The video is not great (auto focus would help) but still glad I got it. The official change of command happens in air. The voices are the guys in the jets, first the old CO reliving his order, Scott reciving his orders, and the CAG (who oversees all the squadrons on a carrier) telling Spill (Scott) he has the lead, he is free to detach, and to kick ass! I wish I zoomed back sooner to give viewers a better perspective of the jets flying RIGHT over the hanger, it was so cool. Fortunatly Scott's brother got a better take so they have a better video of it. I would like to mention that the CAG is ridding shot gun (I believes he is no longer qualified to fly, Scott answered a lot of my questions about things but it is easy to mix it up) , the jet is being operated by a female pilot from another squadron. Yeah lady pilots!! And it sounds like the old CO's call sign is 'booger.' The movie Topgun got call signs all wrong, they are not cool, they are actually suppose to be a dis to the pilot:-)
I am so thrilled to have been there! I can't believe we ever even considered not going. The ceremony, the party, it was all so great! Lots of pictures to come:-)
