Description

The Wind Beneath My Wings by Susan Ottaway The story of Concorde's pilots is often overshadowed by the aircraft itself, but one man's remarkable life is a testament to the bravery and skill of those who flew her. John Hutchinson's journey, from his birth in India to his final flight, is a tale of adventure, danger, and personal tragedy. This biography offers a unique insight into the life of one of the few Concorde pilots to gain public prominence, and the challenges he faced both in and out of the cockpit. With its blend of history, aviation expertise, and personal narrative, The Wind Beneath My Wings is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of Concorde and the men who flew her. Susan Ottaway's writing brings John Hutchinson's story to life, shedding light on a fascinating and often overlooked chapter in aviation history.
