U.S. Navy aviators stand and walk about at the edge of the flight deck on the Navy's first aircraft carrier USS Langley (CV-1) in United States. Visibility is somewhat obscured by mist. They move to the area where sailors are standing slightly below the flight deck. All seem to be awaiting something. Suddenly, the sailors and aviators move up on the deck. One holds a megaphone. Others hold flags. Two officers in white caps converse with an aviator wearing a leather helmet. View from behind the men as they look expectantly out from the ship. Captain and another navy officer, both in whites, look out together. A Vought VE-7 aircraft approaches to land. It's tail hook is clearly seen extended as it passes the camera. But the aircraft had rounded out too high and the hook failed to snag any arresting barriers. It continues on, noses over and somersaults off the end of the flight deck and into the water. Next, an Aeromarine 39b approaches and the pilot loses control as it passes over the start of the flight deck. His right wing dips and contacts the flight deck and he crashes. The pilot is seen in the open cockpit and does not appear to be injured. Deck crewmen run to help the pilot.
