FPP012 - Aircraft Carriers (part 2)

This week we continue where we left off the previous episode with U.S. Navy Captain Eric "Pappy" Anduze: discussing what the various flight deck jersey colors mean and then how a catapult launch works–including the hardware that makes it possible and what happens in the event of an emergency.

If you missed part 1, definitely go back and listen to episode 11 before listening to part 2. Next week we will talk about daytime landings on these massive floating cities. Stay tuned!
