The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) entertains distinguished visitors to include Peyton Manning of the Denver Broncos with flight operations and a fly-by that breaks the sound barrier (signaled with flares).
The video was shot from guided-missile cruiser USS Mobile Bay (CG 53) in restricted manoeuvring about 500 yards from John C. Stennis’ port side.
