No battle hatch, it was the deck edge. His leap cleared the safety netting and enabled the 5,000 man crew to practice "man overboard" in the middle of the night. Lucky for him, his training on using the "float coat" vest was more successful. | + | "Spash" - Newbie Pilot had been trained by another pilot to do night time preflight walk arounds on the flight deck during blackout periods.
