Final checks on the Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 211 Checkmates F/A-18F before it is connected by the green shirts to the shuttle of the catapult. The red shirts ordnance sailors have checked the Super Hornet load (in this case the fueltanks and AIM-9X) or while the sole yellow shirt crewman is the aircraft handler/director that oversees the movement of the aircraft and all other shirts on and near the aircraft he is directing.
