Aircraft carriers are the most exciting places to work. Carrier aviation is the most demanding of all human endeavors. Naval Aviation Excellence provides a global journey into the world of pilots, engineers, mechanics and experimental flight testing. It is full of humor and adventure, focuses on the excellence of others and honors the lives of tragically lost comrades. The odyssey starts at NASA but quickly spreads globally after flight school. Aircraft featured include the A-6E Intruder, F/A-18 Hornet / Super Hornet and the F-14 Tomcat along with the aircraft carriers USS Midway and USS Kitty Hawk. Naval Aviation Excellence provides unforgettable glimpses into the world of military aviation that sustains global peace, 24/7. A more narrative version of this material including additional personal experiences is available in Inside Naval Aviation: A Memoir. It is available in ebook, print and audiobook formats.
