Cat Shot

Per request, a look back at FJ-2 133755 being launched from USS Coral Sea CVA-43. During the early days of the jet age aboard aircraft carriers the canopy would be open during launch to allow easier escape if the aircraft ended up in the drink. #fj2 #usscoralsea #cv43 #cva43 #flynavy #navalsafari #aviationsafari #aviationpreservation #boneyardsafari #aviationadventures
