Book excerpt: 'COMPLETELY RIVETING. AS GRIPPING AS ANY TOM CLANCY THRILLER' JEREMY CLARKSON January 1972: the tiny Central American country of Belize is threatened with invasion by battle-hardened Guatemalan paratroops. Only HMS Ark Royal, an aging British aircraft carrier and her squadrons of fast jets and helicopters stand in her way. But as the great ship and her air group pound their way across the Atlantic the enemy are already deploying their air force to remote jungle strips close to the border. In Belize they prepare for the worst. Only a bold gamble looks likely to save the day. But it will require every ounce of skill and daring from the carrier's small band of aviators. The race is on. Drawing on brand new interviews with the participants Phoenix Squadron tells the riveting true story of a little known Cold War confrontation for the first time. 'A page-turning thriller of a book ... the story never lets up, ... a gripping, hugely entertaining book' Sunday Telegraph 'Stirring, gritty, punchy and compelling ... Phoenix Squadron succeeds on many levels ... Highly recommended.' Aircraft Magazine 'A truly outstanding narrative every ... there is no better read' Aviation News 'Reads more like a Tom Clancy novel than a history book' Daily Telegraph 'A gutsy you-are-there story that throbs with the sound and fury of carrier operations' Robert Gandt

Book excerpt: January 1972: the tiny outpost of British Honduras is threatened with imminent invasion by battle-hardened, US-trained Guatemalan paratroops. Britain's response must be immediate and decisive. But there is only one deterrent the government can offer: HMS Ark Royal, once the Navy's most powerful warship, now a white elephant on the verge of being scrapped. To save the small colony, she must launch a pair of Buccaneer fighter bombers on an unprecedented long-range mission. But first the old carrier must make a high-speed, 1,500 mile dash across the Atlantic towards the Gulf of Mexico. The odds of arriving in time are very slim indeed... Drawing on extensive first-hand accounts and previously unseen, classified documents, Rowland White has pieced together one of the most audacious and thrilling missions of post-war British military history.

Download or read book Hawkeye written by Giora Even-Epstein and published by Grub Street Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fast-moving account that details Even-Epstein’s experiences particularly in the intense conflicts of 1967, the Six Day War, and 1973, the Yom Kippur War. For more than thirty years, Giora Even-Epstein flew fighters for the Israel Air Force, achieving recognition as a highly skilled military aviator and the highest-scoring jet-mounted ace with the most number of confirmed victories in the French Mirage. Having overcome numerous hurdles just to learn how to fly, he went on to compile a record of Arab MiGs and Sukhoi kills that bettered any other combat aviators’ tally in the entire world. The reader shares the cockpit with him as he describes every action he undertook with 101 and 105 Squadron, including the greatest jet-versus-jet air battle in history with four MiG-21 kills in one engagement. His final score was seventeen. After his last battle he became commander of the First Jet Squadron, 117, began civilian flying, retrained to command 254 MMR Squadron in the 1982 Lebanon War, and flew the F-16 at the age of fifty before retirement. Along the way he met numerous fighter pilot legends such as Douglas Bader, Al Deere, Pierre Clostermann and Randy Cunningham. Affable and enthusiastic, Giora gained the nickname “Hawkeye” because of his amazing vision of more than 20/15, enabling him to pick out enemy aircraft long before his squadron mates. His story is of one man’s unfaltering dedication to his dreams and his country. “A book filled with stories about his time as a paratrooper and jet pilot that keeps you on the edge of your chair.” —AviationBookReviews.com
Book Synopsis On a Wing and a Prayer by : C. S. Peters
Download or read book On a Wing and a Prayer written by C. S. Peters and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tense, Exciting, Absorbing, Thoughtful. It is 1940 and the Battle of Britain is raging fiercely in the skies above Great Britain. On a Wing and a Prayer is the story of James Graham, a young Fighter Pilot, flying Hurricanes in the daily combat of the Battle. The novel vividly describes James's apprehension and fears of being the "new boy" on the Squadron. Through passages of descriptive, exciting, action-packed narrative, the story takes the reader - as if in the cockpit with James during dogfight action - to when he becomes an experienced and seasoned Fighter Pilot fighting for survival. During this time he also has to come to terms with the loss of Squadron comrades and friends and other personal tragedy. Through its characters, the novel also tells what it was like, not only for James's family but, also, for civilians, evacuees, rescue workers, those working for the War Effort and for all those in Britain as they awaited - expected to be invaded and over-run. On a Wing and a Prayer is the first part of the compelling story of the Graham family as they and others live and survive through the Second World War.
