"[The author] has, much better than I've been able to do, drafted a compelling conversation that trumpets the fact that this book is far more than a collection of aircraft adventures and personal triumphs--just the kind of image I'd like to convey to an audience much wider than aviation buffs and fellow flyers"--Andy Fraser
