    A U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet (modex 110) is being prepared for launch on an aircraft carrier flight deck. Deck crew in various colored jerseys are performing pre-launch checks around the aircraft, which has two crew members visible in the cockpit. Text markings on the fuselage identify crew names including 'LT RODELA FLO', 'LT MITCHELL PETE', and 'AT3 PITTS ANCHORAGE, AK'.
    A U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet (bureau number 404) is captured launching or departing from an aircraft carrier flight deck over open ocean. The aircraft has its landing gear fully extended and is in a steep nose-up attitude, consistent with a catapult launch sequence. The image is taken from a low angle on the carrier deck, providing a dramatic perspective of the aircraft against a partly cloudy sky.
