The series is set to air on TLC in the fall of 2001. Most documentaries on aircraft carriers focus only on aviation, which is an awesome aspect and, certainly, the biggest part of the carrier. Roberto Febus, an information systems technician with the carrier's Combat Systems Department. I just talked to the guy, not the camera. Even though the production will focus on the entire ship, Felter did admit the flight deck still held much of his interest.
Film makers tend to be cocky.
I don't consider myself overly cocky, but I didn't think the flight deck was going to be any big deal. I was blown away. I'm really surprised there aren't more injuries and accidents. I, myself, never having done a documentary strictly on the military, thought everyone was going to be really regimented and kind of uptight. I found out it's not that way at all.
