Book excerpt: In 1912, Tony Jannus, a handsome 22 year-old pilot attempts to set a record for the longest flight over water, following the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. Even though he suffers from an acute appendicitis, he doggedly continues the record-breaking flight. Along the way to New Orleans, he meets attractive young women who fall in love with him and further complicate his life. Later, he becomes chief pilot of the first scheduled airline, operating between Tampa and St. Petersburg, Florida. The airline only operates during the tourist season and is highly successful. When the airline closes, Tony and his brother spend the summer flying exhibitions and passengers at Cedar Point on Lake Erie to raise money for an airplane manufacturing plant they intend to open in Baltimore. They build a quality airplane, but their business venture fails because they cannot compete with major airplane manufacturers such as the Wright Brothers and Glenn Curtiss. When they close the plant, Tony goes to work for Glenn Curtiss who sends him to Sevastopol, Russia to train the Czar's naval pilots how to fly seaplanes before the United States enters World War I. While training pilots for the Russian Navy, he is drawn into combat against German submarines, which are sinking Russian warships in the Black Sea. War tests his courage and changes his happy-go-lucky outlook on life. He returns to the United States and finds the woman he wants to marry, but the romance is stormy and they break off the relationship. He goes back to Russia to train pilots in a more advanced airplane. He is despondent in Russia until his former sweetheart writes him and says she loves him. They set a date to marry. Important aviation milestones in this historical novel actually happened. The author has embellished personal relationships and events.

He lived in various places such as, Los Angeles, San Diego, Mexico, Germany, Mauritius, New Zealand, Japan and Jordan. While spending some of his teen years in Mexico he learned about survival and the importance of appreciating and doing the best of what resources he had. When he returned to California he was a skinny kid with dreams and plans to be a Pilot, traveler and adventurer. His wild dreams of becoming an Astronaut and going to the moon where replaced by more realistic dreams such as wanting to become an Airline Pilot. When he turned 18 years old he parted from his parents and had to join the working rat race starting out as a bag-boy at a local Safeway store. His plans to finish College were halted by his traveling bug so he took a break from school, sold his motorcycle, and went back-packing to Europe with only $1,000 Dollars in his pocket, a Euro-Pass train Ticket for a month, and a return airplane ticket home. Unexpected fatherhood in Germany at a young age made him become more responsible and serious about his dreams. When he returned to California he was now a young family man while working as a carpenter in construction and attending evening University and Flight School on weekends. His positive thinking methods, scholarships, grants, and student loans paid off and he graduated with an Airway Science Degree in addition to all his Pilot ratings and Certificates. Thereafter, his life became more of an adventure and he travelled around the world working for various Airlines as a Contract Pilot.

He takes ex-mayor Sheldon’s money to use his helicopter to surveil the ranch where the new acting mayor—Albert—is living. Even hearing the crazy family rumors about Albert, Enrique thinks Sheldon’s infatuation is due to the fact that the ranch is not only the place where Albert lives but also where the sheriff’s partner works. Sheldon’s actions against the sheriff caused the guy to get fired, after all. Enrique figures Sheldon wants to get some sort of blackmail information on them all. Still, money is money, and Enrique needs it. When Enrique’s trips during the day turn up nothing, Sheldon insists Enrique fly by at night. He spots something he can’t explain right before something slams into his bird. Struggling to control his descent, he hits his head. As he slides into unconsciousness, he figures that’s the end.

Enrique knows he can never allow the ex-mayor to find out the truth. Except, Sheldon learns a little something another way and demands Enrique’s help in exposing the monsters. With the help of his new friends, can Enrique shut down Sheldon for good and keep their secrets safe?
Book Synopsis F-14 Tomcat Pilot's Flight Operating Manual Vol. 2 by : U. S. Navy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS VOLUME 2 OF 2. YOU MUST PURCHASE BOTH BOOKS TO HAVE A COMPLETE SET. Developed as both an air superiority fighter and a long-range naval interceptor, Grumman's F-14 Tomcat was the U.S. Navy's primary fighter from 1974 until 2006. Over 700 were built. The F-14 flew its first combat missions shortly after its initial deployment in late 1974, flying in support of the American withdrawal from Saigon. In 1981 it drew first blood, as two F-14s from VF-41 downed two Libyan Su-22s. The plane compiled a notable combat record for the United States in both Gulf Wars and NATO actions in Bosnia. Planes sold to the Shah of Iran prior to his ouster remain the last F-14s in active service, as the U.S. Navy retired it in October 2006. This F-14 pilot's flight operating handbook was originally produced by the U.S. Navy. It has been slightly reformatted but is reproduced here in its entirety. It provides a fascinating view inside the cockpit of one of history's great planes.
