Educational

Just a great book, it flows from the first page to the last. I have talked to a lot of people who flew for the navy and they say it's right on. If your thinking about naval aviation, This should be your first text.

Road to a good Read

I believe this is the best book I have ever read. I am a young aviator myself and it was truly, just, WOW! I especially like it because I did a book report on it and i got an A+! If you want a good book, look no further. Take the Road to Gold.

An in depth look at the navy flight program.

I loved the book, it was a right on description of what I went through. If anyone is looking for any info. on the basic flight program of the navy elite, this is the book.
