About the Book

There are always so many ways to die during wartime--some abrupt, some lingering, some the result of carelessness. The survivors were those, like the author, who were willing to take risks but always planned ahead. Preparation for war holds its own dangers--particularly for the Navy carrier pilots who were assigned the task of patrolling the skies conducting airborne spying, --of becoming the eyes and ears of the nation against treacherous enemies. In this tale of the life of a much decorated spy in the sky, civilians live for the moment and learn techniques of piloting skill under extreme conditions that allowed the author to live out a normal life span. It was always much skill and some luck that brought Scott Beat safely through his 27 years in the Navy. Scott Beat, U.S. Navy Retired, experienced four and a half decades of piloting aircraft accruing more than 18,000 pilot hours. He made arrested landings on more than 20 different U. S. Navy attack carriers and was an experienced air warfare officer who specialized in aircraft carrier operations, conventional, atomic, and nuclear weapons delivery. He flew more than 200 combat missions in Southeast Asia and made close to 1,000 arrested carrier landings. He was awarded more than six rows of medals and campaign ribbons. Carrier Pilot Beat is a Centurion on the USS Yorktown (CVA-10) and the USS Bon Homme Richard (CVA-31). Additionally, he performed more than 200 arrested landings on the USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CVA- 42) to become a Double Centurion there. He qualified for and was granted the opportunity to fly the U-2 toward the end of his career, a fitting reward for his years of dedicated service.
