Planes Pushed Off Aircraft Carrier by Disgruntled Crew (1972)


Navy Times Are Changin’ (North Chicago, IL), vol. 3, no. 2, May 1972, p. 2. “A brother on base heard from a friend on board the [USS] Enterprise, who said that the Captain got so pissed off about people pushing planes over the side that if it happened one more time, they were going home. And shortly, as the biggest, most expensive plane on the ship sank slowly into the sea, the Big E came around and headed for port.”



Navy Times Are Changin’ (North Chicago, IL), vol. 3, no. 3, June 1972, p. 10. “Many people voiced their doubts about the factualness of an article in the last NTAC reporting planes being pushed of [sic] the decks of the ENTERPRISE. Well, we did a little checking, and you were right.”
