Naval Flight Officer
Hi, My name is Peg Klein. I live in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Soon I am
moving to a very large ship and will live on the ship for several months. The
ship is named after President Dwight D Eisenhower.
I am married and have two children who also love airplanes. I do not pilot the
airplane, I am a Mission Specialist.... Just like on the Space Shuttle, not
everyone on the shuttle pilots it, some of us do other work that can only be
done in an airplane in the air.
I just finished flying the Navy jet called the E-6. It looks like it carries
passengers, but it talks to submarines and lets the President talk to the
submarines if he has to.
I have been in the Navy for a long time, so my son and daughter have gotten
used to moving a lot. My son was born in Hawaii and my daughter was born
in Maryland. Our whole family lived in Japan for two years, it was very
exciting to see another country with my family.
I have taken my son and daughter into our flight simulator, now my daughter
wants to be a fighter pilot, like Tom Cruise in Top Gun!
I really like working with people who fly airplanes. When I live on the ship, I
get to watch planes take off and land on the ship. At night, this is a beautiful
and amazing sight.
I reported have recently reported to the aircraft carrier the USS Dwight D
Eisenhower. We left Norfolk in the fall on 2006 and will be home in the spring
of 2007. How's that for a long vacation!!
Last week I got to take my first flight in a strike fighter jet. I rode with
VFA-103 in the back of an F/A-18F, the Super Hornet. We did a fly by of the
ship, it was wonderful.
I was recently selected to go back to the United States Naval Academy to be
the Commandant of Midshipmen. Almost 30 years ago, I started college
there in Annapolis. Now I will be the equivalent of the Dean of Students. It's
a great school to learn how much you can achieve. I made a lot of friends
there!
