Description
Ben R. Rich, the former head of Lockheed's Skunk Works, recounts a drama of Cold War confrontation and Gulf War air combat in this personal memoir. The book tells the story of secret aircraft, from the U-2 to the Stealth Fighter, and offers a unique insight into America's most successful aerospace operation.
Rich's account is a fascinating look at the inner workings of a top-secret organisation, where innovation and secrecy went hand in hand. With his years of experience at the forefront of the industry, Rich provides a detailed and engaging narrative that sheds light on the development of some of the most advanced aircraft of the 20th century.
Skunk Works: A Personal Memoir of My Years at Lockheed is a gripping and informative read for anyone interested in aviation, aerospace, or the history of innovation.
