The men and women at the United States Marine Corps don’t mess around. They are highly trained professionals who spend years and years mastering the techniques of flying and landing. They study all the methods and engineering that goes into manning and building planes. By the time they set out in one of those amazing pieces of hardware they know their aircraft inside and out. They have to – these planes cost millions and millions of dollars to produce. These state of the art airplanes can fly hundreds of miles per hour, perform loops, and even fly vertically across the blue skies above. They’re designed for durability and power.
Captain William Mahoney is one of those men who trained in the art of manning fighter planes. He did, however, learn the hard way that at the end of the day a machine is a machine and things can go wrong. When he went out for a routine flight he learned that this landing gear was faulty. What came next was an incredible mission that required skill, focus, and attention. In order to protect the aircraft and save his own life he had to follow directions quickly, use his own judgement, and do whatever it took to be safe. Did he do that?

Ask anyone who has ever been employed in the military – training for the United States Marine Corps takes years. It requires significant time and energy to master all the techniques that are expected of you at the academy. It’s certainly not for everybody nor is it for the faint of hearted. Nobody knew that better than Captain William Mahoney when he was forced to act fast and employ his special skills to save his own life. Most of us would probably panic when put in the situation that Capt. Mahoney found himself in. He, however, knew he had to move quickly when he suddenly found himself in a dire life or death situation.
