Summary edit

Description
English: Persian Gulf (Jan. 18, 2005) – Lt. James Keating signals crew members during a testing of the Mobile Visual Landing Aid System (MOVLAS) during a general quarters flight deck drill aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75). MOVLAS is an emergency signaling system that is used when the primary optical landing system is rendered inoperative. The MOVLAS system is designed to present glide slope information to the pilot of an approaching aircraft in the same visual form presented by the Fresnel Lens Optical Landing System (FLOLS) mounted on the starboard side of the ship's flight deck. Carrier Air Wing Three (CVW-3) is embarked aboard Truman and is providing close air support and conducting intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions over Iraq. The Truman Strike Group is on a regularly scheduled deployment in support of the Global War on Terrorism. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 3rd Class Craig R. Spiering (RELEASED)
