Could someone please tell me the definition of a FENAB? Thanks, I¹ve had
a devil of a time trying to find it so this is my last resort.

Why, do you have one coming up?

Basically, it's a board that is convened if you do something so bad
in an aircraft (a mishap may or may not be involved) that you might
lose your wings. Sometimes referred to as "the long green table."
(Although that phrase can refer to a lot of other things).

Also, you misspelled it, it's FNAEB (even though everybody pronounces
it "fenab"), short for Field Naval Aviator Evaluation Board.

For more information than you wanted to know, try a google search
(web and groups). I found the governing instruction on this webpage:

http://www.combatindex.com/mil_docs/opnav_5400.html (skip down to
5400.109) This may be a bit tedious, like learning the English
language by reading a dictionary.

Hope this helps some.


By the way I meant to say FIELD Naval Aviator Evaluation Board... (FNAEB).
My apologies.
