To move the large planes quickly and safely, V-l controls the numerous yellow tractors used for towing aircraft, as well as flight deck operation of the deck edge elevators. Tillie, the mobile crane is also a piecfe of their equipment, and is used to hasten damaged aircraft from the flight deck so that operations con continue with the least inter- ruption. •:i tsmMm —;-i sf y ' SBSvKms;! mmr ' smx9eBTTnB I The handling of aircraft is a never-ending job; it is not unusual that V-l sees the rest of the crew to bed at night and to rise the next morning, working long after the last plane has landed; and then again only a few hours later, before Reveille and the next day ' s air opera- tions.

V-2 handles the ship ' s four steam catapults, the two forward be- ing the most powerful in the Navy today. Furthermore, their six ar- resting engines and two barricade engines absorb the force and speed of landing aircraft, and can stop a heavy A3D Sky-warrior in less than 250 feet. Addition- ally, V-2 can rig a barri- cade in o few minutes to halt a plane unable to moke a normal arresting ending.
