Discover the incredible true story of James Swett, a 24-year-old Navy mechanic who solved a crisis that was killing American pilots in 1943. While 50 MIT engineers struggled to fix exploding fuel tanks on F6F Hellcat fighters, this high school dropout from Indiana saw what they missed. His unauthorized solution saved an estimated 394 pilots during WWII and revolutionized aircraft fuel tank safety forever.
This is the story of how one man's courage to break the rules and think differently changed the course of naval aviation history. James Swett's foam-lined fuel tank innovation is still used in modern aircraft today—yet his name remained classified for nearly 50 years.
