... Your Fall reading assignment. Speaking of blundering around, I blundered into this bin of pilot books. "Last of the Bush Pilots" is a "hang on by the seat of your pants" wild ride. Dramamine recommended. Thanks in advance for posting your favorite aviation books 🛫 ML

fullbore115b Mark I was a 3rd Generation Naval Aviator, and read a lot of aviation books. "My Secret War" by A-1 pilot Richard Drury is my favorite. It's a must read imo. Also "My Logbook" by Gunther Rall is amazing. 2 likes

julesthrillers Do you collect pilot oriented books? I live in an area that is upper middle class and they have real libraries in their homes. I sometimes find really nice collector items for $.50. I'm trained as historian and read everything. Especially ones that could be used for referencing. Those are kind I want to preserve for historic values. I've gifted a couple to Jack Carr as they were about Mogadishu, written by SEAL and Benghazi's 13 hours, signed by 3 of 5 survivors of original CIA protective team. I have now a text by an Orr Kelly, a defense correspondent, author on Spec Ops.Did 4 previous works, two on history of SEALs.1996, titled FROM A DARK SKY, the story of US Air Force Special Operations. Want to say I think your background is one of Special Forces.would you be interested in owning it? Want it to go to someone who could appreciate its value. I'm an old lady, working on clearing 18 yrs of accumulation. Would you be interested? This guy has the military connections to write something like this. Let me know. I discovered folks can leave messages on Instagram On Twitter also Julie Watson 1 like
