mentioned the test. Yet, he didn't notice it...
How vulnerable are these systems? Can they be easily damaged by an enemy attack? and if they are disabled, can an aircraft still land?
Awesome video Brother
Thank you! Ive learned so much
You’re welcome😉
Great video, hope you will make explanation in-depth about The Island. Aircraft Carrier's superstructure.
Good idea😉
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks for your easy to understand explanation.
Always love yours Xplaned video,
So what is that kind of switches thing LSO holding on theirs hand?
Thanks. It controls the lights on the FLOLS. Also holding pickle switch above his head is a sign to the tower and the deck crew that he requests a clear deck

The IJN adopted the optical landing system at the first.
Now where is that „next video“ about the following system ?
In progress. It’s coming soon
So is he still alive? I love the vids!
I am😉 New video is coming soon
@@x-planed ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cover the new system! Part 2!
It is done😉
👍🏻👍🏻

That’s why some airlines require a particular number of hand held landings per month from the pilots
AI voices suck.
LoL it’s my voice not AI😂
