The immersive Virtual Flight Deck Operations exhibit puts visitors inside a C-2 Greyhound aircraft for a briefing on flight deck operations and a simulated flight to the carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74). Once “on board,” they are treated to the sights, sounds and sensations of standing on the deck of an aircraft carrier using footage shot especially for the Museum complemented by wind blowing across the flight deck, the smell of jet fumes, and the rumble of F/A-18 Hornet catapult launches and traps.
