How did John McCain qualify for flight training with an Annapolis class ranking of 894 out of 899?
The answer appears to lie in the fact that both his father and grandfather were high ranking Naval Officers. John also crashed five military aircraft during his tenure as a Naval Flight Officer. Each time the Navy quickly cleared him and kept John flying. To be fair Three of the crashes appear to be John's fault. The rocket mishap on his aircraft carrier could not have been prevented by McCain. And it is uncertain whether his lack of flying skill led to John's being shot down in Viet Nam. Forest
