Book Synopsis Innovation in Carrier Aviation by : Thomas C. Hone
Book excerpt: This study is about innovations in carrier aviation and the spread of those innovations from one navy to the navy of a close ally. The innovations are the angled flight deck ; the steam catapult ; and the mirror and lighted landing aid that enabled pilots to land jet aircraft on a carrier's short and narrow flight deck.
