Description
Flying Through the Ranks: The Extraordinary Experiences of Airmen to Air Marshals from the Cold War to the Gulf
This anthology draws inspiration from the 'I Learnt About Flying from That' articles that have been featured in the RAF Flight Safety magazine Air Clues since the 1940s. It brings together the stories of men and women from all ranks of the Royal Air Force, revealing their experiences in both war and peace.
From the development of the RAF to the making of the Cold War warrior, these rousing stories of courage and leadership, risk-taking and pressure, invention and adventure, expose the human side of the flying business. With themes of exhilaration, luck, and the unspoken bond of respect that binds aviation professionals together, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the history of the RAF and the people who served in it.
