tolerate anything less. Landing and launching aircraft, moving
equipment, and personnel in a relatively small area requires
precise coordination for safe operation. Handling aircraft on a
flight deck is more complicated than at the field due to the high
winds across the deck, the proximity of the deck edge, and the
ships movement. Successful and safe operations in and around
the carrier depend on a coordinated team effort in which all team
members do their job properly. There is no excuse for not
knowing and not using correct procedures around the ship, and
there are no exceptions to this rule!
