Pacific Ocean (Jan. 18, 2005) -- USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70) crew members observe the arrested landing of an F/A-18C Hornet assigned to the "Argonauts" of Strike Fighter Squadron One Four Seven (VFA-147), during the first day of flight operations aboard the ship. The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is participating in a Joint Task Force Exercise (JTFEX), the ship's final step before leaving on its scheduled deployment. Carl Vinson is scheduled to arrive in Norfolk, Va., upon completion of her deployment in preparation for her refuel and complex overhaul. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate Airman Chris M.
