During their sea trials, they turn full right rudder and full left rudder at flank speed.  Insane to watch, but amazing!

It's apparently the most stressful test on the frame and drivetrain of the ship.  I don't imagine it does much good for the blood pressure of the crew either.

 Actually Chairboy, emergency crash backs are... that is going from "all ahead flank" to "all astern flank". The screws cause so much cavitation you can literally feel the stern of the ship bounce.

Now ya brought up another good point.. Wouldnt sea conditions make for interesting situations.

Although, right now we sorta do have that.

Have you seen the way some of these folks drive the CV's? I know i have run into the ships tower several times when a hard right rudder was employed while i was taking off.. lol
