Thats an awesome photo.  I never really realized how small an aircraft carrier is.  That probably sounds dumb, but when you look at the size of the deck compared to one of those F-18s (which in my opinion aren't that big)-it really isn't huge (which I always thought).

Well keep on dreaming, I've spent six years on the Carl Vinson and only three of the dozen or so guys I know of that requested "Cat Shots" got one on a C-2.

jrpilot, just stick with school, do well in college and join the navy for officer training, you could be doing it every day then.
Very nice picture
