I have written a novel about the Marine Security Guard Det and the takeover of the US embassy in New Delhi in the near future. Several of the chapters take place aboard the USS Reagan, and one is in a F-22 Raptor. And I feel these chapters are quite weak. I just don't have the background to feel confident in writing them. So I would really appreciate it if someone could take a look at them and let me know some better terminology or ship and fighter characterstics to give this better verismilitude.
Any, any help would be appreciated. I am just a grunt who really knows very little about aviation other than jumping out of planes and helos.
The chapters in question are 31, 37, 41, and 50. There are a few other chapters with the pilot in them, but those are while on liberty in Thailand and while trying to get back to the ship.
They can be found on my personal website http://www.thefewthebook.com/ . This is not a commercial website--nothing is for sale there, nor are there any links!
Anyone else who wants to comment on any aspect of the novel is also very welcome.
Thanks!
