I wouldn't say it's a hundred feet away. If it were then it would be the size of a corperate or personal jet and f-14s are smaller than that. I say it's closer to 10 - 15 yrds away. Those guys are pretty close the edge of that carrier. If that plane was within 10 - 20 feet they could some hearing issues, cuz I see no ear protection on any of them, or get pulled in the air foil. Plus if the pilot had to bail from that manuver the wing would hit the side of the carrier if it were that close.
