| Does anyone have a favorite aviation book that they would recommend? I was thinking of getting "Bogeys and Bandits", but I saw a few others that seemed pretty good. Any suggestions? |

| "Boyd: The Fighter Pilot Who Changed the Art of War' was fun and enlightning. It's not only a bio. of Col. Boyd but it also contains some elements that make it an modern and American "Art of War". |

Richard Bach, "Stranger to the Ground". Same guy that wrote Jonathon Livingston Seagull, he was an Air Force Reserve (ANG?) F-84 pilot called up during the cold war. Written in the first person, he tells the tale of couriering a package across Europe at night through weather, but that's just the backdrop as throughout the mission (and the book) he reminisces about all sorts of flight related stories. I find that once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. Great story!
