Growler Jams is a YouTube channel hosted by a U.S. Navy pilot flying the EA-18G Growler electronic attack aircraft.
Watching Growler Jams offers an authentic experience of naval aviation, providing unfiltered, real-time cockpit footage that gives a genuine inside look at the complexities and thrilling moments of flying a combat aircraft. The host, a U.S. Navy pilot known as “Pail”, delivers clear and detailed narration that helps viewers understand each phase of the mission. For flight sim enthusiasts, these videos are particularly valuable as they offer practical insights into flight procedures and techniques, enhancing their understanding and making their simulations more realistic and educational.
The channel also features many videos on the T-45 Goshawk. The T-45 Goshawk is designed to provide realistic training for carrier operations, including takeoffs and landings on aircraft carriers. It’s an essential part of the training pipeline for Navy and Marine Corps aviators, helping them develop the skills needed for carrier-based operations.
The best part is that we can recreate almost everything we see on the channel on our flight sim setup. Except for the signature move, of course (please don’t ask about this in the comments).
For that you will need the IndiaFoxtEcho T-45C Goshawk and a Functional Aircraft Carrier for MSFS. Get ready to spend some time learning new techniques and perfecting your skills in what is arguably the most demanding field of aviation.
Fly Navy!
