Wasn't Snort - two other guys - I heard their names once in the video I think.
Chuck - thanks!

Was Snort a famous F-14 jockey? Is he the one that did the carrier fly-by?

Dale "Snort" Snodgrass. He has more hours in the F-14 than anyone and the pilot of the famous carrier fly by. Seems like a cool guy, lots of info on the internet about him.

Snort - CAPT Dale Snodgrass is a legend... Here's a video of a talk he gave at Air and Space in DC. It's on the long side but well worth it!

He is one of the originators of the Navy's Legacy flights - a current day fighter paired up with a Navy warbird. As Commander, Fighter Wings Atlantic he flew the "Flight of the Twin-engined Cats" which was a Tomcat paired up with an F7F Tigercat. These first dissimilar formation flights lead to the Air Force picking up the idea for it's Heritage Flight Program. Snort is currently a solo pilot on the Black Diamond Jet Team flying a MiG-17.
