Description

The thirty-year period that marked the advent of the supersonic jet in military aviation was a particularly dangerous one in the lives of flight pilots.

As pilots gradually learned to navigate speeds up to Mach II, their courage and stamina were tested to the limit.

This engaging memoir relays the life story of a famed pilot who flew supersonic jets for the United States Air Force during the Cold War through Vietnam and beyond.

Though the story of one man, it reflects upon the ingenuity and sacrifice of so many veterans who worked during one of the most significant periods in aviation history.
