Rob Williams Naval F-18 Super-Hornet Aviator, U.S. Naval Academy “SystemsGowas one of the most profitable components of my educational experience and a major driving factor for the path that I have pursued since. Currently in the Advanced Jet Training phase of Naval Flight school, I will be flying the F-18 Super Hornet beginning in May for my career. From an outsider's perspective, it seems nearly impossible that a group of teenagers could ever accomplish such great feats. The responsibilities that we had and problems that we dealt with every day in that class carried right over to my experience as a Physics Major at the Naval Academy. Taught how to approach situations with an abstract point of view, we learned to think out of the box and to be resourceful with what we had at our disposal. While a technical class such as this may not be beneficial for all high school students, I believe that anybody hoping to pursue a career in science or engineering can build a great foundation for their future through this program.”
37. Benjamin Williams U.S. Air Force Academy pursuing Astronautical Engineering – Propulsion Team Lead for 2010 Falcon Launch “Taking on the rigors of design and development, FHSAP provided me the opportunity to learn how to learn.
