Consider becoming a channel member Made for U.S. Navy aviators by the Ralph Hall Company, this color training film “Carrier Landing Mishaps“ shows a series of landing accidents, in an attempt to educate pilots about proper landing technique. As you might suspect, all of the accidents shown are linked to human error. The film was apparently shot aboard the aircraft carrier USS Coral Sea Carrier (CV-43) with the assistance of Air Wing Reserve 12 (CARAIRWINGRES TWELVE). Most of the aircraft featured are Ling-Vought-Temco Corsair IIs, as well as the F-4 Phantom. The film was released in 1970.
