Watching Top Gun
Scott Kartvedt watched Top Gun in 1986 just like many other young men but then went on to be a Navy pilot, something many of us just dreamed of. He applied to and was selected to the elite Blue Angels air demonstration team where he served as the number seven, six, and number five solo pilot before returning to the fleet. There, he served throughout five combat deployments flying 91 combat missions and accumulating over 6,300 flight hours, 658 carrier arrested landings on eleven aircraft carriers.

Led to a Navy Career
Throughout his career, he faced near-death experiences, lost women and men he served with, and led squadrons through battle, all at the same time as developing a culture of excellence far and wide he went.

He went on to command VFA-83, an award-winning FA/18 Squadron, and served as the Navy’s first commanding officer of the only F-35C Stealth Strike Fighter Squadron in the USA before retiring from the Navy and returning to civilian life.

Going Full Throttle into Civilian Life
After that, he began his second career as a professional pilot. He became an inspirational speaker and instructor and served and still serves on the Board of Directors for the Blue Angels Foundation. Scott also joined the Patriot Jet Team, the only civilian jet demonstration team in North The united states, as their number 5 pilot.

And Onto the Big Screen
Through that position, he had the opportunity to train one of the vital actors and fly as a stunt pilot in the new Top Gun Maverick movie, bringing his journey full circle.

You’ll laugh, you can learn, you can cry, and you can soar at full throttle through Scott’s story of a life lived at high-G, and you will not need to stop reading until you get to the final page.
