Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, many books have been written about the Blue Angels. Most offer cursory details about the team's history, and tend to include the same familiar photographs. Recognizing both this fact and a desire to truly document their history, we have created Blue Angels Decades. Part scrapbook, part reference guide, Blue Angels Decades details the Blue Angels year by year, in ten-year increments. Diving deep into the official Blue Angels' archives, as well as sharing material from team members and their families, Blue Angels Decades tells the story of the world's finest flight demonstration squadron in words in pictures, many never before seen in print. Volume One covers the years 1946 to 1955, and will be released during the Blue Angels' 75th Anniversary celebration at NAS Pensacola, November 5th and 6th. This special, "Plankowner Edition" is limited to just 1,000 copies. Hardback, with sleeve, signed and numbered by the author, and includes a 2" commemorative challenge coin, numbered to match the book number. Destined to become a collector's item.Future Volumes will be release yearly at the Blue Angels Homecoming airshows in Pensacola.

Download or read book US Naval Aviation 1898 1945 written by Leo Marriott and published by Pen and Sword Aviation. This book was released on 2021-06-09 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pictorial history tells the story of US naval aviation from its early beginnings in the 1920s to its dominance in the Pacific theater of WWII. The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor sank or crippled almost all of the battleships in the US Navy’s Pacific Fleet. But the fleet’s aircraft carriers survived—and soon demonstrated the power of US naval aviation. Thanks to pioneering technology and far-sighted pre-war policy, the US Navy had the necessary ships, aircraft, and crews to turn the tide of the Pacific war. With more than 200 rare photographs, Leo Marriott traces the growth of US naval aviation from the flimsy seaplanes of the first years of the twentieth century to the mighty armadas that challenged those of the Japanese and, after the carrier battles at Coral Sea and Midway, led the advance across the Pacific. Marriott puts special focus on the navy’s first aircraft carriers of the 1920s, the tremendous progress made in the decades between the wars in tactics and strategy, and the innovative design of ships and aircraft themselves.

Download or read book Naval Air written by Philip Kaplan and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naval aviation arrived early in the last century in the form of balloons and airships employed by the British Royal Navy for reconnaissance, and interest was stirring in naval circles in a greater aeronautical capacity for the service. Britain's tradition of projecting a global reach through her sea power would, in the view of many, be greatly enhanced by such a capability. Among the first advocates of military aircraft development was British naval minister, Winston Churchill.??Over the course of the last century since this point of inception, huge leaps have been made in the design, development, and performance of naval aircraft. This comprehensive account, brought to us by eminent aviation historian Philip Kaplan, details the journey from origin through early development into wartime deployment. This is carried forward through post-war innovations and into modern conflicts such as the Falklands campaign. Attention is paid to the key landmarks of aviation history, such as Taranto, Pearl Harbour, The Doolittle Raid, the Battle of Midway and the Korean campaign. Reference is also paid throughout to the flying aces; the high points in the combat careers of the greatest naval and marine aviators of the past century. ??Kaplan weaves multiple threads in an effort to produce a comprehensive and detailed history. One of these is the part played by women in the history of flight, detailing a journey characterised by ever-closer involvement at the vanguard of aviation development, showing how societal changes have impacted upon this area in tune with others. Bringing the history up to date, there is a section dedicated to the Helicopter, its varying uses, current disposition and status of the various types in the U.S and British navies. ??Complemented by a collection of interesting photographs, this is sure to appeal to aviation enthusiasts as well as social historians of the past one hundred years; this isn't just a history of the various aircraft but of the people who got them off the ground and flew them into a new century.
Download or read book One Hundred Years of U S Navy Air Power written by Douglas V Smith and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2010-10-15 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published to coincide with the centennial celebration of U.S. Navy Aviation, this book chronicles Navy aviation from its earliest days, before the Navy’s first aircraft carrier joined the fleet, through the modern jet era marked by the introduction of the F-18 Hornet. It tells how naval aviation got its start, profiles its pioneers, and explains the early bureaucracy that fostered and sometimes inhibited its growth. The book then turns to the refinement of carrier aviation doctrine and tactics and the rapid development of aircraft and carriers, highlighting the transition from propeller-driven aircraft to swept wing jets in the period after WW II. Land-based Navy aircraft, rotary-wing aircraft and rigid airships, and balloons are also considered in this sweeping tribute.
