Yes, but can they go up again and rail slide the edge of the flight deck? I wonder how far horizontally they got from the ship, and how many secs of airtime? It would be hard to beat the alpine flight someone posted earlier this year.

Yeah, that was the one I was thinking of. Were those intentional kite loops or just crazy out of control death spirals I wonder?

How come they didn't let me do cool stuff like that when I was stationed on a carrier? Would have been alot more interesting during six months out at sea.
